Who are you?

You are an independent and quick learner comfortable working with minimal guardrails.  You prefer to be hands-on with technology – developing proofs of concept, analyzing data, implementing APIs & services.  You enjoy writing code as much as you enjoy interacting with customers to close a deal. You take time to truly understand customer and market imperatives (pain points) with a keen eye to connect problems to technology capabilities and solutions.  In the absence of readily available information, you initiate collaboration with other groups to find your answers. You are comfortable working with customers and presenting to stakeholders at all levels.  Working in a large organization while keeping an agile mindset is not an issue for you.
