  • Partner with product teams to adopt Agile and product-focused practices, enhancing delivery and business value.
  • Act as a trusted advisor to teams and mid-level leadership, reinforcing Agile principles and practices.

Training and Facilitation:

Design and deliver interactive workshops, training sessions, and hands-on labs to upskill teams and leaders on Agile principles, tools, and practices.

Educate teams on technical best practices, including DevOps, XP engineering practices (TDD, CI/CD, pairing), and Lean principles.

Continuous Improvement:

Promote a culture of learning and adaptation by embedding effective retrospectives and metrics-driven decision-making.

Analyze team performance data to identify areas for improvement and recommend & implement actionable strategies.

Stakeholder Engagement:

Work closely with cross-functional teams to identify challenges in Agile adoption and provide tailored coaching support.
