Job Description

The role involves comprehensive project management responsibilities, including defining project scope, objectives, timelines, and deliverables, as well as creating and maintaining detailed project plans, schedules, and documentation. It requires monitoring project progress, managing risks, issues, and dependencies, and coordinating across cross-functional teams such as engineering, QA, design, and business. The individual will lead project meetings, provide status updates, report KPIs to stakeholders, and manage budgets, resource allocation, and vendor coordination when necessary. As a Scrum Master, the responsibilities include facilitating Scrum ceremonies like Daily Standups, Sprint Planning, Sprint Reviews, and Retrospectives, guiding the team in Agile best practices, helping them self-organize, shielding them from external interruptions, and removing blockers. The role also involves working closely with the Product Owner to maintain a healthy backlog, fostering continuous improvement through metrics and retrospectives, and ensuring alignment with Agile principles and organizational standards. Effective stakeholder and communication management is essential, including clear status reporting, managing expectations, negotiating priorities, and building strong relationships across business, technical, and leadership groups. Quality and delivery assurance are critical, ensuring deliverables meet business requirements, quality standards, and acceptance criteria, supporting process improvements, and facilitating cross-team coordination for smooth delivery and integration.


The qualifications required include a Bachelor's or Master's degree in business, technology, or a related field, along with 12+ years of experience in project management, Scrum Master, or similar roles. A solid understanding of Agile methodologies (Scrum, Kanban) and project management frameworks, strong organizational, communication, and leadership skills, and experience with tools like Jira, Confluence, Azure DevOps, Trello, or Asana are essential.
