• Inbound and outbound APIs
• External gateway integrations
• Notifications, subscriptions, and profile services
• Ensure sprint commitments account for external dependencies and environment readiness
• Coordinate execution across onshore/offshore teams and vendors

 

Metrics, Transparency & Governance

• Track and report Agile metrics (velocity, predictability, quality trends) using JIRA
• Ensure sprint commitments are measurable and delivery is transparent
• Partner with Product Owner and RTE on delivery visibility and governance

 

Stakeholder Communication & Team Enablement

• Act as a key delivery contact for Product Owners, leadership, and partner teams

• Hands‑on experience in a SAFe® Agile Release Train
• Proven ability to manage cross‑team and external dependencies
• Strong facilitation, communication, and conflict‑resolution skills
