Agility information

What is an agility job?

Agility jobs typically refer to roles that require adaptability, quick thinking, and the ability to respond to changing environments or priorities. In a business context, agility jobs might include positions in project management, software development (such as Agile Scrum Masters), or operations, where being flexible and responsive is crucial. These roles focus on continuous improvement, collaboration, and delivering results efficiently in dynamic settings. Agility is valued in organizations that prioritize innovation and rapid adaptation to market demands.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an agile coach?

To thrive as an Agile Coach, you need a strong understanding of Agile methodologies (like Scrum or Kanban), experience leading teams, and often Agile certifications such as Certified ScrumMaster (CSM) or Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP). Familiarity with project management tools like Jira, Confluence, or Trello is typically required. Excellent communication, facilitation, and conflict-resolution skills help foster team collaboration and drive organizational change. These competencies are essential for successfully guiding teams through Agile transformations and ensuring continuous improvement.

What does an agility coach do?

An Agility Coach works closely with teams to help them embrace and implement agile methodologies, especially during times of organizational change. They facilitate training sessions, guide teams through iterative processes, and encourage open communication to identify and overcome obstacles. By fostering a culture of continuous improvement, Agility Coaches ensure teams remain flexible and resilient, enabling them to deliver value even in rapidly evolving environments. Collaboration with product owners, scrum masters, and stakeholders is essential for aligning goals and ensuring successful agile adoption.

  • Experience writing modern C++ (17, 20)
  • Experience using FreeRTOS or similar
  • Experience with best practices for writing performant and maintainable software
  • Proficiency with a Linux-based development environment
  • Ability to read schematics, PCB layouts, and component datasheets
  • Ability to verbally communicate technical information effectively

Preferred to have:

  • Experience with implementation of automation fieldbuses such as EtherCAT, CAN, etc. EtherCAT is highly desirable
  • Experience writing embedded C++ for ARM systems
  • Experience developing real-time or low-latency systems
  • Experience designing and implementing hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing frameworks for embedded systems
  • Experience with unit testing such as with GTest and coverage analysis
  • Proficiency in Python (3.6+)
