Scrum Lead

We are seeking a collaborative, metrics-driven Scrum Lead to support two high-performing, on-site development sub-teams (8-10 total team members) responsible for our core wealth products. Rather than acting solely as a meeting facilitator, you will serve as an active, embedded member of the team helping navigate technical challenges, coaching on Agile best practices, and driving continuous delivery through data.

Key Responsibilities

Agile Facilitation & Coaching: Lead 2-week Scrum sprints, gap-week planning sessions, and standard Agile ceremonies following guidelines.

Flow Metrics & Analytics: Track and optimize core performance metrics, including cycle time, throughput, work-in-progress (WIP), and work aging.

Jira & Delivery Management: Maintain strict Jira hygiene across the hierarchy (Stories Epics Capabilities Initiatives) to ensure high data integrity and visibility.

Process Improvement: Actively work toward organizational OKRs, including targeted cycle-time reductions for feature work and maintaining ideal WIP-to-throughput ratios.

Technical & Team Collaboration: Partner closely with back-end, front-end, and product teams to remove technical blockers and refine application design workflows.

AI Tooling Integration: Leverage AI tools and automation for workflow optimization, data analysis, and reporting.

Qualifications

Experience: Proven track record as a Scrum Master or Scrum Lead in mature Agile environments.

Technical Background: Strong preference for candidates with prior hands-on experience in software engineering, data, analytics, or architecture.

Framework Mastery: Deep understanding of Scrum frameworks, flow metrics (cycle time, throughput, WIP), and continuous integration/delivery processes.

Tool Proficiency: Advanced expertise with Jira setup, metric extraction, and reporting.

AI Familiarity: Practical experience utilizing AI tools to streamline administrative tasks, analysis, and team operations.

Soft Skills: Exceptional communication, proactive problem-solving, and a team-first coaching mindset.
