A Scrum Master is responsible for implementing and adhering to the Scrum methodology within a team. He or she ensures that the team works efficiently and removes obstacles that could hinder progress. The Scrum Master acts as a facilitator for the team members and helps to improve communication and promote collaboration. Training team members in Scrum practices is also one of the tasks of a Scrum Master.
A degree in computer science, business administration or a related field is usually required to become a Scrum Master. Many Scrum Masters have also obtained certifications such as Certified Scrum Master (CSM) or Professional Scrum Master (PSM) to deepen their knowledge and skills. Practical experience in agile projects is also an advantage.
As a Scrum Master, you have the opportunity to progress within a company, for example to a position as an Agile Coach or Project Manager. With increasing experience, Scrum Masters can also be promoted to senior positions or move into other areas of agile management. In times of digitalization and agile methods, the demand for experienced Scrum Masters is constantly increasing.
