  • Define and maintain delivery plans in partnership with product leadership, ensuring alignment across squads and external stakeholders
  • Monitor progress using agile metrics (e.g., velocity, OKRs, tech debt), identify risks and blockers, and escalate or resolve them quickly
  • Coordinate dependencies across squads and with other projects in the larger XR program
  • Communicate and coordinate with internal and external partners, ensuring alignment of priorities, dependencies, and deliverables. Support long-term organizational improvement in delivery practices and scalability
  • Coach teams and leaders in agile adoption, adapting frameworks to suit context and maturity
