Why This Job is Featured on The SaaS Jobs
This Senior Scrum Master role sits at the intersection of product delivery and platform operations, supporting a ServiceNow environment inside a large SaaS organization. In the broader SaaS ecosystem, platform teams often function as internal products, where reliability, governance, and predictable throughput directly affect customer-facing engineering and support outcomes. The emphasis on flow across multiple workstreams reflects the kind of coordination challenges that emerge when SaaS companies standardise processes at scale.
From a SaaS career perspective, the position builds durable skills in delivery instrumentation and stakeholder alignment, including translating delivery signals into leadership-ready reporting. Experience balancing Scrum and Kanban, managing dependencies, and improving demand and backlog practices tends to transfer well across SaaS contexts, from core product teams to shared platform groups. The exposure to global collaboration also mirrors how many SaaS companies run distributed delivery.
This role is best suited to an experienced Agile practitioner who prefers operating beyond a single team and is comfortable influencing without direct authority. It will fit someone who enjoys diagnosing bottlenecks, coaching product and engineering partners, and using metrics to support decisions in complex, tool-driven environments such as Jira, Confluence, and ServiceNow.
