About the Role
Lead the daily delivery of small, high-impact automation initiatives, including AI Agents and other forms of automation. Work with experienced automation practitioners and engineers to create clarity, maintain focus, remove impediments, and deliver working solutions in small increments.
Responsibilities
- Lead day-to-day Agile delivery of AI and automation experiments, from initial idea through MVP, validation, and production, with an emphasis on rapid feedback and maximizing learning.
- Partner with LSM leaders, automation experts, and engineers to maintain a prioritized backlog.
- Ensure upcoming work is delivery-ready by facilitating requirements discovery, clarifying intended outcomes, and helping write well-defined user stories, acceptance criteria, and definitions of done.
- Facilitate backlog refinement, daily coordination, iteration planning, reviews, and retrospectives, adapting Agile practices to the team's needs.
- Break large or ambiguous opportunities into the smallest valuable increments, limit work in progress, and help the team finish the highest-priority work before starting more.
- Quickly identify and clear barriers, resolve ambiguity, and bring the right experts together to keep priority work moving.
- Use delivery data to identify bottlenecks, improve cycle time and throughput, support decisions, and communicate the value and learning the team produces.
Requirements
- Demonstrated experience leading the daily Agile delivery of high-output engineering, automation, or technology teams.
- Deep practical understanding of small-batch delivery, cardinal prioritization, MVP development, iterative delivery, feedback loops, and limiting work in progress.
- Ability to turn ambiguous ideas and business needs into clear, actionable backlog items, with experience in requirements clarification, story decomposition, backlog refinement, and meaningful acceptance criteria.
- Comfort working with senior engineers, architects, and automation specialists, and the ability to constructively challenge complexity, unclear priorities, and excessive work in progress without relying on formal authority.
- Skill in facilitating Agile practices that improve delivery, and the ability to explain clearly how to measure software-delivery effectiveness while staying open to learning and adapting.
- Use of data to improve flow, support decisions, and communicate delivered value, with comfort in an environment where requirements evolve and learning is part of delivery.
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience.
