Scrum Master

End to End Owner

You’ve applied to Bloodcuff. The hiring team has asked you to take the next step here: an evaluation run by Evidal — a conversation about real work you’ve done, not a form. What you say goes to the hiring team as a structured read of your experience.

This isn’t a resume. It’s a conversation about real work you’ve done — not bullet points, not titles, not buzzwords. Every evaluation runs the same way, for everyone. Nobody is filtered out by keywords. Learn more ↗

Scrum Master

OUR ORIGIN STORY 🎂 In 2011 SkySlope started as an idea born at the kitchen table of our CEO, with just him and two others. Headquartered in Sacramento, California, we have since grown out of our previous 3 offices and many of our close to 150 employees are spread all across the United States. Those 150 employees support close to 300,000 users across 5,000 offices nationwide and now in Canada as well. Included in that is 8 out of the 15 largest Real Estate Brokerages in the nation. But, despite being happy with what we’ve achieved we know that as industry leaders in our space there’s a lot of work left to be done. All of the growth and success that has happened is a result of us obsessing over building cutting edge software that makes the Real Estate world a better place. We know this only happens by hiring people who don’t just come up with out of the box ideas but hiring people who actually see those ideas through and bring them to life. As we’ve grown, we’ve been fortunate enough to hire plenty of people who possess that quality and realize it’s equally important to hire people who can pair that skill with empathy, collaboration, and a keen sense of urgency. If you’re looking to join a company where you can have real impact and surround yourself with an incredible team of people then look no further.                                                                                                                                                                                                                  SKYSLOPE’S CORE VALUES 💪🏻 These are the principles that helped us get to where we are and they are the principles that will guide us to where we want to go in the future. You can apply them to your professional life, your personal life, to any business and any situation. In no specific hierarchy, our core values are: Awareness | Execution | Obsession | Ownership | Humility | Radical Candor | Urgency | Greatness | Inches I Fun Learn more about our core values from our CEO, Tyler Smith here!                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Purpose: A scrum master is passionate about technology and agile practices.  You will lead the agile/scrum practice, leading sprint teams into successful completion of sprints.
