What You'll Do:

  • Agile Facilitation: Serve as Scrum Master for high-performing engineering teams, facilitating all core Agile ceremonies (Sprint Planning, Daily Standups, Backlog Refinement, Sprint Reviews, and Retrospectives).

  • Project Delivery & Management: Oversee end-to-end technical project execution, scope, timeline, risk management, and client deliverables across modern web, cloud, AI, and data applications.

  • Technical & Stakeholder Alignment: Collaborate closely with technical leads, software architects, and client stakeholders to translate high-level business goals into actionable technical requirements and user stories.

  • Blocker Removal & Optimization: Proactively identify and eliminate technical and procedural blockers, mitigate project risks, and optimize team velocity and workflow.

  • Metrics & Reporting: Track and report on key project health metrics (burndown, velocity, cycle time, scope churn) using platforms like Jira and Confluence.

  • Client Engagement: Maintain clear, proactive communication with enterprise clients, ensuring transparent updates on milestones, dependencies, and delivery progress.

Must-Haves:

  • Experience: 4+ years of experience as a Technical Project Manager or Scrum Master leading complex software engineering projects in an Agile environment.

  • Certifications: Formal Scrum Master certification (CSM, PSM I, or equivalent).

  • Technical Depth: A strong technical background or proven ability to comfortably engage in technical discussions (APIs, cloud architecture, CI/CD pipelines, modern frontend/backend frameworks).

  • Tooling & Frameworks: Deep proficiency with Agile methodologies (Scrum, Kanban) and project management suites like Jira, Confluence, Linear, or Azure DevOps.

  • Communication: Outstanding client-facing consulting skills, stakeholder management, and clear written/verbal communication.

  • Execution: Strong risk management, scope management, and analytical problem-solving abilities.

Nice-to-Haves:

  • Prior hands-on experience as a Software Engineer, QA Engineer, or Solutions Architect.

  • Experience working within a software consulting, agency, or IT professional services firm.

  • Project Management Professional (PMP) or PMI-ACP certification.

  • Experience with scaled Agile frameworks (SAFe, LeSS) or managing multi-team deliverables.
