Salesforce Scrum Master

Location:

4910 Tiedeman Road - Brooklyn, Ohio 44144

We’re backfilling a high‑impact Scrum Master who helped our Salesforce/nCino Commercial Bank program deliver consistent, well‑tracked increments across Commercial Onboarding , Service Cloud, and DocuSign integration workstreams. You will coach one to two squads, drive Agile ceremonies, and ensure delivery hygiene across sprints and Program Increments—keeping Jira/Jira Align clean and partner teams unblocked—while aligning time, scope, and change in EPPIC.

What you’ll do

• Coach & facilitate: Run daily scrums, sprint planning, reviews, and retros; reinforce Definition of Ready/Done; elevate impediments early and drive to resolution with POs, Tech Leads and external teams.
• Plan & deliver predictably: Partner with Product Owners to maintain healthy backlogs; help teams craft sprint goals connected to PI objectives; orchestrate demo readiness and support PI readouts.
• Own delivery hygiene: Maintain clean Jira/Jira Align hierarchies (Story→Feature→Initiative), accurate story points and statuses, and sprint closeouts that withstand fiscal/PI cutovers.
• Shepherd release flow: Align sprint outcomes to the Salesforce COE release calendar; coordinate cut dates; socialize change risk/lead times across COS workstreams.
• EPPIC stewardship: Ensure timely and accurate timesheets, help leaders with period‑end completeness checks, and raise EPPIC Project Change Requests (CRs) when scope/schedule designations need updates.
• Cross‑team unblocking: Coordinate with enterprise platforms (e.g., Hogan, Commercial Digital) and partner squads when dependencies or data/process gates impede COS squads.
• Continuous improvement: Share meaningful metrics; facilitate retros that lead to measurable experiments; advocate for team health and sustainable pace.

Must‑have qualifications

• Proven Scrum Master (2–5+ years) in product‑centric delivery, ideally within Salesforce ecosystems or adjacent onboarding/servicing platforms. Evidence of driving cadence across squads and PIs.
• Hands‑on with Jira and Jira Align—able to keep hierarchies clean and guide teams to close sprints accurately before fiscal/PI deadlines.
• Working knowledge of EPPIC processes—timesheet cycles, fiscal month/quarter close expectations, and how to initiate/document EPPIC Change Requests.
• Strong facilitation, coaching, and stakeholder management across Product, Engineering, QA and Operations.

Preferred

• Experience with nCino/Salesforce delivery in commercial onboarding & servicing; familiarity with Hogan concepts helpful.
• Comfortable curating release calendars and coordinating change windows across multiple squads.
• Background in banking/fintech onboarding flows (e.g., DDA opening, specialty accounts, DocuSign envelopes).
• Certifications: CSM/PSM, SAFe SSM, or equivalent.
