You will experience these qualities of passion, pride and aspiration in many ways — from a rich set of career development programs to support of community service projects to social events that foster fun and relationship building across our global community.

The Role

We are seeking a highly motivated Technical Scrum Master (Agile Team Lead) to support Agile teams delivering high-quality software solutions for AspenTech’s Manufacturing & Supply Chain portfolio.

This role requires a strong foundation in software development and Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) practices, combined with experience serving as a SAFe Scrum Master or Agile Team Lead. The ideal candidate is a servant leader and advocate for SAFe who coaches teams, facilitates effective execution, removes impediments, and drives continuous improvement across the delivery lifecycle.

The Scrum Master will partner with Product Owners, Product Management, Architects, Engineers, and Quality teams to foster predictable delivery, built-in quality, technical excellence, and high-performing Agile teams.

  • Facilitate Iteration Planning, Daily Standups, Backlog Refinement, Reviews, Retrospectives, PI Planning, System Demos, and Inspect & Adapt events
  • Promote and advocate SAFe, Agile, Lean, and continuous improvement
  • Guide teams in applying SDLC practices across planning, development, testing, integration, validation, and release readiness
  • Identify, track, and remove impediments while escalating organizational blockers when necessary
  • Support Product Owners and teams in maintaining healthy backlogs, clear priorities, and predictable execution
  • Foster a culture of built-in quality, engineering excellence, DevOps adoption, and CI/CD practices
  • Coordinate cross-team dependencies and facilitate collaboration across Agile teams within the ART
  • Use Agile metrics, flow metrics, team health indicators, and delivery KPIs to improve transparency and outcomes
  • Coach team members, Product Owners, and stakeholders on Agile best practices and effective SAFe execution

What You'll Need

  • 6+ years of total experience, including:
  • 3+ years in software development, technical lead, or engineering roles
  • 3+ years as a Scrum Master, Agile Team Lead, or SAFe Scrum Master
  • Strong understanding of the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC), including requirements, design, development, testing, integration, and release management
  • Practical experience implementing SAFe, Scrum, Kanban, and Agile delivery methodologies
  • Experience facilitating Agile ceremonies and leading distributed, cross-functional teams
  • Hands-on experience with Agile lifecycle tools such as Azure DevOps (ADO), Jira, or equivalent
  • Strong knowledge of DevOps, CI/CD, Agile quality practices, and delivery flow management
  • Excellent communication, facilitation, coaching, conflict resolution
  • Ability to influence teams, encourage accountability, and build alignment without direct authority
  • Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Engineering, Information Systems, or a related discipline

Nice to Have:

  • SAFe certifications such as Certified SAFe Scrum Master (SSM), Advanced Scrum Master (SASM), or RTE
  • Prior experience in Oil & Gas, Refining, Petrochemical, Manufacturing, or Supply Chain software solutions
  • Experience supporting multiple Agile teams within a large-scale ART environment
  • Software development experience
  • Key Emphasis: Servant Leadership & SAFe Execution

This role requires a strong servant-leadership mindset and a passion for fostering high-performing Agile teams. Success depends on coaching teams in SAFe principles, enabling continuous improvement, removing impediments, facilitating effective collaboration, and ensuring predictable delivery of customer value. A technical background and deep understanding of SDLC are highly valued, enabling the Scrum Master to partner effectively with engineering teams while promoting Agile excellence, quality, and delivery effectiveness.
