What You’ll Do
Cadenced Release Delivery
Own the release calendar; lock sprint goals and ensure each increment meets Definition of Done and validation requirements. Coordinate cut-over tasks with DevOps and QA.
Scrum Facilitation
Plan and run all ceremonies—Sprint Planning, Daily Stand-ups, Backlog Refinement, Reviews, and Retrospectives—ensuring time-boxing and clear outcomes.
Team Coaching & Continuous Improvement
Coach the team in Agile principles, foster self-organization, and turn retro feedback into actionable experiments that raise velocity and quality.

Partner with the Product Manager to keep the backlog groomed, prioritized, and understood. Confirm that user stories are INVEST-ready before sprint commitment.
Risk & Impediment Management
Surface blockers early, own their resolution, and communicate impact on scope or timeline to stakeholders.
Jira & Reporting Excellence
Configure and maintain Jira workflows, boards, dashboards, and automated reports (velocity, burndown, cycle time). Provide crisp weekly status summaries.
Documentation & Validation
Ensure sprint artifacts—user stories, acceptance criteria, test evidence, release notes—are complete, version-controlled, and audit-ready under HIPAA/GDPR/21 CFR Part 11 guidelines.
Qualifications
- 3–5 years as a Scrum Master or Agile Project Manager for a product engineering team
- Demonstrated success delivering time-boxed releases in a regulated SDLC (HIPAA, ISO 27001, FDA, or similar)

What Success Looks Like in 12 Months

- Audit-Ready Artifacts – Validation evidence packages are compiled within 48 hours after each release.
- Process Uptick – Retro action items achieve ≥ 70 % completion by the next sprint, resulting in measurable gains in cycle time or quality.
