Develop, refine, and maintain work items and user stories within IBM Engineering Workflow Management (EWM), including story status, acceptance criteria, and related artifacts throughout each Program Increment and Sprint.
Participate in daily stand-up meetings, PI planning events, and bi-weekly retrospectives to support team alignment, transparency, and continuous improvement.
Update, refine, and maintain team processes and procedures in Confluence to ensure documentation remains accurate, current, and aligned with evolving program needs.
