Senior Scrum Master

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We need to parse the posting. Posting content: - Intro: "Peak Performers has partnered with a Texas State Agency to assist in their search for a hybrid Senior Scrum Master in Austin, Tx . In this contract position, you will lead and perform highly advanced analytical and coordination work in an agile environment relating to the. implementation of new agency solutions, including but not limited to GIS and Grants Management solutions." - Then "Major duties" list (some duplicated lines). We need to extract duties. - Then "What are we looking for?" list of requirements. - Then "Preferred" list. - Then "Exciting Opportunity Details Rate: $85.00/hour W2 Contract Worksite Location: Austin, Tx 78701 HybridContract through 8/31 with opportunity for extension" - Then "The Peak Performers difference" bullet list: medical health, dental & vision insurance at 60 days; 403(b) retirement plan; priority placement for chronic medical conditions/disabilities; weekly direct deposit; in business since 1994; thousands of job placements; offers contingent on background check; work authorization; equal opportunity employer; does not accept unsolicited resumes. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The equal opportunity statement is boilerplate; we should remove it. Also "Peak Performers does not accept unsolicited resumes..." is also boilerplate? Might be considered legal; we should remove. Also "All employment offers are contingent on the successful completion of a pre-employment criminal background check..." is legal boilerplate; remove. Also "Applicants for employment with Peak Performers must possess work authorization that does not require sponsorship for a visa now or in the future." is also legal; remove. We need to keep substantive info: role description, duties, requirements, qualifications, skills, benefits, pay, schedule. We need to decide sections: - About the role: maybe the intro paragraph describing role. - Responsibilities: the "Major duties" list. - Requirements: the "Minimum" list (mandatory). Could be combined with Qualifications? The instruction says use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can have Requirements and Qualifications separate if content distinct. But we can also combine if not enough. We'll try to separate: Requirements = mandatory years/experience/certifications. Qualifications = maybe preferred? Or we could treat "Preferred" as Qualifications. Skills could be specific tools: Jira, Confluence, Tableau, Microsoft Office, etc. But we have many overlapping. Better to follow typical: Responsibilities (duties), Requirements (mandatory), Qualifications (preferred), Skills (tools/technologies), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. Let's extract: About the role: The intro sentence(s). Could be: "Peak Performers has partnered with a Texas State Agency to assist in their search for a hybrid Senior Scrum Master in Austin, Tx. In this contract position, you will lead and perform highly advanced analytical and coordination work in an agile environment relating to the implementation of new agency solutions, including but not limited to GIS and Grants Management solutions." We'll keep that as

. Responsibilities: list of duties from "Major duties". Need to deduplicate duplicated lines. Original duties lines: - Participate and/or lead in project management, coordination, planning, and scheduling with the agency and Vendor staff in an Agile environment - Facilitate daily scrum, sprint planning, sprint demo and retrospective meetings. - Work with product owners, and internal customers, to maintain requirements backlog and conduct requirements elaborations - Mentor product owners, internal customers, project managers, developers and others in agile principles and leading industry practices. - Work with product owners, and internal customers, to maintain requirements backlog and conduct requirements elaborations (duplicate) - Contribute to development and sharing of agile standard methodologies - Assist in the evaluation of technical solutions and make recommendations based on sound reasoning. - Prepare charts, diagrams, and tables that depict the present and proposed systems We need to remove duplicate line (the second "Work with product owners..."). Thus responsibilities list items: - Participate and/or lead in project management, coordination, planning, and scheduling with the agency and Vendor staff in an Agile environment - Facilitate daily scrum, sprint planning, sprint demo and retrospective meetings. - Work with product owners, and internal customers, to maintain requirements backlog and conduct requirements elaborations - Mentor product owners, internal customers, project managers, developers and others in agile principles and leading industry practices. - Contribute to development and sharing of agile standard methodologies - Assist in the evaluation of technical solutions and make recommendations based on sound reasoning. - Prepare charts, diagrams, and tables that depict the present and proposed systems Now Requirements (minimum): List: - Minimum 6 years of knowledge of the Agile Development Methodology, including Scrum and/or Kanban, with demonstrated ability to inspect and adapt Agile practices to various situations. - 6 years of experience developing functional specifications and documenting functional designs for large projects. - 6 years of experience in project management, including Agile and other SDLC methodologies, plus knowledge of software development methodologies, testing, design, and implementations. - 5 years of experience as a Scrum Master on large projects, including Scrum ceremonies, backlog refinement, burndown charts, and reporting to management. - 5 years of experience with highly complex application security requirements. - 3 years of working knowledge and detailed understanding of SaaS, CRM, and Cloud Infrastructure. - 3 years of experience with Jira and Confluence. - Agile Scrum Master Certification. - Project Management Professional (PMP) Certification. We'll keep each as

. Qualifications (Preferred): - 3 years of experience with Texas procurement and contract guidelines (Texas Project Delivery Framework). - 3 years of experience with Jira Roadmaps. - 3 years of experience with Tableau. - 3 years of experience with Microsoft Office products, including Teams, Microsoft Project, Word, Visio, Excel, and PowerPoint. Skills: maybe we could extract specific tools: Jira, Confluence, Jira Roadmaps, Tableau, Microsoft Office (Teams, Project, Word, Visio, Excel, PowerPoint), SaaS, CRM, Cloud Infrastructure, Agile methodologies, etc. But we already have many in requirements/qualifications. Could create a Skills section for tools/technologies not covered elsewhere. However to avoid thin sections, maybe we combine Skills into Qualifications or Requirements. But instruction says prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. We could have Requirements (mandatory) and Qualifications (preferred) and then Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Skills could be omitted if covered. But we need to include Skills section only if posting has real specific content for it. The posting does mention specific tools: Jira, Confluence, Tableau, Microsoft Office products, etc. Those are in Preferred. Could treat them as Skills. However we already have Qualifications for preferred experience; we could rename Qualifications to Skills? But instruction says use headings like Skills. We could have Requirements (mandatory), Skills (tools/technologies), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. And maybe About the role and Responsibilities. Let's decide: - About the role: intro paragraph. - Responsibilities: duties list. - Requirements: mandatory years/experience/certifications. - Skills: specific tools/technologies (Jira, Confluence, Jira Roadmaps, Tableau, Microsoft Office suite, SaaS, CRM, Cloud Infrastructure, Agile/Scrum/Kanban, etc.) but some overlap with Requirements. Might be okay. - Benefits: list from "The Peak Performers difference": medical health, dental & vision insurance at 60 days; 403(b) retirement plan; priority placement for qualified applicants with chronic medical conditions and/or disabilities; weekly direct deposit; in business since 1994 and thousands of job placements (maybe not a benefit but we can include as company info). However "in business since 1994 and thousands of job placements" is more company background; could be considered benefit? Might be filler. We'll keep substantive benefits: medical/dental/vision insurance, 403(b) retirement plan, priority placement for chronic medical conditions/disabilities, weekly direct deposit. - Pay: Rate: $85.00/hour W2 Contract. - Schedule: Hybrid, contract through 8/31 with opportunity for extension. Also location: Austin, Tx 78701 Hybrid. So schedule: Hybrid (remote/onsite mix) and contract duration. We need to avoid duplication: location already mentioned; we can include location in About the role or Schedule. We'll put location in About the role maybe. Let's craft HTML. We'll output:
