Description As a Scrum Master supporting Technology Infrastructure Priorities, you will enable one Agile team within a Scaled Agile (ART) environment to deliver technology outcomes across Database, Middleware, and Messaging platforms. You will be accountable for facilitating the Scrum operating rhythm, strengthening delivery predictability, managing dependencies and impediments, and ensuring alignment with Enterprise Change Management and other policy requirements. This role is PI Planning-critical: you will drive PI readiness (backlog quality, dependency clarity, objective readiness) and ensure post-PI execution stays aligned to PI objectives, risks, and commitments. Skills Agile, Scrum, Agile methodology, Jira Top Skills Details Agile,Scrum,Agile methodology,Jira Additional Skills & Qualifications Daily responsibilities and/or priorities include: Facilitate and continuously improve Scrum ceremonies: Sprint Planning, Daily Scrum, Backlog Refinement, Sprint Review/Demo, and Retrospectives (clear agendas, timeboxing, measurable outcomes). Lead PI Planning preparation for the team: ensure objectives, dependencies, risks, and capacity assumptions are ready; support program board inputs and follow-through on commitments. Create stakeholder transparency: communicate plans, progress, risks, and dependencies using Jira/Jira Align signals and concise,executive-ready written/visual updates. Proactively manage delivery risk: dependency mapping, impediment removal, escalation as needed, and ensuring compliance with Enterprise Change Management and related governance. Partner with Product Owner/Product Manager to maintain a healthy backlog: clear priorities, right-sized epics, ready stories, acceptance criteria quality, and effective story splitting/estimation. Leverage Copilot Chat (AI) and existing prompt libraries to help formulate deliverables and decompose them into epics and user stories (e.g., Jeff Patton-style story mapping), while applying human validation for accuracy, compliance, and clarity. Use Jira Software Plans (Advanced Roadmaps) roadmap views to validate and communicate the team's plan, including capacity, dependencies, sequencing, and target dates. Own the operating rhythm for Plans hygiene: triage, explain, and resolve Jira Software Plans (Advanced Roadmaps) warnings (e.g., missing estimates, invalid hierarchy/links, date conflicts, scope exclusions, over-capacity signals) so roadmap views remain trustworthy for PI readiness and stakeholder decisions.
