We at Volocopter are pioneers in the development of electrical air taxis that take off and land vertically (eVTOLs). We bring Urban Air Mobility to life, by establishing air taxis in addition to current transportation options in megacities globally. Our aim is to offer affordable on-demand air taxi services and save people time by flying them safely to their destination. In 2011 we performed the first-ever piloted flight of a purely electrical multicopter and have since showcased numerous public flights with our full-scale Volocopter (www.volocopter.com).

Your mission during this flight:

As Scrum Master/ Project Controller VoloIQ at Volocopter you will be part of the CDO Resort and responsible for securing progress of the VoloIQ development. Together with the VoloIQ product owner you will manage the project in an agile framework and ensure the success in terms of time, budget and quality. As a continuously growing company, we are working on the transition to an agile work environment, which includes the implementation of the SAFe framework.

As a Scrum Master you will assist in this development, as well as the later continuous improvement. You will ensure the user stories and epics defined by the product owner are coherent and clear to the team and follow the SAFe framework and Volocopter rules. You will work very closely with both the product owner and the team to ensure the backlog is properly organized and clear. Another major task will be to clear impediments and help to resolve blockages and keep disturbances away from the team. With personal and team coaching sessions, you will ensure effort estimations are normalized in the team, and continuous progress towards better estimation is made. You will also facilitate Scrum events like retrospective meetings and daily stand-ups, as well as planning and refinements. Additionally, you will ensure agile foundations and techniques are followed in the teams and exchange and communication with other teams is productive and complete. You will guide the teams towards higher scrum maturity and help to build a productive environment where team members can work most efficiently, take accountability, get things done and enjoy their work. You will contribute and drive the transition towards a fully agile company.
