6 days ago

Leeds, United Kingdom MPowered Mortgages Full time

MQube is a second-stage Fintech Start-Up, revolutionising the Mortgage world with our micro-serviced, AI-based solutions. Our software epitomises bleeding-edge innovation. We are a young, dynamic company based between Leeds and Guildford, where technology innovators are given a chance to flex their prowess and shine.

However.. innovation benefits from organisation, which is where you’ll come in.

Ideally, have 1+ years’ commercial experience, having worked on software development projects, appreciating Agile, and understanding the full SDLC. You may have some relevant qualifications, but real-world experience is better.

This is essentially a junior scrum master role but in a start-up style, involving management reporting, stakeholder interaction, product analysis, and requirements awareness/adjustment.

We’d like you to take the reins on our current scrum processes understand and improve them. This role is perfect for a sharp individual who knows they can add more to a tech-based organisation but might feel they aren’t in the right place to do so.

You’ll be helping a youthful energetic team perform to their best abilities and requires an all-hands-on-deck awareness and mindset. I’d think adding something like “This is a youthful team with lots of energy and drive as well as passion for what we are delivering. As the scrum master you will look to focus the team’s energy onto the things that matter most at that moment.”
