With over 15 years of proven results, we’ve expanded across industries including financial services, pharmaceuticals, aerospace, consumer products, and quick service restaurants.

CompassX is partnering with a global manufacturing client on a plant-by-plant operational transformation - and we're looking for an Agile Product Coach to help scale it. You'll work directly with our CompassX program manager, learning the playbook firsthand before taking it out to additional sites. A key part of this is implementing new solutions, tools, technology, and ways of working. This role will be essential in bringing stakeholders and users along in this transformation.
Air travel within the US and across the Americas is essential to this success, so you should only apply if you are based within the US and comfortable with regular visits to plant locations to roll out this work. Ideally, you will be based near a major well-connected airport hub.
What You'll Do
What You'll Bring
- Background in agile ways of working, backed up by relevant certifications and experience. Shaped by time in product or software development rather than a career built solely around agile-transformation consulting
- Experience of the shift from traditional to agile delivery firsthand — not someone who's only ever coached agile from the outside
- Hands-on facilitation experience: running ceremonies, coaching teams through resistance, translating agile principles into a non-software environment
- Comfortable taking direction and executing rather than driving your own strategic agenda — this is a "lieutenant," not a chief. You're here to implement a working playbook, not redesign it
- Manufacturing exposure is a plus, not a requirement
- Easygoing, likable, low-ego - someone teams want to work with, not someone who clashes with existing leadership
- Willingness to travel extensively and frequently, including potential international travel
- US passport required
Our consultants say CompassX is a place where they can truly find their own path. As part of a smaller firm, they see the impact of their work, have an identity, and know their voice matters. They value the freedom to take the reins of their careers, shape their client work, and maintain a direct line to leadership.
With CompassX’s focus on serving local Southern California clients, consultants not only build lasting relationships but also see the results of their work in the communities where they live.
At CompassX, you won’t just follow a path - you’ll create one.
