Rocio Marisol Rodriguez

After seven years as software developer and technical leader I got my first certification as scrum master 12 years ago. Since then, I have been applied the agile values and principles to help various global cross-functional teams to achieve their challenging goals, and I been amazed for the power that a high-performance, collaborative and self-managed team can have. As an Agilist, I help teams fostering a safe environment where they can freely interact with each other based on respect, effective communication, healthy accountability, and trust, a place where they can be themselves. I serve the team as mentor and coach through active listening. Removing impediments and resolving conflicts are among my key duties to keep the team focused and on track. But, I not only serve the team, is my responsibility as well to serve the organization, to understand their vision and objectives clearly, and helping assemble a well prioritized backlog to transform it into reality. As well, I must create visible metrics to track our progress towards predictability based on a sustainable velocity, and keep stakeholders well informed, so we can make data-based decisions to ease strategic planning and release value iteratively to our customers. I am interested in contributing to an organization with a meaningful purpose. My expertise lies in serving as a Sr Scrum Master, a Release Train Engineer for agile release trains, or Agile Coach to empower the entire organization. As a bilingual professional (fluent in English and Spanish) and a green card holder, I bring a diverse perspective and a commitment to driving positive change. *Achievements and Interests • 2023 – Coaching and leading a successful agile transformation base on SAFe Framework at PepsiCo for an implementation of SAP and Salesforce integrated with mobile app. Team of 230 professionals (one program, two trains,
