    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.

    • Daily scrum call, followed by work on projects picked up or personal development. If you are on call then you can be called in during the day and join a meeting to solve a problem. If you chose to there are lots of ERGs (employee resource groups) that you can join and work with more.

    Skills
