The Perfect Candidate:

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 SW 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.
• You 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).
• Min 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.
