Lead Agilist

Cincinnati, Ohio (Onsite)

Lead Agilists embody agility using a servant leadership approach and leading by example while guiding their Squad(s) on the application of the Scrum Framework. They build trusting environments where problems can be discussed and solved collaboratively. They facilitate Scrum events and activities as necessary and ensure the team is realizing value from them (including Sprint Planning, Daily Scrum, Sprint Review, Retrospective and Backlog Refinement). Lead Agilists coach the Product Owner and Development Team in effective Product Backlog management so that they have a common understanding of what is to be delivered, why it needs to be delivered, and what success looks like. They coach the Agile Squad(s) in self-organization, continuous improvement, cross-functionality, risk identification, dependency management, conflict resolution, and software craftsmanship. They will encourage Squad(s) to solve their own problems with Agile mindsets, performance, and team dynamics. They also coach others in the organization regarding Agile practices and impacts that actions have on the team and its self-organization. Lead Agilists are able to provide objective guidance, without personal or political consideration.

A Lead Agilist possesses a learning mindset and help the Agile Squad(s) continuously improve their interactions, practices, and process through valuable inspect and adapt practices using data from feedback loops, metrics and other information radiators. They are able to identify opportunities for improvement outside of the traditional inspect and adapt practice by leveraging a basic understanding of technologies and techniques in the DevOps, pipeline automation, testing frameworks, etc. spaces. They are able to leverage concepts from other Agile frameworks and working practices outside of Scrum to help Squads grow and succeed. They model collaborative, courageous and open behavior, and a willingness to learn and grow continuously for the Agile Squad(s) as well as the organization.   

Lead Agilists and the Agile Squad(s) are responsible and accountable for the identification of risk by openly exchanging ideas and opinions, elevating concerns. They personally follow policies and procedures as defined and are accountable for always doing the right thing for customers and colleagues.  Lead Agilists and the Agile Squad(s) ensure that their actions and behaviors drive a positive customer experience.
