- Reduce friction between cross-functional stakeholders (Engineering, Product, Business) through structured, transparent collaboration.

- Facilitate clear, effective communication within the delivery team to enhance progress visibility and transparency.

- Coordinate with Scrum Masters on dependent teams and contribute to Scrum of Scrums and program-wide leadership calls and status updates.

- Maintain an impediment log with resolution tracking and escalation paths.

- Maintain stakeholder alignment artifacts (roadmap updates, dependency maps, blockers dashboards) in partnership with TDM/Tech Lead and Product.
