Are you the person we’re looking for?

Big picture thinker with laser focus. You have a unique ability to see both the forest and the trees. It’s what sets you apart from the rest. You start with a good understanding of the broader strategy, zoom in to assess one particular aspect of that strategy, and then zoom back out to see how changes to that particular area will affect the broader process.

Expert relationship cultivator. Product managers think you’re a good partner -- because you are. Developers feel you respect their opinions -- because you do. You’re a true people person, a natural collaborator, and a highly sought-after resource.

Quality orientation. You have proven success at writing quality user stories and analysis deliverables through the application of established criteria like INVEST and SMART. Your work is thoughtful, timely and valuable to the team.

Resourcefulness and application. At Aptos, we have a pioneering spirit -- when we have questions, we find answers; when we’re faced with challenges, we find solutions. We turn to a variety of resources, including our own colleagues, our professional network, the Internet, articles and books -- whatever helps us get the job done. But it’s not just about using a variety of resources to gain knowledge -- it’s also about applying that knowledge to other areas of the job or business where it might make sense.
