Some of the most successful companies in Europe rely on our technology due to our commitment to innovation, collaboration, and value in business development. The world is how we shape it. Let’s shape it together. 

Our team members understand the importance of collaboration and put it at the forefront of their work philosophy. That’s why we encourage our people to embrace Agile & Scrum in their workdays. Agile brings flexibility, collaboration, and incremental delivery to project management. Scrum introduces short term, functional incremental progress on performance directed by the Scrum Master and Product Owner. Through regular Sprints, it is easier to manage backlogs, conduct sprint planning, and create constant, collaborative positive outcomes. 

As an Agile Coach, you will play a vital role in guiding teams through agile methodologies to enhance productivity and foster positive change. Your expertise in agile frameworks such as Scrum, Kanban, and SAFe will help streamline processes and improve team performance. You’ll bring your exceptional interpersonal, motivational, and leadership skills to the forefront, facilitating collaboration and driving agile adoption within organizations. While a relevant bachelor’s degree or Agile certification is preferred, it is not essential. Your primary focus will be on leading and coaching teams, applying your facilitation skills to effectively implement agile practices and achieve successful outcomes. 

We’re seeking passionate colleagues who are eager to push the boundaries in digital transformation and technology consulting.
