Agile Mindset: A strong track record of operating effectively in blended, multidisciplinary agile environments, adapting smoothly to legislative or policy-driven changes. Desirable Skills & Experience Broader Tech Stack: Experience or familiarity with Ruby on Rails, to assist in migrating, maintaining, or integrating with existing Legacy Front End estates.
