We are seeking an experienced Agile practitioner to support two cross-functional software product and engineering teams (approximately 6–8 people per team) operating in a hybrid Agile environment.

- Help teams identify and remove impediments that impact delivery.
- Surface and coordinate cross-team dependencies when they arise.
- Support teams in improving workflow clarity and predictability.
- Partner with Product Managers, Technical Product Owners, and Engineering to ensure work is well understood and ready for development.
- Help teams inspect and adapt how work flows through the system.
- Help maintain visibility into team progress, risks, and delivery forecasts for stakeholders.
- Encourage clear communication between product, engineering, and leadership.
- Coach team members and stakeholders on effective Agile practices in a hybrid Scrum/Kanban environment.
- Encourage lightweight, practical ways of working that support delivery and team health.
