"Absolutely. In my last job, we leveraged the waterfall method, making sure we completed each phase of the project - and completed it on time and to the highest quality, before moving on.

Every step is crucial to ensure we're producing a quality product and also maintaining that product to meet the changing needs and demands of our end users."
