Manila, National Capital Region, Philippines Ascendion Full time

About the role

We are seeking an experienced Scrum Master to join our dynamic team at Ascendion. As a Scrum Master, you will play a pivotal role in driving agile project delivery and optimising the performance of our cross-functional software development teams. This is a full-time, hybrid role based in Bonifacio Global City, Taguig City, Metro Manila.

What you'll be doing

A Scrum Master is responsible for ensuring the team lives agile values and principles and follows the processes and practices that the team agreed they would use. The Scrum Master is a servant-leader who doesn't have direct authority over any of the other team members and isn't involved in high-level decision-making. Instead, the Scrum Master facilitates the Scrum process and keeps the team on track to the committed timelines agreed during the quarterly planning.

The role will be responsible for the following:

  1. Implementing Agile Ceremonies and Principles
  • Support in evaluating the Scrum maturity of the squad and prepare the squad for advanced stages of maturity, at a speed that is workable and easy for the team.
  • Lead the team on how to accomplish Agile/Scrum practices.
  • Lead and coach the team in its Scrum implementation.
  • Enable process activities of Agile development/Scrum by inspiring and backing the teams to self-align their repetitions.
  • Support internal and external communication, improving transparency, and radiating information.
  • Program and enable consistent team retrospective meetings per the Scrum framework.
  • Program, design, and assist team work as per the Scrum framework, daily stand-up meetings, consistent iteration reviews, and sprint planning meetings amongst the team, Product Owner, and stakeholders.
  • Assist sprint-planning gatherings, sprint review, and confirm that teams understand their ability (velocity) to meet sprint promises. Ensure the team's sense of responsibility to their obligations and to other team members.

2. Warrant that any blockers are identified and excluded, adhere to the agile process, and that an agile has a well-run escalation process in place for the changes that impact iteration.

  • Managing Agile Teams
  • Build a trusting and safe atmosphere where problems can be raised without distress of blame or being judged, with an importance of growing and problem solving.
  • Improve people through schooling and by adopting a positive work culture.
  • Offer all support to the squad using a servant leadership style every time possible, and leading by example.
  • Ensure that the team is providing software within the recognized quality standards by facilitating a working "definition of done" (DoD) for Agile stories within each team.
  • Eradicate obstacles or guide the team to remove obstacles by finding the right personnel to remove the obstruction.

What we're looking for

  • Minimum 3 years of experience as a Scrum Master or Agile coach in a software development environment.
  • Proven track record of successfully leading Scrum teams and driving continuous improvement.
  • Excellent facilitation, communication, and problem-solving skills.
  • Ability to work collaboratively with cross-functional teams and stakeholders.
  • Proficiency in Agile methodologies, including Scrum, Kanban, and Lean.
  • Strong understanding of software development life cycles and project management best practices.
  • Certification in Scrum or other Agile frameworks (e.g., CSM, PSM) is preferred.

What we offer

At Ascendion, we're committed to providing our employees with a rewarding and fulfilling work experience. Some of the key benefits we offer include:

  • Competitive salary and performance-based bonuses.
  • Comprehensive health and wellness benefits.
  • Generous paid time off and flexible work arrangements.
  • Opportunities for professional development and career growth.
  • Collaborative and supportive team environment.
