• Track, analyze, and report on key DevOps and Kanban metrics (Cycle Time, Lead Time, throughput) to guide forecasting and process enhancements.
  

• Act as the primary point of defense against blockers, removing organizational and technical impediments to keep the DevOps team unblocked.
  

• Collaborate with product development, operations, and leadership to align the infrastructure and automation roadmap with business objectives.
  

• Work with release management to plan, schedule, and control software and infrastructure releases for smooth, automated, low-risk deployments.
  

• Communicate project status, risks, and dependencies clearly and consistently to stakeholders and engineering teams.
  

• Maintain a solid understanding of DevOps principles, including automation, Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC), monitoring, and system architecture.
  

• Champion the automation of manual tasks to reduce operational toil and improve delivery pipeline efficiency.
  

• Partner with the team to integrate quality checks and security practices (DevSecOps) early in the pipeline.
  

Requirements

• 3+ years of experience as a Project Manager, Technical Project Manager, Scrum Master managing technical teams, or other related roles.
  

• Practical expertise in applying Kanban principles, including visualizing flow, managing WIP, and measuring flow efficiency.

• Familiar with DevOps tools and practices: CI/CD (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GCP), Git, cloud platforms (GCP/Azure), containers (Docker/K8s), and IaC (Terraform, Ansible).
  

• Excellent communication, organization, and cross-functional leadership.
  

• Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field (CS, Engineering, or equivalent experience) preferred but not required
  

• PMP or Agile certifications (KMP, CSP) are a plus
