Agile Transformation Coach

Contract to Hire | Remote

About The Company

Join a forward-thinking consulting firm partnering with enterprise clients to modernize how they deliver value. You'll work alongside a lean, experienced team of practitioners embedded directly with client leadership and delivery organizations — bringing real change, not just frameworks.

Job Description

We're looking for an Agile Transformation Coach who operates as both a strategic advisor and hands-on practitioner. In this role, you'll guide enterprise clients through meaningful agility improvements across teams, programs, and leadership layers — with success measured by outcomes like faster value flow and healthier teams, not framework adoption.

What You'll Be Responsible For

• Partner with senior and delivery leaders to design and evolve agile operating models across multiple pipelines and Agile Release Trains
• Facilitate planning and alignment events (e.g., PI Planning) that drive real clarity and commitment
• Coach teams on flow, backlog management, dependency reduction, and continuous improvement
• Identify systemic impediments and work with leadership to address structural, policy, and governance constraints
• Design and deliver role-based training for leaders, product managers, Scrum Masters, and engineers
• Mentor internal coaches and change agents to build lasting capability within client organizations
• Co-create transformation roadmaps that are realistic, incremental, and outcome-focused
• Use data and qualitative insights to guide transformation decisions and demonstrate progress
  
  

Required Experience & Skills

• Proven experience coaching agile transformations at scale across multiple teams and programs
• Hands-on experience with Agile Release Trains or large-scale multi-team delivery pipelines
• Strong understanding of lean flow, systems thinking, and value-stream-oriented delivery
• Demonstrated ability to coach and influence senior leaders and executives
• Strong facilitation skills for complex group settings and leadership discussions
• Excellent communication skills — able to flex messaging for executives, managers, and practitioners
• Comfortable navigating ambiguity, resistance, and competing organizational priorities
  
  

Nice-to-Haves

• Experience with multiple scaling frameworks (SAFe, LeSS, Scrum@Scale, or custom models)
• Background in product management, software delivery, or complex operational environments
• Prior consulting or client-facing advisory experience
• Relevant certifications (SPC, RTE, or equivalent) — practical experience valued over credentials
  
  

Education

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent professional experience in a related field
  
  

Pay & Benefits Summary

• Pay Range: $65-85/hr. Contract to hire
