At Egypt Tech Centers you will be managed by and mentored by top tech leaders in both Portugal and Egypt.

- Use your Agile experience to mentor teams on Agile approaches such as BDD, TDD, Refactoring, CI/CD, Pair Programming, User Stories, and Simple Design, and how to effectively use Agile business/team-facing practices such as roadmap planning, iteration planning, User Stories, and Retrospectives
- Build company-wide solutions and frameworks that can be used as mentorship/training tools and installed into the team's processes (tooling, CI/CD, test automation, BDD)
- Find a group of humble and smart people ready to make you grow and to grow with you
- Change the Internet landscape in Africa and the world
