We are seeking an Engagement Specialist to join our team. The Engagement Specialist will work closely with Shakudo’s Engagement Managers and technical teams to ensure smooth delivery of client projects. You will help coordinate communications, organize meetings, capture key decisions, support project planning, and assist in prioritizing work for our weekly sprints. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, client-facing environment and is passionate about enabling teams to deliver high-quality work efficiently.
