Strong facilitation and stakeholder management skills.
Ability to work proactively and independently.
Strong communication and conflict-resolution skills.
Upper-Intermediate or higher English.
Experience working with distributed international teams.
Experience coordinating dependencies across multiple teams.
Experience in scaled Agile environments.

Job responsibilities
Facilitate Scrum ceremonies, including Sprint Planning, Daily Scrum, Sprint Review, Retrospectives, and Backlog Refinement.
Support the team in planning and delivering Sprint and release commitments.
Track delivery progress, risks, blockers, and dependencies.
Proactively identify and remove or escalate impediments.
Work closely with the Product Owner to maintain a healthy and well-refined backlog.
Ensure effective communication and collaboration between Product, Engineering, QA, and other stakeholders.

Monitor Agile metrics and use them to improve team transparency and delivery predictability.
Facilitate continuous improvement and help the team identify and implement practical process improvements.
Support effective management of cross-team dependencies.
Facilitate resolution of team conflicts and help maintain a collaborative team environment.
Provide clear and timely updates on delivery status, risks, and dependencies.
