Participate in short sprint planning cycles, scope definition, and tracking of requirements through execution

Collaborate on an ongoing basis with development teams using AI tools to automatically convert specifications into code

Maintain consistency and quality of deliverables, including documentation and change control throughout the project lifecycle

At least 3 years of experience specifying complex information systems (significant advantage for experience in the public sector or large organizations)

Practical understanding of cloud architectures and AWS-based projects (significant advantage)

Familiarity with Spec-Driven / Model-Based Development
