A division of Harris; Cayenta is seeking an experienced Scrum Master to serve as a servant leader and coach for our Agile development teams. In this role, you will guide teams in adopting and refining Scrum practices, facilitate collaboration, remove impediments, and foster a culture of continuous improvement. You will work closely with Product Owners, developers, and stakeholders to ensure alignment, transparency, and sustainable delivery.

We’re looking for someone who is passionate about Agile principles and thrives on helping others succeed. The ideal candidate brings strong facilitation expertise, emotional intelligence, and a relentless drive to eliminate obstacles — empowering self-organizing teams to deliver high-quality products iteratively and predictably.

You will report to the Senior Director of R&D, with a preference for candidates based in Canada.

• Guide the team toward self-organization, helping them take ownership of their processes and outcomes.
• Maintain and administer the Scrum board (Jira or equivalent), ensuring cards, statuses, and sprint data are accurate and current.

• Provide regular status updates to stakeholders, including sprint accomplishments, current risks and issues, and team health indicators.
• Facilitate Sprint release planning with the Product Owner and stakeholders to determine feature sequencing and expected timelines.

• Demonstrated experience facilitating Scrum ceremonies and coaching teams through Agile adoption and maturity.
• Strong facilitation, conflict resolution, and negotiation skills.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills with the ability to influence and collaborate at all levels of the organization.
