- Experience using development management tools such as Jira, Slack, DevOps or equivalent.

- Minimum 5-10 years of software development experience, including at least 1 year in a development management role (managing people, processes or both).

- Experience managing a team of 5-10 members, including mentoring, performance reviews and fostering collaboration.

- Solid experience with Agile methodologies (Scrum/Kanban), with demonstrated ability to manage sprints, backlog prioritization and agile rituals.

- Experience working in a multi-culture and multi-national environment (e.g., distributed teams, cross-border communication, diverse cultural contexts).

- Strong understanding of AWS cloud platform: experience with core AWS services (e.g., EC2, S3, RDS, IAM/VPC), cloud architecture design, cost and performance optimization, security best practices, and ideally hands-on operational experience.

Preferred Qualifications

- Bachelor’s or master’s degree in computer science, Engineering, or a related field.

- Leadership that fosters autonomy, accountability and continuous improvement in your team.

- Comfort operating at both strategic (product vision) and tactical (sprint execution) levels.

- Adaptability to work in a dynamic, multi-cultural environment and to lead change.

- Strong sense of ownership: you deliver results, you iterate, you improve.
