- Strong facilitation, decision-making, and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to build alignment across executives, ESRD business leaders and staff, technical teams, vendors, and end users.
- Working knowledge of Agile/Scrum and product lifecycle practices, including backlog management, sprint planning, demonstrations, user acceptance testing, release planning, change management, adoption, and continuous improvement.
