Kanban Master information

What is a Kanban Master?

A Kanban Master is a professional responsible for implementing and managing the Kanban methodology within a team or organization. They facilitate workflow visualization, ensure work-in-progress limits are maintained, and help teams continuously improve their processes. Kanban Masters coach team members on Kanban principles and practices, track performance metrics, and remove obstacles that hinder productivity. Their goal is to optimize workflow efficiency and deliver value to customers in a timely manner.

How does a Kanban Master support team collaboration and workflow improvements?

A Kanban Master plays a pivotal role in fostering team collaboration by facilitating regular meetings, such as daily stand-ups and retrospectives, to ensure transparency and open communication. They help teams visualize work, identify bottlenecks, and implement changes to optimize flow using the Kanban methodology. By continuously monitoring metrics like cycle time and work-in-progress limits, the Kanban Master guides the team in making data-driven decisions for ongoing improvement. Their collaborative approach encourages shared ownership and accountability while supporting a culture of continuous learning and adaptation.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Kanban Master, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Kanban Master, you need a solid understanding of Kanban methodology, workflow optimization, and experience in process improvement—often supported by certifications like Kanban Management Professional (KMP). Familiarity with tools such as Jira, Trello, or Kanbanize is typically required to visualize and manage work in progress. Strong facilitation, communication, and coaching skills help foster team collaboration and continuous improvement. These abilities are crucial for optimizing productivity, reducing bottlenecks, and ensuring efficient project delivery.

We are seeking an experienced Scrum Master / Kanban Coach to drive agile delivery, release management, engineering quality, and continuous improvement across software engineering teams.

Roles and Responsibilities

* Facilitate Agile ceremonies including sprint planning, daily stand-ups, reviews, retrospectives, PI Planning, System Demos, Inspect & Adapt, and Scrum of Scrums.
* Manage team backlogs in Azure DevOps, ensuring clear acceptance criteria, dependencies, priorities, and technical context.
* Track and communicate delivery and engineering metrics such as velocity, burndown, cycle time, deployment frequency, lead time, change failure rate, and MTTR.
* Own the release calendar and release management lifecycle, including code freezes, regression windows, go/no-go checkpoints, rollback plans, and environment promotion from INT to CERT to PROD.
* Enforce release gates covering regression testing, test coverage, code quality, security scans, and complete deployment traceability.
* Work with SonarQube, Veracode, GitHub, and CI/CD pipelines to ensure engineering and security quality standards are met.
* Manage enterprise change processes using ServiceNow, CAB, CR/CHG/CRQ, and PRR workflows.
* Own production incident RCA processes, ensuring systemic issues are identified and corrective/preventive actions are tracked to completion.
* Proactively identify and escalate delivery and technical risks including environment issues, upstream dependencies, API changes, and pipeline failures.
* Drive automated testing adoption, including unit testing, integration testing, API contract validation, and code coverage improvements.
* Track technology modernization initiatives and technical debt, ensuring visibility, prioritization, and progress through the backlog.
* Coach teams on Agile/Kanban principles, self-organization, continuous improvement, sustainable delivery, and effective flow management.
* Maintain comprehensive release audit trails including release notes, deployment records, test evidence, and incident postmortems.
* Monitor post-deployment application health using Azure Monitor, Application Insights, and Splunk.
* Shield delivery teams from unnecessary disruptions, scope creep, and external blockers while maintaining transparency with stakeholders.

Required Qualifications

* 5+ years of experience as a Scrum Master, Agile Delivery Lead, Kanban Coach, or Technical Project Manager within software engineering environments.
* Strong experience owning end-to-end release management and delivery processes.
* Hands-on experience with Azure DevOps including Boards, Dashboards, Queries, and backlog management.
* Experience with GitHub, CI/CD pipelines, API contracts, SQL, and cloud technologies.
* Strong understanding of environment promotion, code freezes, regression testing, release gates, and rollback procedures.
* Experience with ServiceNow, CAB, CR/CHG/CRQ, and enterprise change management.
* Experience with SAFe or other scaled Agile frameworks, including PI Planning.
* Strong understanding of Agile, Scrum, and Kanban practices and team coaching.
* Experience driving engineering quality practices, automated testing, code coverage, and release governance.
* Proven experience managing RCA and corrective/preventive action processes for production incidents.
* Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to translate technical risks and delivery status into clear business-level updates.
