Role Description

This is a full-time on-site role located in New Delhi for a Scrum Master (XR Technologies). The Scrum Master will facilitate daily stand-up meetings, sprint planning, and retrospectives, ensuring the team adheres to Scrum principles. Responsibilities also include collaborating with developers to create and refine user stories, monitoring project progress, and removing impediments to ensure timely delivery. The Scrum Master will communicate effectively with all stakeholders to ensure alignment and transparency.

Your major roles & responsibilities will include:

• Facilitating Agile Processes
• Sprint Planning: Assist the team in breaking down complex AR/VR features into actionable tasks that can be completed within a sprint.
• Daily Stand-ups: Ensure that the team communicates effectively about blockers, progress, and next steps. This is particularly crucial when handling unique challenges with AR/VR technologies, like hardware integration or simulation fidelity.
• Sprint Reviews and Retrospectives: Help the team gather feedback from stakeholders, including UX/UI designers, engineers, and clients.
• Facilitate discussions on what worked well and where improvements can be made, especially for new tech like AR/VR.
• Removing Impediments.
• Facilitating Cross-Disciplinary Communication.
• Ensuring Effective Sprint Execution
• Continuous Improvement of processes
• Promoting a Culture of Innovation.
• Stakeholder Management and Communication.
• Ensuring Quality and Compliance Support.
• Ensure Agile Compliance within a Formal Process Framework.
• Tailor Scrum ceremonies to include formal documentation checkpoints where needed.
• Documentation and Traceability
• Ensure all sprint artifacts are documented, version-controlled, and easily auditable
• Facilitate the creation and maintenance of formal deliverables such as- Requirements traceability matrices, Change logs, Test reports & Simulation validation records etc.
• Work with the Product Owner and QA to ensure stories are linked to formal requirements and that acceptance criteria map to validation procedures.
• Risk Management Integration
• Ensure risks are actively tracked in a risk register (formalized or embedded within the backlog).
• Integrate risk mitigation actions into sprint planning.
• Ensure compliance with risk management protocols where required.
• Managing Technical Debt: AR/VR projects tend to evolve quickly, so there can be a lot of technical debt if features are implemented too hastily. The Scrum Master can guide the team to balance innovation with maintaining clean, maintainable code.
• Anticipating Technical Challenges: Given that AR/VR is relatively new and hardware-specific, the Scrum Master needs to proactively identify potential risks such as device compatibility, hardware shortages, or unforeseen simulation glitches.
• Change Control
• Facilitate structured change management processes.
• Work with the Product Owner and stakeholders to assess the impact of scope changes on cost, schedule, and compliance.
• Maintain a formalized change request and approval log in addition to Agile backlog adjustments.

• Coordinate with DevOps or Configuration Managers to ensure formal versioning practices for:
• Simulation builds
• 3D models and assets
• Device firmware/software
• Ensure all assets used in the AR/VR simulation are version-controlled and documented, particularly for regulatory or audit purposes.
• Facilitating Formal Reviews and Demo Meetings
• Organize and support formal review events such as:
• Design Reviews (PDR, CDR)
• Test Readiness Reviews (TRR)
• Final Acceptance Reviews (FAR)
• Prepare formal documentation and metrics like velocity, defect rates, test coverage, etc. required for executive or compliance reviews.
• Audit Readiness and Compliance Support
• Support internal and external audits by maintaining clean, accessible records of team activities and decisions.
• Train the team on compliance-related aspects of Agile delivery. Ensure teams understand formal escalation paths and exception handling procedures.
• Stakeholder Reporting and Metrics
• Provide formal performance reporting to stakeholders:
• Sprint progress summaries
• Release burn-up charts
• Quality metrics (defects, test coverage, etc.)
• Use dashboards or reports ( Confluence & JIRA) that comply with PMO or regulatory oversight standards.
• Collaborate with PMOs to ensure Agile practices align with the organization’s delivery and compliance frameworks.
• Help balance agility with formal milestone tracking and gated project funding models.
• Serve as a liaison between technical teams and formal project governance.
• Support Quality Assurance and Test Governance
• Ensure QA activities are integrated into the Agile process:
• Test case development aligned with acceptance criteria
• Usability testing for immersive AR/VR experiences
• Facilitate integration of QA processes such as peer reviews, audit trails, and test result documentation.
