Project Overview The Government of Alberta (GoA) has embarked on transforming the work of government to deliver simpler, more efficient, and better services for the citizens of Alberta, thereby ensuring that the needs of Albertans are effectively met in the digital age. The Province has a strategic role within government to drive efficiencies, innovation and modernization. The Digital Design and Delivery Division (DDD) is the Provinces new centre for digital delivery. It was established to maximize capability and confidence in modern digital practice by ensuring service quality and value through standards and controls. This includes utilizing human-centred design approaches together with agile methodology and modern data practices. DDD works in partnership with GoA ministries to deliver programs that better serve Albertans.

DDD requires up to four (4) Scrum Masters to work with DDD on service innovation, program review, and digital transformation projects across the GoA. The Scrum Master(s) will work as part of cross-functional program review or product delivery teams. These teams, led by GoA product owners and DDD work collaboratively, and collectively participate in a full range of activities including field research, backlog definition and refinement, and sprint planning and execution. Digital transformation projects review the current state of services, identify future opportunities, and then deliver new services that are efficient, effective and affordable. Scrum Master(s) identify and remove roadblocks and distractions that affect sprint commitments and prevent delivery of product features. Scrum Master(s) will be responsible for the management of the agile sprint process for cross-functional program review or product delivery teams. Scrum Master(s) will provide leadership and mentoring in agile principles, policies, and procedures, to enable the teams to self-organize and deliver consistently on sprint deliverables.

However, Scrum Master(s) may be required to work fewer or more hours depending on the nature and needs of their work, as directed by the Province.

  • Lead and facilitate key agile ceremonies, including planning sessions, stand-ups, sprint reviews, product demos, retrospectives, and refinement. This could also include ad hoc sessions.
  • Facilitate effective delivery of Services and deliverables by the cross-functional program review and product delivery teams through coaching and guiding the GoA product owner and the team. Specifically: o Coach the team on the application of agile methodology including how to provide effective estimates and sprint commitments, how to adjust for external dependencies, how to eliminate blocking issues, etc. o Promote the successful achievement of sprint goals and commitments, by acting as the intermediary between the GoA product owner and team. o Guide the GoA product owner on reporting, release planning, and road-mapping. Maintain delivery metrics and report on product level plans, progress, and quality assurance using project management tools and Artifacts such as sprint burndown/velocity charts, product backlogs, and sprint backlogs. The Scrum Master(s) will be required to report on progress to the Province as directed. Participate in digital service delivery activities, such as user research and usability testing.

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
