Agile Delivery Lead

Company Overview

Savas Software is a healthcare technology company delivering innovative Electronic Health Record (EHR) and revenue cycle solutions that support multidisciplinary, patient-centered care. Our platform supports complex clinical, operational, and payer workflows, and we are actively scaling our software organization to support commercial growth and modernization initiatives.

We are seeking an Agile Delivery Lead to strengthen software delivery execution, support our migration to Azure DevOps, and help teams plan and deliver work with clarity and predictability.

Position Overview

The Agile Delivery Lead is responsible for enabling effective software delivery by improving how work is planned, tracked, and executed across teams. This role partners closely with Product Owners, Engineering Leads, and leadership to ensure delivery workflows are well-defined, tooling is optimized, and teams are set up for success.

This role does not own product strategy or people management. Instead, it focuses on delivery enablement, tooling alignment, and execution health, drawing heavily on Agile principles and prior product experience.

Key Responsibilities

Delivery & Iteration Management

• Enable structured, iterative delivery cycles that align teams around clear goals and commitments
• Support planning and execution rhythms that improve delivery predictability and flow
• Help teams break work into well-defined, achievable deliverables

Backlog & Product Readiness

• Partner closely with Product Owners and Product Managers to ensure work is clearly defined, prioritized, and delivery-ready
• Apply prior Product Manager / Product Owner experience to help refine requirements, acceptance criteria, and sequencing
• Support ongoing backlog refinement to reduce ambiguity and scope churn

Jira & Azure DevOps Tooling Support

• Maintain and optimize Jira boards, workflows, and issue structures during the current delivery model
• Play a key role in the migration from Jira to Azure DevOps, including:
• Supporting process and workflow mapping
• Assisting with backlog, sprint, and reporting configuration
• Helping teams adapt to new tooling and usage standards
• Promote consistent, high-quality work tracking across platforms

Facilitation & Team Enablement

• Facilitate delivery-focused team touchpoints (planning, progress alignment, reviews, and improvement discussions)
• Encourage healthy communication and collaboration across product and engineering
• Coach teams on delivery best practices without adding unnecessary process overhead

Delivery Metrics & Visibility

• Track and analyze delivery metrics such as throughput, cycle time, predictability, and blockers
• Provide clear, actionable delivery insights to engineering and leadership
• Ensure delivery data is accurate, trustworthy, and useful for decision-making

Impediment & Dependency Management

• Proactively identify and help resolve obstacles impacting delivery
• Coordinate across engineering, product, infrastructure, and external stakeholders to remove blockers
• Help manage dependencies across teams and initiatives

Cross-Team & Initiative Support

• Support delivery coordination across multiple teams or initiatives when needed
• Help align delivery execution with broader product and organizational goals
• Provide execution support for complex or high-priority initiatives

Qualifications

• 3+ years of experience in an Agile delivery, iteration management, or execution-focused role within a software development organization
• Strong hands-on experience with Jira and familiarity with Azure DevOps or similar delivery tooling
• Solid understanding of Agile and iterative delivery principles
• Proven ability to facilitate discussions, surface issues, and drive alignment without formal authority
• Excellent communication skills with both technical and non-technical stakeholders

Highly Desired Experience

• Previous experience as a Product Manager or Product Owner
• Experience translating business needs into clear, actionable delivery work
• Experience supporting or leading tooling migrations (Jira Azure DevOps or similar)
• Background in healthcare, SaaS, or regulated environments
• Agile, product, or delivery certifications (CSM, PSM, SAFe, CSPO, or similar)

What Success Looks Like

• Teams plan and deliver work more predictably
• Product requirements are clearer and better prepared for delivery
• Azure DevOps is adopted smoothly and used consistently
• Delivery metrics provide real insight, not just reporting noise
• Teams feel supported, focused, and empowered to execute

Why Join Savas Software

• Opportunity to help shape delivery practices during a critical growth phase
• High-impact role with visibility across product, engineering, and leadership
• Meaningful ownership in tooling, execution, and process evolution
• Collaborative culture focused on outcomes over ceremony
• Competitive compensation and growth opportunities
