• Team Collaboration and Engagement: Foster strong collaboration among the tech team, key stakeholders (including Agathe and Vale), ensuring that everyone is synchronized and motivated. The tech team should be actively engaged and view their tasks as challenging yet rewarding opportunities.

• Strong product-sense, user-centricity, ability to drive ideation and wireframing with your Product Designer.
