Hybrid role

Compensation: $85-$90/hour

Contractor / Consultant (Project-based, with potential extension)
ABOUT THE ROLE

Our client is seeking an experienced Product & Agile Transformation Coach to guide teams, leaders, and partners through the transition from project-based to product-centric delivery models and from waterfall to agile methodologies. This hybrid role, based in Nashville, TN, involves hands-on coaching of product managers, delivery managers, and cross-functional technical teams to embed modern delivery practices, foster continuous improvement, and align with organizational goals and constraints. You will work alongside IT leadership, product managers, delivery teams, and governance partners to embed product-centric thinking, modern delivery practices, and continuous improvement. Key responsibilities include facilitating workshops, supporting the evolution of governance and funding models, and providing actionable feedback to leadership. Experience with public sector or large enterprise transformations and relevant agile certifications are preferred. This is a contractor/consultant position with potential for extension, reporting to IT/Product Transformation Leadership.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
  • Coach teams and leaders through the transition from project-centric to product-oriented delivery
  • Support the shift from waterfall delivery models to agile and hybrid agile practices
  • Provide hands-on coaching to Product Managers, Product Owners, Delivery Managers, Scrum Masters, and cross-functional technical teams
  • Help teams establish and refine product vision, pipelines, roadmaps, outcome-based planning, metrics, and backlog management and prioritization practices
  • Assess current delivery practices and recommend pragmatic improvement approaches
  • Facilitate workshops and working sessions (e.g., agile fundamentals, product mindset, team charters)
  • Partner with leadership to align governance and funding models, intake and prioritization processes, and delivery metrics and reporting
  • Support teams in adapting agile practices to enterprise or public-sector constraints
  • Model servant leadership, continuous improvement, and psychological safety
  • Provide feedback, observations, and recommendations to leadership throughout the engagement
  • Deliverables may include: agile and product maturity assessments, team and leadership coaching plans, product and delivery working agreements, training materials and workshop outputs, and recommendations for sustained product and agile practices
WHAT YOU BRING
  • Demonstrated experience as an Agile Coach, Product Coach, or Delivery Transformation Coach
  • Proven success coaching teams through project-to-product and waterfall-to-agile transitions
  • Experience working with cross-functional technical teams (engineering, business analysts, QA, operations, security, data)
  • Strong understanding of agile and lean principles, product management practices, and incremental/iterative delivery models
  • Ability to coach at multiple levels (team, product, leadership)
  • Excellent facilitation, coaching, and communication skills
  • Comfortable working in complex, matrixed, or highly regulated environments
  • Experience in public sector, government, or large enterprise transformations (preferred)
  • Familiarity with frameworks such as Scrum, Kanban, XP, SAFe, LeSS, or other scaling approaches (used pragmatically, not dogmatically)
  • Experience evolving governance and funding models to support product delivery (preferred)
  • Change management or organizational design experience (preferred)
  • Relevant certifications (e.g., Certified Agile Coach, SAFe SPC, ICP-ACC/ATF, PMP transitioning to agile) (preferred)
WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU
  • Opportunity to drive meaningful transformation in a complex, high-impact environment
  • Flexible hybrid or remote work arrangements
  • Potential for contract extension based on performance and organizational needs
  • Engagement with forward-thinking IT/Product Transformation Leadership
  • Chance to shape and embed modern delivery practices at scale
