Scrum Master

About us

Internet connected and smart home products are growing areas for Dyson where we aim to continue our reputation of being innovative and disruptive. Since our first launch of products in the connected space, we have grown fast to several millions of connected machines, and we are envisioning a steep growth in 2022 and beyond both in scale and connected features.

We want to expand the team to build reliable, scalable, and secure services and features to support these increasing demands with innovative and competitive technologies in IoT, Machine Data Lake, Data Analytics and Machine Learning to support our vision

We have a ‘You build it, you run it’ ethos and run all our services within Amazon Web Services (AWS).  Our teams are responsible for the architecture, development, testing, and operational support of their services in all environments. We are a global department with teams located in the UK, Singapore, and China and we encourage flexible, independent, and innovative thinking in our engineers to deliver solutions.

About the role

As a Scrum Master at Dyson, you will work with one or two teams delivering Cloud software for a range of exciting, connected products.

You will be responsible for ensuring your teams live agile values and principles and follow the agreed processes and practices. Day-to-day you will work with your teams to remove impediments, coach team members and help facilitate agile ceremonies. You will work with the extended Scrum Master community, including SAFe Release Train Engineers (RTEs) to improve agile practices, share good practice and increase the effectiveness of SAFe within Dyson, ensuring the Scrum principles and methodologies are adhered to.

Working within the Cloud software environment, you will not necessarily have an in-depth understanding of technical aspects, but you will be able to quickly pick-up new concepts and be comfortable with portraying technical information.

Ideally, you will have experience of working in a similar organisation and bring with you a wealth of ideas and the drive to make a difference within a dynamic and challenging environment.
