Your Tasks:

We are looking for a motivated and driven Agile Coach who will help us to shape our Cloud Technology teams, catapult the company to the next level, and of course improve our shared experience. Our core function as the Agile Office is to define, advocate and instill an Agile mentality and framework into our development teams. We want to contribute to overall happiness for our people, through establishing continuous improvement in software craft, collaboration and communication. To achieve our mission, we seek to understand where the teams are in their development journey to offer tailored approaches to further their growth. We bring the right questions, provide dedicated support, challenge people constructively in their thinking and guide them towards building great products for our customers.

• Your purpose is to coach our teams to ensure the underlying Agile values and mindset are developed, through exploration of Agile practices and methods.
• You work with individuals, like our product owners and engineers, to build lateral leadership ideals, strong feedback loops, and common understanding on how to co-create in an Agile environment.
• You create a safe space for learning, development and fail-fast experiments. You are also not afraid to stand up for the team and have hard conversations to ensure this happens.
• You are not the loudest voice, instead practicing active listening and coaching from the back of the room to reach the shared goal.
• You take on team collaboration, decentralized decision-making and conflict resolution topics in your stride, knowing how to navigate them and reach the required outcomes.
• You provide tactical coaching, consulting and support for business owners and senior leadership within our organization.
• You believe our teams, supporting individuals reach high levels of personal mastery and teams achieve autonomy and self organization.
• You enable organizational agility by creating the conditions and alignment for change.
• You work with our teams to identify impediments and support their removal.
• You facilitate team level discussions and can run wider workshops or sessions if called upon.

We Appreciate:

• 1-2 years hands-on experience as an Agile Coach, Scrum Master or Agile Evangelist in an Agile environment.
• You are proactive, knowing how to best use your time and that of our teams to reach our shared goals and vision.
• Able to cater communication style to the audience, in a clear and concise manner.
• You are resilient: experimenting and championing innovative approaches and new paths even when met with resistance.
• You are flexible, understanding no two teams are the same and require different approaches to help them thrive.
• A strong team player who can lead when needed, full of empathy, positivity and is naturally curious.
• Experience in supporting or working within high-performing, self organizing teams.
• Fluent in English; German or another language is a plus.
