- What strategies do you employ to ensure smooth and successful deployment of releases? How do you minimize disruptions and risks during the release process?
- Can you discuss a situation where you facilitated the resolution of a particularly challenging technical issue within the team or for the customer? What steps did you take?
- Position is approved and start date is ASAP.
- One interview process. Panel interview with 4-5 team members.
- Team size is 10. Includes QA, developers and Product Owner. Some QA resources are located offshore.
- Long term contract opportunity.
- This position is a new add due to increased workload.
- Certified Scrum Master certification and/or SAFe certification are required. Both would be preferred.
- Local candidates who can work onsite in a hybrid capacity will be given first preference. This position works closely with the business, so developing those relationships will be important. Second preference would be the 6 state footprint.
- Recent SAFe experience is required.
- They do NOT want an Agile coach. They need a true Scrum Master.
- They need a Scrum Master who has worked closely on product/technology releases. This resource will be on a team that deploys technology to stores. Experience working on projects deploying new technologies is required.
- Experience working closely with a Product Owner in past roles.
- Experience interfacing with the business side in previous roles, and not just managing teams and Agile ceremonies. This role is more of a consultant position than a traditional Scrum Master.
- Experience in release management is required. The manager noted that this is an unusual ask for a Scrum Master, as most resources will not have release management experience. We need to carefully screen for this skill. They need to understand release management processes and ensure the team is following the procedures that are in place for successful releases in order to get stable solutions deployed to the stores. They do not want any disruptions in the stores when these systems are deployed, so demonstrable release management experience is an absolute requirement.
