Lead, mentor, and motivate a team of developers, testers, and other contributors.
Run sprint planning, stand-ups, retrospectives, and one-on-ones; remove blockers.
Act as the primary client contact: run meetings, demos, and status reviews, and manage scope, timelines, and risks.
Track timelines, budgets, and resources using Agile/Scrum; maintain project documentation and ensure smooth releases.
