Strong knowledge of project management methodologies, tools, and techniques, such as PMBOK, Scrum, Kanban, Jira, Confluence, etc. Excellent communication, interpersonal, and leadership skills, with the ability to work effectively with diverse teams and stakeholders. Strong analytical, problem-solving, and decision-making skills, with the ability to handle multiple tasks and prioritize effectively.
