We are seeking a Scrum Master with a strong IT project management background to lead Application Development projects from initiation through successful delivery. The ideal candidate will combine Scrum Master responsibilities with traditional project management expertise, including project planning, budgeting, resource allocation, risk management, and stakeholder reporting.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead Application Development projects from initiation through completion.

• Apply Agile and Scrum methodologies to manage development teams and project deliverables.

• Define project scope, objectives, success criteria, milestones, and timelines.

• Manage project dependencies, critical paths, change control, testing, and documentation.

• Prepare project budgets, estimate resource requirements, and manage resource allocation.

• Coordinate internal team members, external consultants, and contractors.

• Coach and mentor team members and resolve conflicts within project teams.

• Communicate project status, progress, risks, and expectations to stakeholders and senior management.

• Proactively identify and manage project risks, issues, and scope changes.

• Develop contingency plans and conduct post-project reviews.

• Prepare lessons-learned documents and project recommendation reports.

• Monitor IT system status, identify root causes of service failures, and coordinate remediation.

• Support and implement DevOps practices within application development projects.
