What You Bring
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Business, or related discipline.
- 0-2 years’ experience coordinating software or digital projects (internships count).
- Familiarity with Agile, Scrum, or Lean - maybe you earned a Scrum Master badge, maybe you devoured the guide.
- Working knowledge of Jira, Trello, Asana, or their cousins.
- Comfort interpreting basic analytics: burndown charts, cumulative flow, Net Promoter Score.
- Articulate communicator - spoken, written, and visual (think slide decks, Miro boards, Loom videos).
