Scrum Masters (SM) are responsible for the day-to-day oversight of activities performed by a team while adhering to agile practices and disciplines. The SM would work very closely with agile teams, business & leadership to resolve team level impediments and manage risk. They are responsible for working closely with Product Owners to ensure that team members are working on the highest priority work items defined within the team's roadmap. The SM has a strong understanding of Agile Scrum and Kanban principles and practices. SMs also are responsible for providing hands-on coaching to support the adoption of agile practices and identifying opportunity areas for continuous improvement. Scrum Masters are strong communicators and are required to work closely with other delivery / application teams to support the implementation of working software. Scrum Masters prepare deliverables and artifacts that highlight the progress accomplished by teams (velocity, sprint and feature burn ups / burn downs, cumulative flow reports, etc.) and are responsible for presenting those artifacts as needed.
