Role Technical Scrum Master
Client Ascension Health
Location Remote
Positions: 2
Client Notes: We are looking for 1-2 Scrum Masters to drive end-to-end application retirement and decommissioning workstreams across the portfolio. Candidates will manage multiple parallel workstreams, requiring strong dependency management and coordination across app owners, infrastructure teams, finance, and governance stakeholders. A key callout is that the environment utilizes a hybrid of both Agile and Waterfall methodologies, with the majority of the tracking and execution done in JIRA. Overall, this is a straightforward execution role focused specifically on managing Ascension-side responsibilities.
Role Overview:
We are seeking a Technical Scrum Master to manage the application retirement and decommissioning workstreams end-to-end, including coordination across application owners, infrastructure teams, finance, and governance stakeholders. Given the scale of the program, we expect to execute multiple workstreams in parallel and will likely require multiple Scrum Masters to effectively manage dependencies and drive execution across the portfolio.
You will guide a specialized team of Data Modelers and Business Analysts through the design phase and lead the execution of the delivery phase. You will be responsible for ensuring that complex dependencies are tracked, managed, and delivered on schedule.
Core Responsibilities
1. Technical Facilitation & Working Sessions
Lead and facilitate technical working sessions focused on cloud migration
Bridge communication between architects and stakeholders, ensuring technical blockers are identified and addressed in real-time.
Guide the team through resource-level decomposition discussions, ensuring the "Business Aligned Interpretation" stays on track.
2. Delivery Management & Dependency Tracking
Drive the end-to-end delivery of the data modeling framework and the "Serve Layer" alignment.
Proactively manage backlog dependencies, specifically coordinating between data acquisition (External sources) and internal consumption
Ensure that "Reusable Patterns" are prioritized within the sprint to accelerate future use cases.
3. Agile Governance & Reporting
Maintain a high-integrity backlog in JIRA, ensuring all deliverables (Mapping insights, Schema designs, and Curation strategies) are clearly defined and estimated.
Provide robust progress reporting and velocity tracking, using JIRA dashboards to communicate status to senior leadership.
Manage the transition from the initial Design phase to the full Implementation/Delivery phase (T&M or Contract-based).
Agile Expertise: Certified Scrum Master (CSM) or equivalent experience, with a deep mastery of JIRA for managing complex, non-linear design tasks.
Delivery-Focused: Proven track record of moving projects from "Abstract Design" to "Technical Delivery."
Dependency Specialist: Expert at identifying and mitigating risks in data-heavy environments where source-system availability is a factor.
Key Deliverables
Sprint Cadence Management: Successful execution of all ceremonies (Planning, Daily Stand-ups, Reviews, Retrospectives).
JIRA Roadmap & Backlog: A fully groomed, transparent backlog with clearly mapped dependencies across the FHIR/CDA workstream.
Executive Status Reports: Weekly burn-down charts and milestone tracking specifically highlighting progress on the cloud migration
Delivery Transition Plan: A clear roadmap for the post-design phase to ensure seamless implementation.
