Stop Drowning in Jira Admin.
Accelerate Team Sprint Velocity.

A High-Discipline Remote Agile Engine Without Management Overhead
Guiding high-velocity engineering squads, facilitating SAFe PI planning, and removing organizational impediments takes deep focus. Spending hours formatting tickets and chasing updates kills your impact. We handle the operational execution.
Single Point of Contact
Communicate sprint goals, board conventions, and reporting requirements solely with your dedicated Project Manager on Slack or email. They brief your assistants, QA all Jira cards, and audit metrics with zero micromanagement.
Centralised Time Tracking
Gain transparent, screenshot-verified activity logs detailing exact work performed on backlog grooming, burndown audits, and dependency tracking. Pay strictly for productive working minutes.
Zero Recruitment Hassle
Skip posting job ads, reviewing 120+ unverified resumes, or training junior project coordinators who don't know the difference between Scrum and Kanban. We supply pre-vetted, Agile-fluent assistants in 24 to 48 hours.
0% Platform Surcharges
Freelance portals add 20% to 40% in hidden client fees, bidding markups, and currency conversion dues. SageDoer operates with 0% platform markups and zero monthly membership fees.
Seamless Sprint Backup Coverage
If your assigned Agile assistant takes leave or falls ill right before sprint rollover or PI planning, your dedicated PM immediately activates an internally trained backup equipped with your team's documented working agreements.
Consolidated Reporting
Receive clean weekly summaries of tickets audited, ceremony artifacts prepared, cycle time trends, and unified USD invoices tailored for your engineering budget and finance department.
100% Industry-Standard Agile & Scrum Tech Stack

"As a Scrum Master managing four engineering squads, I was spending 15 hours a week updating Jira boards, re-pointing tickets, and pulling burndown metrics. Our SageDoer VA took over our backlog grooming checklists, Miro retro setups, and Confluence release notes. Our squads' velocity consistency improved by 28%."
Nathaniel Lewis, CSM
Lead Scrum Master, CloudSphere Technologies
"Our engineering leads used to complain that standup blocker notes were forgotten and sprint rollover tasks took days to settle. Samrat Pal and our assistant track blockers daily, update ADO board work items, and publish our weekly release digests on schedule. Flawless execution."

"Mapping cross-squad dependencies and running async standups across three timezones was a logistics nightmare. Having a dedicated project manager QA all Jira issue links and prepare Retrium boards has given our Scrum team a clean rhythm."
