  • Ability to identify risks for scalability and suggest mitigation
  • Ability to define a procedure and process to ensure solution delivery
  • Ability to confidently demo solutions for clients
  • Ability to take any business requirement and translate it into options for the client, explaining the pros/cons of each
  • Ability to build and maintain relationships with customers, in any capacity
  • Ability to confidently scrutinize project constraints to analyze alternatives, mitigate risks, and conduct process re-engineering as necessary
  • Comfortability challenging assumptions and pushing back on ideas or solutions that aren’t best practices
  • Comfortability meeting ad hoc with clients to get a sense of technical requirements
  • Organized and disciplined about tracking projects, delivery, and timelines
  • Gives estimates for delivery times and work estimates that match reality
  • Communicate clearly and succinctly via email, Slack, or over the phone
