MY PROFILE

Edwin van Stam

Nationality

In the ever changing IT industry I have fulfilled many roles in the areas of software engineering, team and delivery leadership, supporting management, stakeholders, business, product management, mastering scrum- and kanban teams, release train engineering and agile coaching.

I am passionate about supporting people and companies in their agile journey and help teams make smart choices throughout the development lifecycle in order to optimize delivery and value, remain flexible to change and stay energized. It is important to create an environment with room for experimentation and recalibration based on progress- and result metrics. The massive change faced by transforming companies is often challenging but when done properly highly rewarding. In this playing field I am at my best.
In the past 10+ years I have been involved in agile transformations of a bank, an airline and an energy company while guiding management, multiple development teams, scrum masters, product owners and the release train as a whole, operating in the heart of the change.

Airfrance KLM
Scrum master, Agile coach, Delivery lead
5 years

AIRFRANCE KLM is running their ‘Scaling Agile’ program ADOPTing safE® as the agile framework. during this process i was in a leading and coaching role as a representative for product teams going through the agile transformation. Main task here was to enablE the product teams to become self-steering, independent and ready to embark on the first release train. one of my valuable contributions in the process was the setup of an MANAGEMENT/BUSINESS/ DEVELOPERS 'IMPEDIMENTS TABLE' where teams could table the organisational impediments they encountered in becoming truly agile.

in parallel, As a scrum master of multiple joint Air France KLM teams I have worked on the e-booking web system (finding flights) and the innovative Wi-Fi on board product.

multi-hatting as a delivery lead, I was responsible for delivering the software changes created by the teams to the production environment.

Crédit Agricole Consumer Finance
IT Team manager, scrum master
3.5 years

The first 7 months of my assignment at Crédit Agricole I led the software development team (15 fte) and reported to the ICT management. Main challenge was to professionalise the development and maintenance processes and balance the team competences to enable the launch of a new customer self-service product.
As the company was reorganising and new departments were introduced, I temporarily took over the role of the manager of the ‘Application management – front office’ department (9 months) extending my tasks with HR and restructuring the ICT department.

While doing this I started the redesign of the software development process from a Rational Unified Process (RUP) to a scrum driven process.

After handing over my managers role I guided the first scrum teams as a scrum master and acted as an agile coach for management.

Technical team lead, designer
8 months

Alliander is an energy network company dealing with energy transport and distribution in the Netherlands. During my assignment Alliander was replacing old analogue energy meters for smart digital meters.

As a technical team lead of a (Java) development team I have delivered various webservices to expose meter readings to energy suppliers like Nuon.

My main tasks were based on the Rational Unified Process (RUP) disciplines “requirements”; to bring existing use cases to a ready-to-implement state, “analysis and design”; assist in setting up the software architecture document and “management”; estimate work, set priorities for the team and manage time.

In addition I assisted in maturing the development and delivery process used in the construction phase of the project.
