(Remote) Scrum Master

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 not manage scope, schedule, or budget in the conventional sense.

Instead, you will coach teams to own their processes and outcomes, champion continuous improvement, and serve as a bridge between delivery teams and the product team.

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

Salary : Up to 100K CAD

• Strong collaboration with the Product Owner from product vision through retrospective.
• Assist the Product Owner’s vision to materialize by leading the scrum team every sprint.
• Collaborate with the Product Owner during Sprint planning.
• Facilitate all Scrum ceremonies — Daily Standup, Sprint Planning, Sprint Review, Sprint Retrospective, and Backlog Refinement — ensuring they are purposeful, time-boxed, and drive toward clear outcomes.
• Coach team members and stakeholders on Agile principles, Scrum values, and the continuous improvement mindset.
• Proactively identify and remove impediments that block the team’s progress, escalating to leadership when necessary.
• Shield the team from external distractions and interruptions during sprints.
• 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.
• Track and communicate key Agile metrics — velocity, sprint burndown, cycle time, and sprint goal completion rates — using data to drive retrospective discussions and improvement initiatives.
• 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.
• Promote Agile adoption and best practices beyond the immediate team, contributing to organizational Agile maturity.
