- Champion Built-in Quality practices such as clientD, automated testing, and technical excellence
- Guide teams on Lean, SAFe, Scrum, Kanban, and flow-based delivery practices
- Partner with Product Owners to refine backlogs and ensure alignment with business value
- Foster transparency by ensuring team dashboards, metrics, and radiators are up-to-date
- Measure and optimize team flow, competency development, and outcome metrics (OKRs)
- Promote a culture of trust, psychological safety, collaboration, and continuous learning
- Support cross-team collaboration and whole-product solution development
- Represent the team in ART-level events and synchronize deliverables across dependencies
- Coach business and technical stakeholders on Agile mindset and value delivery
- Actively engage in Communities of Practice and enterprise-wide SAFe transformation efforts
