• Support sprint planning, capacity planning, and iteration setup for client delivery teams
• Troubleshoot configuration and pipeline issues; provide hands-on guidance to client engineers and delivery leads

• Proficiency with YAML pipelines, branch strategies, and release management
• Familiarity with Azure cloud services and infrastructure-as-code using ARM and/or Bicep
• Scripting experience with PowerShell and/or Python for automation and platform enablement
• Strong communication skills and comfort working directly with client stakeholders and engineering teams

Preferred Qualifications

• Exposure to SAFe or other scaled Agile frameworks
• Microsoft certifications in Azure and/or DevOps (strong plus)

What Success Looks Like

• Teams have reliable, secure, and maintainable CI/CD pipelines with consistent standards and documentation
• Portfolio and roadmap visibility improves through effective configuration of Portfolio++ and Azure DevOps Boards
