We are embarking on a strategic shift toward AI-native development, moving beyond isolated tool adoption to institutional, repeatable ways of working that improve delivery speed, quality, and predictability across large, distributed teams.

Role Mandate

The Agile Coach role will act as a transformation leader, responsible for owning AI-enabled SDLC practices, coaching leaders and teams, and institutionalizing productivity metrics that drive sustained improvement across the organization.

Key Responsibilities

• Define and scale AI-native SDLC patterns across planning, development, testing, release, and operations.
• Coach teams, delivery leaders, and managers on outcome-driven Agile and Lean practices.
• Establish, govern, and evolve SDLC productivity metrics such as flow efficiency, lead time, quality, rework, and predictability.
• Translate delivery data into executive-level insights and actionable recommendations.
• Drive AI adoption through structured change management, enablement, playbooks, and communities of practice.
• Partner closely with senior leaders to identify systemic bottlenecks and remove organizational impediments.

• 5+ years in an Agile Coach, Transformation Coach, or Engineering Excellence role operating across multiple teams or portfolios.
• Strong understanding of modern AI-native SDLC practices.
