You will also share your insights contributing to the acceleration of Interwell’s agile maturity. Moreover, you will be tasked with leading the implementation of various frameworks aimed at improving value, flow, quality, predictability, modern engineering practices, and promoting continuous improvement within your team(s). This role demands moderately complex to complex work, independent initiative, and judgment, as well as the ability to respond quickly and adjust to changing department or team needs.
Key Responsibilities:
- As a Scrum Master, you will instruct the Scrum Team on the application of Scrum and SAFe practices and patterns, ensuring the delivery of high-quality products and services to our customers.

- Working in collaboration with other team members, you will contribute to the enhancement of Agile practices within the organization through Communities of Practice.
- Your work will significantly impact the results of the department, influencing departmental strategies. You will make decisions on moderately complex issues, exercising discretion and judgment over policies and practices, working independently to determine the approach to your work and set priorities and timelines.

Oh, and one more thing … a recent study shows that men apply for a job or promotion when they meet only 60% of the qualifications, but women and other marginalized groups apply only if they meet 100% of them. So, if you think you’d be a great fit, but don’t necessarily meet every single requirement on one of our job openings, please still apply. We’d love to consider your application!
