https://www.praqma.com/stories/tech-agile-coach/As a Praqma Senior Consultant and Technical Agile Coach you will bring your expertise into software development teams and enable them to succeed. You will accelerate progress delivering value, while teaching new skills as necessary to tackle the technical challenges they face.
Your daily work at clients will involve coaching, teaching and facilitation. We prefer to use collaborative techniques like Mob Programming, Pair programming and Coding Dojo teaching sessions. The aim is to get the team working effectively with modern development practices, tools and approaches. We work with automating testing, controlling technical debt, improving design, breaking work into smaller increments, and encouraging cross-functional collaboration.
It's very important that in the end it's the client's staff who should own the work and succeed in the long term. Your role as a coach will change according to the situation. Sometimes you will be at the front writing the code and leading by example. Often you will be in the background, giving advice and encouragement. Ultimately you will leave the team to continue using new technology approaches without you, and you will move on to new challenges.
Not all of your time will be spent at the client. We prefer to deliver intense, on-site learning sprints in 2 week blocks. During this period the team assimilates new approaches while delivering on business needs. Between coaching blocks, the teams work towards becoming independently agile by applying what they've learnt.
While you are not on-site at the client, you will spend some of your time preparing teaching materials for the next coaching block. You are also expected to work on improving your own skills. We invest a lot of time in training, attending internal and external courses and conferences. Technical Agile Coaches may be involved in teaching these courses and facilitating internal conferences. In addition you are expected to spend time on pet projects, reading books, listening to podcasts, researching topics that interest you, and authoring blog posts and presentations.
Skills and experience
We are looking for people with extensive experience in software development, including Continuous Delivery and/or DevOps, who are ambitious and curious. You probably know several programming languages, and have a preferred editor you are very productive in. You know Git well, and are competent with Test-Driven Development and Refactoring. You like to keep yourself up-to-date with the latest technology and tools for software development.
You may be interested in doing some business development, pre-sales and account management, without leaving your technical expertise behind. You should be interested in doing more training and mentoring than a pure software development role would allow. Most importantly, you understand what it looks like when software is being built well, and want to help teams to improve their software delivery capability.
The successful candidate(s) could join any of our offices in eight locations across Scandinavia, all of which are expanding. We have interesting and challenging client assignments waiting for the right people, and a wealth of support and experience to draw on amongst your future colleagues.
