Ensure team alignment to program increments and release plans in accordance with hybrid/agile governance.

Planning & Coordination

Collaborate with Product Owners, Business Analysts, and SAP consultants to maintain a clear and prioritized backlog.
Facilitate story refinement and sizing sessions (e.g., user stories, technical tasks, SAP-specific enhancements).
Coordinate dependencies, blockers, and risks across other SAP streams and legacy systems.

Agile Scaling Support

Participate in Agile ceremonies at scale (e.g., PI Planning, Scrum of Scrums, System Demos) if using SAFe or similar framework.
Interface with Release Train Engineers (RTEs), Solution Architects, and other Scrum Masters to synchronize team deliveries.
Contribute to Agile metrics and reporting dashboards (velocity, burndown, team health).

Requirements:

Required Qualifications:

10+ years experience as a Scrum Master in enterprise-scale Agile delivery.
Experience working with functional and technical teams.
Experience with SAP S/4HANA implementation or major ERP platforms (SAP ECC, Oracle, Workday, etc.).
Strong understanding of Agile (Scrum, Kanban) and hybrid delivery models in a structured environment.
Familiarity with SAP Activate methodology and traditional SAP project phases.
Experience in scaled Agile frameworks (e.g., SAFe) and managing cross-team dependencies.
Excellent facilitation, coaching, and conflict resolution skills.
Proficient in tools like Jira, Confluence, MS Project, SAP Solution Manager, or equivalent.

Preferred Skills:

Previous experience working in an SAP Support organization.
Knowledge of preventive maintenance practices.
Experience with RAID (Risks, Assumptions, Issues, Dependencies) management.
