  • Meet with fellow engineers and discuss technical challenges, and write down their requirements
  • Self-manage a small TODO list


Qualifications:

The type of person who will succeed in this role will have demonstrated their skills with previous projects in most of these domains, but an ability to learn and grow can offset a lack of experience in a specific area.
