The candidate is a strong critical thinker who communicates effectively with both technical and business audiences, works closely across organizational boundaries, and builds trusted partnerships within FCAT and across the enterprise.

• Exceptional critical?thinking and systems?thinking skills, with a shown ability to quickly understand complex system interdependencies and solve ambiguous business problems
• Demonstrated ability to frame problems effectively, consistently asking “What problem are we trying to solve?” and challenging assumptions before solution design
• Strong bias toward MVP?driven, phased delivery, with experience breaking large initiatives into incremental releases and avoiding big?bang approaches
• Confirmed ability to translate between business intent and technical execution, converting loosely defined requirements into precise, actionable technical direction
• Ability to serve as the main contact across between product, engineering, architecture, and team members, clearly representing both business objectives and technical implementation details (including third-party clients when needed)
• Highly proficient in user and system story writing, UML sequence diagrams, and system/workflow documentation
• Experience leading or influencing multi-functional teams across define?build?test cycles and the full product lifecycle, from concept through production deployment
• Working knowledge of APIs, REST, SOAP, and JSON
• Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS) and SaaS environments preferred
• Deep understanding of Agile development methodologies
• Experience in financial services with brokerage domain experience a plus

• Lead multi-functional collaboration across product, engineering, architecture, QA, and operations to define, deliver, and evolve scalable solutions
• Drive clarity across ambiguous problem spaces by framing business intent, defining system requirements, and shaping pragmatic solution approaches
• Evaluate solution alternatives and tradeoffs across cost, scalability, risk, and time?to?market
• Negotiate terms and conditions of vendor agreements
• Assess outcomes, measure impact, and inform roadmap evolution based on data and feedback
