Tools, Reporting & Metrics
Own and maintain delivery tracking within Jira (boards, workflows, reporting)

Track and report on key delivery metrics (velocity, throughput, cycle time, predictability, AI experiment success rates where applicable)
Provide concise updates for leadership and steering forums
Experience & Skills
Proven experience as a Scrum Master in complex, cross-functional engineering environments (platform, data, or AI-focused teams preferred)
Strong understanding of agile methodologies (Scrum, Kanban, scaled delivery models)
Experience supporting delivery of AI/ML or data-driven products (e.g. LLMs, automation, analytics platforms)
