The team you’ll be a part of is a diverse yet close-knit group of innovators, engineers, and problem-solvers who thrive on tackling tough challenges. We’re hands-on and wear many hats. If you love rolling up your sleeves and pushing the boundaries, you’ll feel right at home here.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead Scrum ceremonies (Daily Stand-ups, Backlog Grooming, Sprint Planning, Retrospectives, and Demos) for one or more software development teams.
  • Collaborate with Product Owners and stakeholders to gather requirements, refine user stories, and ensure alignment with business priorities.
  • Support Product Owners in maintaining clear and prioritized backlogs aligned with business goals.
  • Track team performance (sprint velocity), remove roadblocks, and proactively mitigate delivery risks.
  • Identify deficiencies and drive continuous improvement in development processes, tools, and communication workflows.
  • Coordinate deliverables across teams and manage dependencies with cross-functional groups including HW, QA, FPGA, and product management.
  • Coach and mentor team members in Agile principles and best practices to foster a culture of collaboration, accountability, and innovation.

Qualifications:

Must Have’s:

  • Bachelor’s degree or higher in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related discipline.
  • 2-5 years of experience as a Scrum Master managing multi-disciplinary software development teams.
  • Familiarity with Atlassian tools (JIRA, Confluence) and Agile reporting dashboards.
  • Demonstrated ability to manage Scrum processes for multiple distributed teams across different time zones.
  • Demonstrated success in defining and standardizing Agile processes across teams.
  • Strong understanding of Agile methodologies (Scrum, Kanban).
  • Experience working with Product Owners on requirements and backlog refinement.
  • Excellent facilitation, organizational, and communication skills.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities.

Nice to Have’s:

  • Certified Scrum Master (CSM), PSM, or equivalent certification.
  • Previous software development experience or strong technical background huge plus.
  • Experience in the video delivery or streaming domain (e.g., OTT, MPEG, HLS/DASH, DRM, or distribution over IP Multicast, QAM etc.) – another massive plus.
  • Experience with DevOps pipelines, CI/CD, and cloud-based development.
  • Resides in east of the GTA, preferably in the Durham region.

Why Join Us?

  • We’re small but mighty - your contributions have a real, visible impact.
  • Competitive compensation and benefits package and unlimited vacations!
  • Small dynamic teams with opportunities for professional growth.
  • Diverse, collaborative, innovative and forward-thinking environment.
  • We work hard, play hard - that means team lunches, board game nights, escape rooms, and plenty of socializing.
