We are building AskSOPia, an AI-powered knowledge management platform (Azure OpenAI, RAG, Blob Storage, Cognitive Search, Power Automate integrations, video-to-SOP pipelines, etc.).
We need an experienced Agile Project Manager / Scrum Master for a short-term engagement whose role is 50% execution support and 50% coaching for our internal project manager.
This is not a long-term PM replacement — it’s a high-impact enablement role to bring structure, speed, and clarity to our delivery process.
Your Responsibilities
✔️ Agile Coaching / Enablement
Coach our internal PM (Ren) in Agile best practices
Teach sprint planning, backlog refinement, prioritization methods
Train him on how to run standups, retros, and coordination with the dev team
Help establish a repeatable project structure & cadence
Gradually hand over responsibilities so Ren becomes fully self-sufficient
✔️ Delivery Execution
Review our current workstreams (AI chatbot, radiology implementation, logistics demo, learning journeys, voice agent, etc.)
Build a clean backlog in Azure DevOps (epics → features → stories)
Identify bottlenecks and unblock the dev team
Introduce a proper sprint cadence (weekly)
Ensure clarity of scope, timelines, and dependencies
Improve communication flows and reduce chaos & rework
✔️ Documentation & Handover
Deliver a lightweight “Agile Playbook” for our environment
Provide Ren with templates: user stories, acceptance criteria, tasks, communication formats
Final handover at the end of engagement
Requirements
5+ years as Agile PM or Scrum Master
Strong experience in SaaS, AI, or cloud-native projects
Familiar with:
Azure DevOps
RAG systems or LLM integrations (a plus)
Azure ecosystem (a plus)
Able to quickly bring structure to a fast-moving startup environment
Excellent communication skills
Strong coaching & mentoring abilities
Can work EU business hours (at least 3–4 hours overlap)
Duration
2–6 weeks, depending on momentum and outcomes.
Approx. 10–20 hours/week.
Goal of the Engagement
After this project:
Our internal PM runs sprints independently
Backlog is clean, structured, and prioritized
Dev team has clarity and moves faster
Leadership gets predictable reporting
System becomes self-running without you
This is a high-impact consulting role — not long-term body leasing.
