About The Position

The Scrum Master is a hands-on Agile delivery leader responsible for helping development, operations, and support teams plan, coordinate, and deliver high-quality outcomes. The role goes beyond facilitating Scrum ceremonies and requires a strong understanding of the work teams are delivering, the dependencies and stakeholders that affect delivery, and the risks or impediments that may impact commitments. This position is particularly focused on supporting an Information Technology organization that is continuing to establish and mature its Agile/Scrum practices. The Scrum Master will help strengthen release planning, roadmap visibility, backlog and work-flow discipline, cross-team coordination, and continuous improvement. Success in this role requires the ability to meet teams where they are, introduce practical Agile practices without over-engineering the process, and build sustainable delivery habits over time.

Requirements

Strong practical understanding of Scrum, Kanban/flow-based work management, and hybrid Agile delivery models.
Demonstrated ability to support multiple Agile teams while maintaining awareness of what each team is developing, delivering, or supporting.
Demonstrated experience coordinating cross-team dependencies, release activities, risks, and stakeholder involvement in dynamic environments.
Experience helping teams or organizations establish, mature, or improve Agile delivery practices; experience in environments without fully mature release-planning or road mapping processes is strongly preferred.
Ability to translate Agile principles into practical processes that fit the organization's current level of maturity and business needs.
Strong working knowledge of Jira, including backlog and board management, sprint/release tracking, dashboards, reporting, and workflow concepts.
Experience supporting technology delivery involving Salesforce is strongly preferred; familiarity with Salesforce implementation, development, release, or platform-support environments is highly valued.
Experience supporting cross-functional teams that include development, operations, technical support, and business stakeholders.
Background in service-based, help-desk, technical-support, or operational work environments.
Proven experience working across both project-based and operational workflows.
Demonstrated ability to remove impediments, improve delivery flow, and reduce unnecessary work-in-progress, delays, and bottlenecks.
Strong facilitation, communication, conflict-resolution, organization, and stakeholder-management skills.
Ability to influence without direct authority and bring the right participants together to resolve delivery issues.
Strong analytical judgment and the ability to use delivery data, team context, and business priorities to identify risks and improvement opportunities.
Working knowledge of collaboration and delivery tools such as Confluence and Azure DevOps is beneficial.
Must be willing and able to travel periodically for team meetings, training events, company functions, and other business-related activities as needed.
Certification in CSM, PSM, or a comparable Agile certification is strongly preferred.
Six Sigma, PMP, or similar process-improvement or project-management certification is preferred.

Lead and improve technical support work-management practices, including intake, prioritization, work-in-progress visibility, ticket flow, aging, resolution progress, and service-level awareness.
