Facilitate Agile delivery activities such as backlog refinement, sprint planning, capacity planning, sprint reviews, retrospectives, and recurring team coordination.
Ensure all work is tracked in the Government-designated project management or Agile tracking tool.

Identify risks, blockers, staffing gaps, resource constraints, quality concerns, and schedule impacts early, and recommend practical corrective actions.
Review deliverables for quality, accuracy, completeness, professionalism, and alignment with customer requirements before submission.
Support staffing, onboarding, knowledge transfer, team performance, and resource planning.
