Job Description

Scrum Master facilitating Agile practices within user journey-aligned pods at Quility Insurance. Leading teams for high-quality delivery in a fast-paced Insurtech setup.

Responsibilities:

  • Facilitate all core Scrum ceremonies (daily standups, sprint planning, reviews, retrospectives, and backlog refinement) with consistency and intentionality
  • Coach teams on Agile and SAFe principles, continuously improving delivery practices and team accountability
  • Partner closely with Product Owners to ensure backlog items are well-defined, prioritized, and ready for execution
  • Proactively identify and escalate risks and roadblocks before they impact delivery - owning resolution rather than waiting for direction
  • Track and surface team progress, risks, and impediments to stakeholders and leadership with transparency and regularity
  • Support PI Planning participation, including capacity input, dependency identification, and commitment tracking
  • Maintain accurate capacity data and flag resourcing constraints early to enable proactive planning decisions
  • Create and maintain project plans, sprint-level timelines, and status documentation in Confluence
  • Collaborate with team on Jira hygiene within your pod(s) - ensuring tickets are appropriately structured, updated, and reflective of actual work in flight
  • Manage complex cross-pod and cross-functional dependencies (particularly those where Core Framework work is a blocker or enabler for other product pods) ensuring nothing falls through the cracks
  • Step into an active delivery environment quickly, establishing trust and cadence with an established team
  • Ensure cross-pod and cross-functional alignment, particularly where dependencies touch Finance, Engineering, or Portfolio Operations

Requirements:

  • 3-5+ years of experience in a Scrum Master role, preferably within a product-led or technology organization
  • CSM certification required; SAFe certification strongly preferred
  • PMP or equivalent project management background preferred
  • Bachelor's degree in a related field or equivalent professional experience
  • Prior experience with technology or SaaS companies

Benefits:

  • This job operates in a professional office environment
  • This role routinely uses standard office equipment such as computers, phones, photocopiers, filing cabinets and fax machines.
