  • Support Product Owners with backlog management, scope, stakeholder requests, and priority setting
  • Build and maintain reports for velocity, burndown, capacity, and project planning to provide ongoing insights
  • Drive story point estimation, roadmap adjustments, quarterly planning, and cross-functional collaboration
  • Resolve conflicts, remove impediments, and reduce context switching to accelerate team performance
  • Provide support within planning and reporting tools such as Jira
  • Foster a team culture grounded in commitment, focus, openness, respect, and courage
