    AI Engineer (Applied/Software), IT Project Manager, Machine Learning/ ML Engineer, Cloud Computing: Infrastructure & Operations
Job Description & How to Apply Below
As the Agile Delivery Lead, you will be the operational anchor of a fast-paced AI prototyping POD. You will partner closely with Product Owners, Data Engineers, and AI/ML Developers to manage and prioritize AI-focused backlogs while aggressively removing impediments and mitigating delivery risks. This role requires more than standard Scrum master capabilities; you must possess the technical fluency to engage meaningfully with AI engineers on concepts like LLMs, RAG, and LLMOps, turning experimental prototypes into scalable production-ready solutions.

Advantages
Cutting-Edge Technical Domain:
Immerse yourself in next-generation AI workflows, including multi-agent systems, vector databases, and generative AI lifecycles.

High Autonomy & Impact:
Operate with minimal oversight as an independent driver of outcomes, with the authority to shape team processes and mentor pod members.

Executive Visibility:
Own the tracking and reporting of high-level Agile metrics, providing concise, outcome-focused updates directly to executive stakeholders.

True Cross-Functional Leadership:
Act as the central connective tissue between product, platform, data engineering, and advanced machine learning development teams.

Responsibilities
1. Agile Ceremonies & Delivery Management
Facilitate all core Agile ceremonies, including sprint planning, daily stand-ups, sprint reviews, and retrospectives, driving strict adoption of best practices.

Partner with the Product Owner to build, refine, and prioritize highly technical, AI-focused backlogs.

Proactively identify and remove system impediments, manage cross-team dependencies, and mitigate delivery risks to maintain sprint momentum.

Align weekly sprint outcomes with broader, long-term product and portfolio goals.

2. Technical Fluency & AI Lifecycle Collaboration
Maintain and apply a working understanding of AI/GenAI delivery lifecycles, interfacing confidently with engineers regarding LLMs, multi-agent systems, RAG, embeddings, and vector databases.

Collaborate meaningfully with AI engineers and architects to navigate MLOps/LLMOps deployment hurdles and productionization constraints.

Help the team translate speculative data experimentation into structured, time-bound sprint goals.

3. Metrics, Coaching & Continuous Improvement
Track and report critical Agile metrics (such as team velocity, burn-down, and sprint progress) to ensure radical transparency.

Provide concise, value-focused health and status updates to executive leadership.

Coach and mentor team members on predictability, self-organization, and continuous improvement frameworks.

Foster a culture of regular reflection to optimize internal development processes.

Qualifications
Core Requirements

Experience:

8–10 years of professional Agile-Scrum experience (Industry senior-level benchmark).

Domain Expertise:
Proven track record leading delivery for high-velocity software engineering, data engineering, or AI/ML development teams.

Leadership Depth:
Demonstrated ability to operate with minimal oversight, drive outcomes independently, and supervise/mentor team members.

Technical Familiarity
Strong conceptual understanding of modern AI architectures (Large Language Models, Retrieval-Augmented Generation, embeddings).

Familiarity with data pipeline infrastructure and cloud-based AI productionization (MLOps).

Deep proficiency with enterprise Agile management tools (e.g., Jira, Confluence) and dashboard reporting infrastructure.

Summary
Our Client is seeking a senior-level Agile Delivery Lead to head agile delivery for a high-velocity AI prototyping team. This role combines elite Agile leadership with deep technical fluency to cultivate high-performing teams working on AI- and data-intensive solutions. If you excel at driving momentum in cutting-edge spaces and translating complex AI workflows into structured, predictable delivery cycles, this role offers an incredible opportunity to make an impact.
