Job Description

At Feeld, we are creating a world where everyone is more intimately connected to each other and themselves. We are building an inclusive, human-centred product and are looking for a Scrum Master to become part our remote team and our mission to elevate the human experience of sexuality and relationships.

You will be responsible for guiding the delivery of work from product and engineering teams, ensuring requirements are met and issues are surfaced early. You will lead sprint ceremonies and meetings acting as the host to facilitate good communication between teams and ensure actions are followed-up on. And, you'll be responsible for delivering reports and updates to key stakeholders.

To be right for this role, you should have an ability to engage and lead conversation, knowing how to direct and inspire individuals to achieve a desired outcome. You should be able to build knowledge of technical systems, to learn the "lingo" of an engineering team and understand the meanings/relationships of these conversations. And, you should consider yourself a naturally organised and proactive person with skills to record, document and retrieve information with ease.

What you will do:
  • Facilitate sprint ceremonies, driving team collaboration and engagement with a positive energy
  • Guard and shield the engineering teams by doing the "behind the scenes" work, setting the team up for success by translating ambiguity into clarity
  • Ensure all items meet a "definition of ready" and hold the team to a high-standard way of working-communicating the impact of doing or not doing something
  • Act as the communication glue between multiple engineering teams and wider business functions, to ensure all stakeholders are informed and aligned on key activities
  • Build processes that work for us by adapting Scrum practices to fit the unique needs to the team and business constraints-avoid a purist approach
  • Report project status updates that effectively communicates progress, risks, and milestones
  • Foster a culture of continuous improvement, steering people away from distractions and towards priorities
About you:
  • You have 5+ years of experience as a Scrum Master
  • You feel at home in Jira, and can use it efficiently
  • You have worked with growing engineering teams of 20+ individuals
  • You are have managed teams across multiple streams of work
  • You can build relationships, and influence without authority - understanding different personality types
Bonus points:
  • You are a magician in Notion, Figma and Miro
  • You have experience with release management
  • You like to explore new systems and ways to automate task in place of manual inputs
  • You have worked in a team across time-zones and are efficient at handovers
About us:

Feeld is an independent, experimental and fully remote organisation reshaping the dialogue on dating and sexuality. The company was founded in 2014 and has evolved since to become the open, distributed structure it is now. We have a naturally agile and fluid culture. The whole team is fully remote, which means you work where and when helps you perform at your best. We regard autonomy highly and treat our organisation as a product - we iterate, improve and test things internally to see what works best for everyone.

Our culture:

We believe in creating a safe work environment through humanity, fluidity, safety, transparency and progressiveness. When hiring, we look for culture add rather than culture fit.

Because we are a fully remote team, it's especially important that we create an environment where our colleagues feel included and connected as humans.

Diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging at Feeld:

Feeld promotes open-mindedness, inclusion, diversity and kindness, both in the world and among our own workforce.

We encourage and welcome applications from people with a history of marginalisation, whether because of race, gender expression or identity, sexual orientation, neurodivergence, national origin, disability (seen or unseen) or any confluence of intersectional identities.

Our goal is a barrier-free application process and working environment. If you require further details or assistance or have any questions about this process, please let us know at .

Compensation and perks:

We are conscious of how our work and decisions impact other humans and the environment. We design our product and organisation with consideration for the wellbeing of our members and colleagues. Feeld's way of working is designed to proactively prevent burnout and an "always on" culture. We believe in technology and working environments that enable people to live a meaningful, fulfilled life.

Therefore, we offer our staff:

  • Flexible working hours
  • Unlimited paid time off
  • A fully remote working situation
  • GBP £3k equipment and home office budget
  • Learning & development budget
  • On demand therapy sessions and mental health support via Spill
  • In-person meet ups

Our compensation system is one of the ways we work to uphold equity and inclusion at Feeld. Just as we strive to enable honest expression on our platform, we strive for openness of information within the organization. Internally, we keep decision-making transparent to keep each other accountable and make sure all voices are heard.

That is why we offer:

  • A compensation system that is transparent, honest, and equitable.
  • At Feeld we believe all humans deserve to make a competitive wage. That's why we offer a Baseline Freedom Salary of £60,000 GBP per year.

Estimated compensation for this role:

  • The total cash compensation for this role is dependent on Level and Step, as well as geographic location, but we estimate that the competitive market compensation for this role is between £60,000 - £85,000 GBP based on the requirements listed in this job description.
Our interview process:
  • Your first conversation with Feeld will be a screening call with our recruiter, where you'll be able to ask - and receive answers - regarding any general questions you have and to confirm the role is a fit for what you're seeking.
  • Your second conversation will connect you directly with the hiring manager for the role you're applying to. Here, you'll have a chance to ask more questions about the work you'll be doing. This conversation will also focus on your past work experiences.
  • The next step for most of our roles is a candidate challenge. This is an evaluation of the skills relevant to be successful in this role and generally takes about an hour to complete.
  • Your third conversation allows you the opportunity to meet the team members you might be working with on a daily basis. Here, you'll be able to ask questions about team processes, workflow, and the employee experience at Feeld.
  • We generally make an offer within 2 weeks of our final call, and offer a flexible start date that can begin as early as the next Monday after you sign our offer documentation.
  • Of note: all of our interviews are conducted remotely, and our interviewers will work with you to find an agreeable interview time based on mutual availability.

We understand we're asking you to invest your time and best efforts in our process, and are appreciative of getting the chance to better know who you are as a person and candidate. In return, we're committed to offering transparent communication and prompt feedback as you navigate this application with us.
