- Solid understanding of cloud-native architectures (e.g., microservices, CI/CD, container orchestration).
- Track record of technical leadership and mentoring in a fast-paced, agile environment.
- Deep understanding of Scrum practices, and ability to work at both the tactical and strategic team level, partnering with the Product Manager of payments to deliver new features and capabilities.
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with a servant-leader mindset.
