Job description

WHY JOIN US

If you're looking for a place to grow, make an impact, and work with people who care, we'd love to meet you!

ABOUT THE ROLE

We are looking for a Senior Scrum Master to facilitate Agile processes for distributed infrastructure, DevSecOps, and SRE teams across LatAm, EU, and India time zones.

MUST HAVES

• You must be authorized to work for ANY employer in the US (e.g., Green card holders, TN visa holders, GC EAD, H4 EAD, U4U with EAD), as we are unable to sponsor or take over employment visa sponsorship at this time;
• 5+ years as a dedicated Scrum Master for highly technical infrastructure or platform engineering teams.
• Experience in vulnerability management lifecycles or cloud architecture.
• Advanced Agile Certifications (e.g., CSM, PSM II, SAFe).
• Proven experience adapting Agile methodologies for distributed, multi-timezone teams.
• Upper-intermediate English level.

NICE TO HAVES

• Familiarity with Jira Advanced Roadmaps, Confluence, and engineering metrics (DORA metrics).

WHAT YOU WILL DO

• Asynchronous & Synchronous Facilitation: Efficiently facilitate Agile ceremonies (planning, stand-ups, retrospectives) adapting to a follow-the-sun model to minimize meeting fatigue while maximizing cross-regional alignment.
• Blocker Resolution: Actively identify, mitigate, and elevate delivery blockers, working closely with the TPM and SDMs to ensure engineers are never stalled at shift boundaries.
• Process Optimization: Continuously evolve Agile processes tailored specifically for DevSecOps, SRE, and Data Science workflows, which often require different pacing than traditional software feature delivery.
• Team Health: Maintain a highly collaborative and friendly work atmosphere across diverse cultural hubs, ensuring psychological safety and continuous improvement.

PERKS AND BENEFITS

• Professional growth: Mentorship, TechTalks, and personalized growth roadmaps.
• Competitive compensation: USD-based pay with education, fitness, and team activity budgets.
• Exciting projects: Modern solutions with Fortune 500 and top product companies.
• Flextime: Flexible schedule with remote and office options.
