Job Overview:

We are looking for a Software Scrum Master & Engineering Manager to lead our high-performing development team through the full software lifecycle. In this role, you will balance technical resource management with Agile advocacy to ensure the delivery of scalable, business-aligned solutions.

The ideal candidate is a hands-on leader with intermediate to expert knowledge in the Air Traffic Management (ATM), Ground-based Detect & Avoid (GBDAA), and Counter UAS (C-UAS) ecosystems. We are looking for a leader who can bridge the gap between high-level strategy and tactical execution, expertly resolving bottlenecks to sustain project momentum. You will utilize your organizational insight to handle multifaceted stakeholder demands while ensuring on-time delivery of all project requirements.

What You Will Do:

This position is central to driving the execution of technical plans, ensuring that all project elements are prioritized and delivered per the set requirements. The role will include the following activities:  
· Facilitate Agile-based project activities:
Ensure that all Agile ceremonies (e.g., daily stand-ups, sprint planning, retrospectives) are effectively carried out. Protect the team from external distractions and eliminate impediments to progress.  
· Technical Stewardship:
Interpret and communicate the technical director's plans to the team, ensuring alignment and understanding. Define system architecture, coding standards, and engineering best practices. Oversee code quality, technical debt, and the integration of modern tools like AI-augmented development workflows.  
· Stakeholder & Resource Management:
Collaborate with Product Owners to refine backlogs and align technical requirements with product roadmaps. Manage project budgets, resource allocation, and timelines while providing data-driven status reports to executive leadership.  
· Monitor & Improve:
Manage and verify all requirements, test plans, demo preparations, bug lists, and IRAD (Independent Research and Development) work. Sign off on completed work after thorough validation, ensuring all tasks meet the specified standards. Keep a detailed account of project status updates and facilitate the smooth progress of all project activities. Foster a "fail fast, learn fast" culture, using agile metrics (e.g., velocity, cycle time) to drive team efficiency and innovation.

· Strategic Planning & Business Development:
Assist in aligning product development cycles and performance benchmarks with the broader company strategy. Work with business development teams to draft winning proposals and maintain strong customer relations.
