  • Database Architects – Figure out how your database needs to be structured, developed and optimised. 
  • DevOps – Combine the software development and operations disciplines to shorten the development process by implementing procedures and technologies, e.g. CI/CD pipelines, that make the releasing of new features far more efficient than traditional approaches.
  • Technical Consultant – Have deep domain knowledge to review the current setup (systems, processes and people), identify potential issues and recommend appropriate action to support your future business goals.  
  • Product Managers – Use their comprehensive subject matter expertise to strategically define products and related materials – ensuring the right products are in the right hand of the right people.
  • Product Owners – Use their targeted subject matter expertise to create detailed user stories and oversee the delivery of a product against its roadmap and maximise value for stakeholders and, importantly,  users.
