- 10+ years of software development experience, including roles such as developer, team lead, project manager or line manager.
- Proven people leadership experience managing medium to large engineering teams and driving delivery across multiple releases.
- Strong results-oriented leadership style: proactive, empowering, pragmatic with a focus on sustainable engineering solutions.
- Demonstrated experience with performance-critical software, real-time constraints, and system-level optimization.
- Excellent communication skills and the ability to collaborate with product, architecture and business stakeholders.
- Clear acceleration and measurable increase in AI-assisted development productivity (e.g., reduced time-to-fix, improved test coverage, faster performance tuning) in the first 12 months.
- High team engagement and retention, with defined career progression paths and measurable improvements in individual development plans.
- Successful prototypes or initial contributions to 6G Layer 1 concepts and demonstrators
