We are seeking a motivated and experienced Scrum Master / Project Manager to lead cross-functional teams in delivering high-quality software and driving projects to successful completion. This hybrid role combines Agile facilitation and project management expertise, ensuring alignment between business goals, team execution, and delivery timelines.

Our development team works primarily with the following technology stack: C#, .NET, SQL, and Angular. Familiarity with these technologies is a plus, as it will help in understanding the context and flow of development work.

Key Responsibilities:

· Remove impediments and support team collaboration to ensure high performance and continuous improvement.

· Coordinate with Product Owners, Engineers, QA, Designers, and stakeholders to ensure clear requirements and deliverables.

· Maintain Jira (or other Agile tools), ensuring transparency of backlog, sprint health, and project progress.

· Track and report on key project metrics including velocity, burn-down, and delivery milestones.

· Proactively identify risks and dependencies and develop mitigation plans.

· Facilitate cross-team coordination when needed and contribute to Agile maturity within the organization.

Qualifications:

· 3–6 years of experience as a Scrum Master and/or Project Manager in a software development environment.

· Strong understanding of Agile methodologies (Scrum, Kanban) and project management principles.

· Proven track record of managing multiple projects and coordinating distributed teams.

· Excellent communication, facilitation, and problem-solving skills.

· Proficiency with project and collaboration tools such as Jira, Confluence, or similar.

· Familiarity with development processes involving C#, .NET, SQL, and Angular is a strong advantage.

· Certification such as Certified Scrum Master (CSM), PMI-ACP, or PMP is a plus.
