Patriot is looking build relationships with  experienced Agile Program/Project Manager with a background in Drupal, an individual who focuses on providing guidance of teams, rather than a record-keeper of tasks and activities.

Program Managers contribute and support release planning, facilitating Scrum of Scrums, Program Sync Ups, Roadmap Updates, and shepherding the Communities of Practice. In addition, they should have experience with all facets of software development, operational support and project management using agile processes. Must have experience in providing advanced project management and support for ongoing programs and for projects across numerous functional and technical units with the organization. For each program/project, the Agile Program Manager is responsible for ensuring that the program is on track for successful releases, and coordinate with vendors/partners, and external stakeholders as necessary. An Agile Program Manager can focus on managing integration and dependencies with other areas and does not need to spend time on routine change management of scope, cost and timeline. They are servant leaders who own and run the program with a backlog and release plan.
