About The Position

Fortune Brands Innovations (FBIN) is a market-leading home products company behind iconic brands, including Moen, Master Lock, Yale, Therma-Tru, etc. Our Connected Products Engineering (CPE) organization builds the next generation of smart home products — and we're looking for an Agile Delivery Manager to help us ship it reliably. This is not a ceremony facilitator role. You will own delivery outcomes across 2–3 cross-functional software teams (PODs), eliminate the blockers slowing them down, and apply AI-powered tools to raise what great agile delivery looks like.

Requirements

Demonstrated outcomes as an Agile Delivery Lead in software engineering — measured by team metrics, not tenure.
Expert-level proficiency in Scrum and Kanban; daily hands-on use of Jira and Confluence.
Strong facilitation, conflict resolution, and stakeholder influence skills — with a bias toward action and accountability.
Technical fluency across mobile (iOS/Android), backend services, APIs, SDKs, and firmware — able to engage engineers credibly.
Active AI tool user (Claude Enterprise, GitHub Copilot, or equivalent) with the ability to demonstrate productivity gains.
Experience coordinating distributed, global development teams across time zones and cultures.

Nice To Haves

Responsibilities

Sprint commitment reliability (90%+) across assigned PODs — through facilitation that drives outcomes, not checkbox compliance.
Impediment removal with urgency: team-level blockers resolved within one business day; cross-POD blockers within two. Visible impediment log maintained at all times.
Systemic problem diagnosis — identify root causes behind recurring blockers and escalate with solution recommendations, not just flags.
Cross-functional dependency coordination 2+ sprints ahead, partnering with Product, QA, and Engineering to prevent integration failures before they happen.
iOS and Android release coordination across scrum teams, including management of global development dependencies across North America, Europe, and Asia.
AI-powered delivery improvements — use Claude Enterprise, GitHub Copilot, and similar tools to accelerate retrospectives, planning, documentation, and process optimization.
Delivery health reporting to leadership — velocity, cycle time, sprint commitment reliability, and Definition of Done compliance with clear trend analysis.
Team agile maturity — coach teams toward higher autonomy, sustainable pace, and measurable improvement in quality and engagement over time.
