Senior Scrum Master / Project Manager

Project description

You'll join the video platform program of a major US pay-TV and streaming provider. The program builds the Android-based streaming and set-top-box app used by millions of subscribers. You'll support two distributed client-app teams: Discovery & Personalization: content discovery, GenAI features, partner integrations and live sports. Core Experience Services: cloud DVR, bookmarks, notifications, Sports Mode and page layout. The program runs on SAFe-style scaled Agile, with 2-week sprints and quarterly PI planning. The role combines Scrum Master work for both teams with an Epic Delivery Lead / Project Manager function. Its focus is stronger delivery governance: estimates, budget tracking, dependency ownership and quality triage.

Responsibilities

• Run all Scrum ceremonies and plan capacity for both teams. Keep Jira boards accurate and healthy, and run regular bug and incident triage. Remove blockers and escalate to program leadership when needed. Own planning, delivery and launch of large cross-team epics, from pre-planning through PI planning to post-launch. Make sure every epic has an engineering estimate, and track burn against that estimate. Manage cross-team and partner dependencies, risks and stakeholder reporting. Coordinate production readiness, release candidates, and rollout and rollback plans.

SKILLS

Must have

• 5–7 years as a Scrum Master, Delivery Manager or Technical Project Manager. Experience serving 2+ distributed teams across time zones.

Nice to have

OTT/streaming, Android TV / set-top box, cloud DVR or live sports experience. Experience delivering GenAI features. SAFe, CSM/PSM or PMP certification. Release management and KPI monitoring experience.
