Job description

At BairesDev® we've been leading the way in technology projects for over 15 years. We deliver cutting-edge solutions to giants like Google and the most innovative startups in Silicon Valley.

Our diverse 4,000+ team, composed of the world's Top 1% of tech talent, works remotely on roles that drive significant impact worldwide.

When you apply for this position, you're taking the first step in a process that goes beyond the ordinary. We aim to align your passions and skills with our vacancies, setting you on a path to exceptional career development and success.

Senior Scrum Master / Project Manager at BairesDev

In this role, you'll own both agile delivery and project governance for your assigned projects, without splitting responsibility with a separate resource. This is a hands-on position for someone who can run agile ceremonies one day and step into project management on a waterfall or hybrid initiative the next. This is your opportunity to be the single point of accountability that technical and business stakeholders can rely on.

What You'll Do

• Run agile ceremonies, backlog refinement, and workflow structuring using Jira and Confluence.
• Flex into project management responsibilities on waterfall or hybrid initiatives, particularly operational, infrastructure, and capex-based projects.
• Conduct thorough discovery with teams before proposing recommendations, mapping workflows and validating findings directly with them.
• Produce well-structured documentation, including RAID logs, RACI matrices, closure documents, retrospectives, and backlogs.
• Prepare reports and presentations tailored to the audience, from operational teams to leadership and executives.
• Align terminology and recommendations to the client's specific context and ways of working.
• Manage scope with discipline, working within what has been agreed with the client's PMO.
• Build and maintain trust with multiple technical and business stakeholders, including QA, development, business analysts, and senior management.

What We Are Looking For

• Solid experience as a Scrum Master or Agile Coach, with a track record of implementing agile practices in organizations undergoing process transformation.
• Demonstrated ability to flex into project management on waterfall or hybrid delivery models, ideally in operational, infrastructure, or capex-based initiatives.
• Proven experience owning both agile delivery and project governance responsibilities simultaneously on the same project.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English, with the ability to adapt communication style to different audiences.
• Background working in a staff augmentation or embedded consultant model.
• Proficiency in Jira and Confluence, including workflow configuration and analysis grounded in direct engagement with teams.
• Strong analytical skills and attention to detail.
• Experience managing multiple, complex stakeholders, including navigating formal approval hierarchies.

Nice To Have

• Prior experience with public sector or government clients.
• Familiarity with ITSM tools such as ServiceNow, and support or BAU processes.
• Relevant certifications, such as PMP, PMI-ACP, Certified Scrum Master, or SAFe.

How we do make your work (and your life) easier:

• 100% remote work (from anywhere).
• Excellent compensation in USD or your local currency if preferred
• Hardware and software setup for you to work from home.
• Flexible hours: create your own schedule.
• Paid parental leaves, vacations, and national holidays.
• Innovative and multicultural work environment: collaborate and learn from the global Top 1% of talent.
• Supportive environment with mentorship, promotions, skill development, and diverse growth opportunities.
