  • Data modeling, process mapping, and documentation skills are essential.
  • Proposal & Documentation Expertise
  • Skilled in writing functional specifications, proposals, SOWs, solution designs, and UAT scripts.

  • High attention to detail with a commitment to producing accurate and professional documentation.
  • Communication & Interpersonal Skills
