Erik M.

Agile / Scrum Coach

Does this sound familiar? You've got a small product development team for your growing business but sometimes it feels like everyone is going off in different directions. Especially these days with everyone remote. The team isn't big enough to justify hiring a manager, so you may be tempted to "promote" one of your senior developers to a "management" role. (Don't do that. Seriously.) Consider instead fractional leadership - I will work with your team on a part-time basis to ensure they are on the right track. I am a highly experienced software systems engineer, project manager, quality manager and Agile consultant. I help teams of different shapes and sizes become highly motivated and hyper-productive. This blends seamlessly into short-term projects. You may not need the overhead of a formal project management process or PMO, but you do need someone who can actively manage risks and keep things running to a budget or schedule. In case you prefer bullet points, I offer the following services: - Scrum Master support for one or more teams - Lightweight project management services - QA strategy implementation - Scrum / Agile coaching Every engagement will start with a needs assessment, clearly outlined expectations and a commitment to regular communication.
