Scrum Master / Agile Coach

• Coach and support development teams in adopting Kanban (visualisation of work, WIP limits, flow metrics, policies, and continuous improvement).
• Facilitate agile ceremonies (daily stand-ups, replenishment meetings, reviews, retrospectives) and adapt them to fit Kanban and team context.
• Collaborate with Product and Engineering leads to design and refine workflows, classes of service, and explicit policies.
• Introduce and track flow metrics (cycle time, lead time, throughput, WIP, aging work in progress) to drive data-informed decisions.
• Identify bottlenecks, blockers, and systemic issues; lead experiments to improve flow and delivery predictability.
• Coach teams on agile principles (empiricism, transparency, collaboration, incremental delivery) beyond any single framework.
• Support the transition from "ticket pushing" to outcome-focused delivery, helping teams connect their work to business goals.
• Mentor team members and leaders on agile roles, responsibilities, and ownership (self-organisation, cross-functionality, shared accountability).
• Facilitate healthy team dynamics, conflict resolution, and psychological safety so teams feel safe to inspect, adapt, and learn.
• Partner with other Agile Coaches / Engineering Managers to align practices across teams and share learnings., * Understand current ways of working, tools, and delivery constraints for each of the four teams.
• Map existing workflows and visualise them on simple Kanban boards, without forcing big-bang changes.
• Build relationships with team members, Product Managers, and Engineering Managers; clarify goals and expectations.
• Run initial workshops on Kanban basics, flow, and WIP for each team.

Days 31-60:

• Introduce or refine explicit policies, WIP limits, and basic flow metrics (cycle time, throughput).
• Facilitate regular retrospectives focused on bottlenecks, context switching, and blockers; agree on concrete improvement experiments.
• Align ceremonies across teams where useful (e.g., shared review or communities of practice).
• Help teams start using metrics dashboards to guide planning and prioritisation.

Days 61-90:

• Help teams stabilise their Kanban systems, refine classes of service, and improve predictability.
• Lead deeper continuous improvement cycles (service level expectations, demand vs. capacity, aging WIP management).
• Support teams in owning their process, reducing reliance on you for day-to-day facilitation.
• Document practices, playbooks, and lessons learned to scale the approach across more teams.
