**Scrum Master**

================

The perfect candidate is a proactive team player who drives continuous improvement and seeks a workplace where a job title is just the starting point.

You must be a certified Scrum Master (CSM/PSMI) with a technical degree, practical Git experience, and a strong willingness to write thorough documentation for highly regulated environments like medical devices.

While experience with C++, containerization, or event-driven architectures is a great bonus, this role requires an eagerness to engage with physical hardware and low-level systems rather than pure web, UI, or cloud-native development.

**Tasks \& Responsibilities:**

We are looking for a Scrum Master to join our PCR Hardware Abstraction team and part of an Agile Release train (ART) following SAFe, developing C++ based real-time control software that drives the mechatronics, thermal, fluidic and optical subsystems of our in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) PCR instruments. Our software runs on PREEMPT_RT Linux and interfaces directly with custom electronics and sensors. Minimum working capacity is 50% and maximum 80%.

* Act as a Scrum Master and team coach for the software development team, facilitating progress, resolving blockers, and increasing workplace transparency.

* Empower the team by applying proven Agile techniques, fostering conflict resolution, situational awareness, and continuous improvement.

* Collaborate proactively within self-organizing teams to define, estimate, and plan high-impact work packages.

* Leverage modern AI-supporting tools throughout the entire development lifecycle to optimize coding, testing, and troubleshooting workflows.

* Ensure compliance with processes, propose improvements, and stay informed about regulatory and market standards.

**Must Haves:**

You're a self-motivated team player; it is natural for you to be proactive in working with your teammates and in working with other parts of the organization. You like sharing your know-how to help the whole team advance. Bringing in new ideas to improve existing products with new functions and cost optimization is important to you.

You're looking for a company where you have the opportunity to pursue your interests across functions and geographies, where a job title is not considered the final definition of who you are, but the starting point.

* A Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, IT, or a related technical field (or equivalent practical experience).

* Minimum 4 years experience serving as a Scrum Master for a software development team, diligently applying Scrum practices and theory.

* Certification in Scrum methodologies (such as CSM or PSMI) alongside deep knowledge of servant leadership, facilitation, and team empowerment techniques.

* Practical understanding of modern development ecosystems, including Git/GitHub version control and setting up basic build environments.

* Basic experience with C++ programming.

* Exceptional communication and interpersonal skills, with a natural ability to connect teams and resolve conflicts.

* Highly motivated, deadline-focused, with a proactive and thorough way of working.

* Willingness to work in a regulated environment (medical device, automotive, aerospace, or industrial safety) and follow structured development processes.

* Excellent communication and teamwork skills; willingness to write good documentation and drive work to conclusion.

* Fluent in English.

**Nice to Have:**

* Experience with IEC 62304, ISO 13485, or IVDR (medical device software lifecycle standards).

* Experience with event-driven architectures and message brokers (RabbitMQ, Domain Driven Design).

* Kubernetes, Docker for CI/build environments.

* Experience in agile development environments.

* German language skills.

**What is Offered to You:**

* A chance to contribute to one of the most significant pharmaceutical companies in the world.

* Modern campus with plenty of green spaces and interaction zones.

* Central location with highway access and nearby train station.

* Diverse task profile.

* Home office possibilities.

* Further training opportunities through temptraining.

* Participation in a dynamic and motivated team.

* Good remuneration.
