ABOUT THE ROLE

Our client is embarking on a multi-year data transformation program, running through mid-2029, with the objective of migrating an on-premises data warehouse to AWS. As a Lead Scrum Master, you will support Agile Working Groups (AWGs) across customer, finance, HR, and Enterprise Asset Management business areas. You will play a pivotal role in facilitating Agile processes, ensuring team productivity, and adapting Agile practices to meet the unique needs of each team. This position requires a pragmatic Agilist who can balance best practices with flexibility, especially as teams transition from waterfall to Agile methodologies. Experience with data projects, particularly Jira data, is highly valued. You will work closely with other Scrum Masters, Product Owners, team members, and management to drive solutions, remove impediments, and promote a culture of continuous improvement.

WHAT YOU'LL DO
  • Facilitate Agile ceremonies (e.g., sprint planning, daily stand-ups, retrospectives, demos) and ensure adherence to Agile practices across multiple and/or larger-scale teams
  • Remove barriers and impediments to enable team productivity and delivery, shielding teams from external distractions
  • Capture, monitor, and report on team and project health metrics (e.g., Burn-Down Chart, velocity) to inform sprint planning and management
  • Mentor team members, promote Agile thinking, and exemplify a servant leadership style
  • Maintain and prioritize the product backlog and physical Scrum (task) board in partnership with Product Owners and teams
  • Facilitate estimation activities such as story points and Planning Poker
  • Track and resolve impediments, risks, and dependencies, ensuring timely resolution
  • Update improvement backlogs with commitments from retrospectives and drive continuous improvement initiatives
  • Prepare and share Commitment and End of Sprint Reports based on demos and Product Owner acceptance
  • Collaborate with other Scrum Masters, Product Owners, and management to drive solutions and ensure the integrity of the Agile framework
  • Support teams and organizations transitioning from waterfall to Agile methodologies, providing guidance and flexibility as needed
  • Ensure quality and completeness of Agile artifacts and documentation
  • Develop metrics to assist in sprint planning and management, leveraging data experience (Jira data preferred)
WHAT YOU BRING
  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent (7+ years of relevant experience in lieu of degree)
  • 5+ years of experience with project concepts and practices
  • 3+ years of Scrum Master experience, preferably supporting multiple or large-scale teams
  • Scrum Master certification (CSM) required
  • Strong experience with Agile methodologies and frameworks, with the ability to adapt practices to team needs
  • Demonstrated ability to plan, organize, and develop metrics for sprint planning and management
  • Experience with data projects; familiarity with Jira data is a plus
  • Servant leadership style with a proven ability to mentor, promote Agile thinking, and ensure process adherence
  • Ability to facilitate estimation activities and maintain backlog and Scrum boards
  • Excellent written, verbal, and electronic communication skills; able to interact effectively at all organizational levels and deliver persuasive, informative presentations
  • Experience moving teams and organizations from waterfall to Agile methodologies (preferred)
  • Ability to work independently, lead efforts across multiple teams, and drive solutions to completion
