My Role
I’m responsible for keeping my agile team productive and contributing with value increments to our products, which means ensuring that they have a well-defined and prioritized backlog to pick work items from. Although there is currently a physical distance, I feel connected and in constant contact with everyone virtually. I connect and work with my team and every other contributor to the product we work on – other POs, architects, user interface designers, devOps, product management, and organizational management. I have the chance to collaborate with various teams across the organization to deliver top work.
A day in my life
My morning starts with the team’s daily meeting, the first 15 minutes are reserved for small talk, just to wake up and set a good mood for the day. These informal spaces are extremely important when we are all working remotely; they help people feel more closely connected. We sync up on the current work and are ready to start the day aligned with each other.
Though I have several meetings scheduled every day with people around the world, I have autonomy to manage my remaining activities and have them conciliated with my personal needs, which is something I truly treasure. I feel fortunate to work in a respectful work environment, which is professional yet has an informal vibe, alongside talented people that makes my Hitachi journey more enjoyable.
