Job Description

Kforce has a client in Tukwila, WA that is seeking a Senior Scrum Master. Summary: We are seeking an experienced Scrum Master to support Agile delivery teams within a financial services environment. This person will facilitate Agile/Scrum practices, remove impediments, manage dependencies, and help teams deliver against product and project priorities. Ideally, we are looking for someone who isn't just a ceremony facilitator, but can flex between Scrum Master + Agile delivery. Key Responsibilities:
  • Facilitate daily stand-ups, sprint planning, retrospectives, backlog refinement, and PI Planning
  • Coach teams on Agile, Scrum, and SAFe practices
  • Identify and remove roadblocks while managing cross-team dependencies and risks
  • Partner closely with Product Owners, Product Managers, technology teams, and business stakeholders
  • Support product backlog, priorities, user stories, and delivery commitments
  • Perform light Project Management duties, including status reporting, milestone tracking, risks/issues, and stakeholder communication
  • Drive continuous improvement and help teams mature their Agile delivery practices

Requirements:

  • CSM, PSM, SAFe Scrum Master, or similar certification is a plus
  • 5+ years supporting Agile technology teams
  • Strong Scrum and/or SAFe experience
  • Financial services or credit union experience preferred

The pay range is the lowest to highest compensation we reasonably in good faith believe we would pay at posting for this role. We may ultimately pay more or less than this range. Employee pay is based on factors like relevant education, qualifications, certifications, experience, skills, seniority, location, performance, union contract and business needs. This range may be modified in the future.

We offer comprehensive benefits including medical/dental/vision insurance, HSA, FSA, 401(k), and life, disability & ADD insurance to eligible employees. Salaried personnel receive paid time off. Hourly employees are not eligible for paid time off unless required by law. Hourly employees on a Service Contract Act project are eligible for paid sick leave.

Note: Pay is not considered compensation until it is earned, vested and determinable. The amount and availability of any compensation remains in Kforce's sole discretion unless and until paid and may be modified in its discretion consistent with the law.

This job is not eligible for bonuses, incentives or commissions.
