• The ability to assess an existing environment and turn findings into practical improvements

• Strong stakeholder-management, communication and influencing skills

• Experience coaching engineers and driving adoption across delivery teams

• Exposure to GitHub Copilot or other AI-assisted engineering tools would be advantageous

Contract details

• Initial six-month contract with potential for extension
