• Collaborate with the Scrum Master and technical team to define user stories and ensure timely delivery with expected quality standards.

• Validate features and user needs using feedback loops, testing, and analytics.

• Lead and support the team day-to-day, providing coaching, support, and regular development dialogues.

• Foster a high-performing, psychologically safe, and collaborative team culture.

• Provide feedback and guidance on performance and development needs in coordination with the line manager.

• Support resource planning, recruitment, and onboarding.
