• Apply Agile methodologies such as Scrum, Kanban, or hybrid models and facilitate sprint planning, stand-ups, backlog refinement, reviews, and retrospectives.
• Track sprint commitments, project progress, team capacity, dependencies, risks, blockers, quality, and overall delivery performance.
• Drive team accountability, remove delivery blockers, manage conflicts, and escalate critical issues when required.
• Manage scope changes through appropriate impact analysis, prioritisation, approval, and change-control processes.
• Coordinate QA, UAT, defect resolution, release readiness, production deployment, and post-implementation activities.
• Maintain project documentation and provide clear status, milestone, risk, dependency, and delivery updates to management and stakeholders.
• Drive continuous product and delivery improvement based on metrics, stakeholder feedback, user feedback, and lessons learned.
