Scrum Master

Build the Future with AspenView Technology Partners

At AspenView, we are passionate about transforming the way organizations approach technology. We specialize in creating high-performing, nearshore IT teams to help North American clients innovate faster and more efficiently.

As we continue to grow, we’re looking for exceptional people to join our team and help drive impactful change across industries.

About the Role

AspenView is hiring a Scrum Master to run delivery on core banking conversions for U.S. community and regional banks and credit unions. You will join the conversion team of a U.S. advisory firm that manages these projects on behalf of financial institutions. A core conversion moves every account, loan, card, and transaction history onto a new core platform and re-points everything that depends on it, from debit cards to online banking. The core vendor sets the mock and go-live dates; your job is to get the institution’s side ready for each one, and to say so early when it isn’t.

You will work one institution’s conversion at a time, typically a year or more from kickoff to go-live, alongside a QA specialist, business analysts, and the core vendor’s project manager. Core conversions don’t run on pure Scrum: vendor dates don’t move for a sprint review, so you will run agile inside a fixed plan and protect the team from the churn around it. You own the team’s cadence, the RAID log, and the readiness picture, while scope and the go/no-go call sit with the institution’s steering committee and the client’s engagement lead.

This is a full-time, dedicated nearshore role, working remotely from Colombia or elsewhere in Latin America during U.S. Eastern or Central business hours, and reporting to the client’s conversion engagement lead. Conversion weekends (Friday evening to Monday morning) and some mock runs fall outside normal hours and are scheduled months in advance. Access to institution systems is subject to the background and identity checks required by their vendor-management policies. The natural next step is conversion project manager, then leading conversions across several institutions at once.

What You Will Do

Sprint and Backlog Management

• Own the sprint cadence for one or more conversion workstreams (data mapping, interface remediation, testing, and digital banking re-integration) in Jira and Confluence or Azure DevOps.
• Translate the core vendor’s conversion schedule (mock conversions, parallel runs, cutover weekend) into backlogs and sprint goals the team can realistically hit.
• Flag mock dates at risk weeks before they arrive.
