  • Support Agile ceremonies (sprint planning, retrospectives, demos) and ensure continuous alignment with business outcomes.
  • Partner with architects, data stewards and technical leads on solution design, ETL/ELT workflows, migration strategy, and technical feasibility.
  • Identify and drive process improvements, automation opportunities, and delivery efficiencies across GCC operations.
  • Contribute to strengthening the GCC governance framework and delivery best practices.

  • Working knowledge of cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and migration approaches (re-host, re-platform, re-architect).
  • Experience with data pipelines, data lakes, ETL frameworks, and SQL/Python-based data workflows is a strong plus.
  • Ability to coordinate multiple streams of work and manage complex dependencies.
  • Excellent stakeholder communication and collaboration skills across technical and business teams. Responsiveness to immediate client needs and relationship building.
  • Strong problem-solving and decision-making abilities with a focus on delivery outcomes.
  • PMP, CSM, or other relevant certifications are a plus.
Success factors –

  • On-time, high-quality delivery of applications and cloud projects with minimal escalations.
