Subject: Scrum Master role

Good afternoon.  Your resume came up in my search and I was hoping to speak with you re: a Scrum Master role with Starbucks.  Please review job details below and get back to me with your interest and availability. We can then schedule a time to discuss further.

The role for this position is Scrum Master for a software implementation project using an Agile software development methodology. This is a very specialized role with some skills similar to project management skills but some quite different.

 Key responsibilities for this role:

 Facilitate Scrum related meetings including defect stand-ups, story time, retrospective, etc.
 Maintain Scrum board
 Remove roadblocks
 Provide training/coaching
 implementation and adoption of additional Agile techniques if/as required

 Scrum Master experience in large complex enterprise level IT implementations is required
 Scrum Master certification is highly desirable

 Scrum Master job summary and responsibilities
 The scrum master is responsible for the Scrum process and has to make sure everybody in the
 team, the product owner, and anyone else involved in the project knows and understands the
 process. The scrum master makes sure that everyone follows the rules and practices of the
 Scrum process. So the scrum master does not manage the team; the team is self-managing.
 If a conflict occurs in the team, the scrum master should be the oil that makes the team
 smoothly work out their problems. It is also the scrum masters responsibility to protect the
 team from the outside world so they can work in peace and quiet during the sprint, focused
 on delivering business value.

 Scrum Master Responsibilities
 Removing the barriers between development and the customer so the customer
 directly drives development
 Teaching the customer how to maximize ROI and meet their objectives through Scrum
 Improving the lives of the development team by facilitating creativity and
 empowerment
 Improving the productivity of the development team in any way possible
 Improving the engineering practices and tools so each increment of functionality
 is potentially shippable

Thank you!
