Responsibilities will include:

• Lead a programming team at technical and personnel level
• Mentor junior programmers in the team and plan their skill development

• Setup processes while working in collaboration with other teams to meet the technical needs of the project
• Plan and evaluate the work performed by team and analyse the impact on the project
• Identify risks involved with the development of the project and provide solutions to resolve complex problems
• Provide estimate time to complete programming tasks and goals and be committed to meet them
