Atlanta, Georgia, United States Object Systems International Full time
About the Role

This unique position combines the responsibilities of a Product Analyst and a Scrum Master within a software engineering team. As a Product Analyst, you will collaborate with engineers to deliver high-impact features that enhance our platform. Additionally, you will reinforce our Agile practices as a Scrum Master and facilitate Scrum ceremonies. Our next hire will become a domain expert, ensuring the team builds quality products that meet user and business needs while reinforcing the focus of our engineers and managing external expectations.

Key Responsibilities
  • Domain Expertise: Understand the team's responsibilities and lead exercises to model domain knowledge into actionable backlogs and assist in team refinements.
  • QA: Validate the quality of product features through manual QA processes, including building and maintaining comprehensive test cases and test suites.
  • User Advocacy: Ensure that user needs are front and center in all decision-making processes and be the voice of the user within the team during refinement and planning sessions.
  • Team Representation: Effectively communicate the status of the team's work, including current and upcoming backlog items, and advocate for team priorities.
  • Backlog Development: Advocate for prioritization of backlog based on domain knowledge and business priorities while helping create and refine user stories that meet the INVEST criteria in the LeSS framework.
  • Facilitate Scrum Ceremonies: Stand-ups, sprint planning, reviews, and retrospectives.
  • Guidance: Coach the engineering team on Agile/Scrum best-practices, principles, and promote self-management.
  • Tracking & Reporting: Use metrics to track the team's progress through sprint cycles and utilize metric reports to maintain alignment and transparency with stakeholders.
  • Removing Obstacles: Identify and remove any blockers or impediments that could slow down the team's progress by resolving resource issues, dealing with external dependencies, or facilitating communication between stakeholders and members of the feature team.
Qualifications & Requirements

Education and Experience Level

  • A bachelor's degree in a related field is preferred (or equivalent experience).
  • Certification(s) in Agile/Scrum Product Ownership or Scrum Framework methodology preferred, but not required.
  • Four (4) years of experience as a liaison between internal/external business leads and the end user community in an Agile/Large-Scale Scrum (LeSS) environment.

  • Experience within, and a firm understanding of, Agile/Scrum methodology and the software development lifecycle.
  • Ability to overcome obstacles in the SDLC with minimal external intervention.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to represent both the user's and team's perspectives to various stakeholders.
  • Ability to manage multiple tasks and prioritize effectively in a fast-paced, agile environment.
  • Proficiency in creating documentation that is both technical and user-facing.
