Leidos is looking for our next TS/SCI cleared Scrum Master to join a high energy team building and deploying a cutting edge technology stack in support of the DIA NDOC (National Digital Exploitation and OSINT Center) DOMEX Technology Platform (DTP). Under this 10-year contract containing multiple Task Orders, we support the DOMEX Data Discovery Platform (D3P) Modernization program as well as NDOC’s mission to centralize and standardize Tasking, Collection, Processing, Exploitation and Dissemination (TCPED) of Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) across the DoD and IC enterprise.
While most work is conducted on-site at our client location in Bethesda, MD, we offer a flexible schedule and, occasionally, some tasks may be performed remotely.
What You’ll Do:
As the Scrum Master, you will lead a multidisciplinary, Agile software development team engaged in building an industry-leading streaming data pipeline focused on analysis of OSINT datasets and a workflow management tool.
You will work closely with a multi-disciplinary team of engineers, architects, developers, software integrators, and system administrators on the following key tasks:
- Facilitate Agile ceremonies, including sprint planning, daily standups, sprint reviews, release planning, and retrospectives.
- Coach and mentor distributed Agile teams to improve Agile maturity, promote self-organization, and drive continuous improvement.
- Support Product Owner/Systems Engineer in managing team backlogs, prioritizing work, and aligning scope and schedules with program objectives.
- Proactively identify and remove impediments, manage dependencies, and mitigate risks across a large Agile Release Train to ensure timely delivery of high-quality software.
- Foster a high-performing, collaborative team environment through effective communication, conflict resolution, and continuous improvement of team dynamics.
- Monitor team performance, facilitate data-driven retrospectives, and implement process improvements to increase productivity and delivery effectiveness.
- Coordinate with stakeholders to ensure transparency, maintain appropriate documentation, and support successful delivery of program objectives.
What You Bring:
You’re enthusiastic, collaborative, curious, and comfortable working with teammates across a range of technical backgrounds. You also meet the following qualifications:
- Bachelor’s degree and 4-8 years of prior relevant experience as a Scrum Master or in a similar role on a software development program, or Master’s with 2-6 years of prior relevant experience, technical discipline preferred
- Must possess an Active Top Secret/SCI clearance and ability to obtain and maintain a CI Poly
- Certified Scrum Master (CSM) or SAFe Scrum Master (SSM) certification
- Excellent communication, collaboration, and conflict resolution skills
- Experience with SAFe methodology
- Experience with task and ticket management tools such as Gitlab
- Proven ability to balance concurrent activities
- Strong knowledge and experience in software development in an Agile or SAFe environment
- Ability to quickly build rapport and keep a positive and motivated team environment
- Self-driven with a sense of ownership of the project, team, and processes
You will wow us even more if you have some of these skills:
- Familiarity with modern development approaches (serverless, containerization, cloud, continuous delivery, micro-services, event based applications)
- Experience with cloud deployment and cloud-based solutions
- Experience supporting back end teams such as infrastructure, devops, or data.
