## Description

Leidos is seeking a TS/SCI-cleared Production Product Owner/Scrum Master to join a high-energy team responsible for production-environment maintenance, operational sustainment, and data-quality improvement in support of the DIA-NDOC (National Digital Exploitation and OSINT Center) DOMEX Technology Platform (DTP).

This role is part of a 10-year program supporting the DOMEX Data Discovery Platform (D3P) Modernization effort, where you’ll contribute to mission-critical capabilities alongside a collaborative, innovative, and growth-oriented team.

While the majority of work is performed on-site at our customer location in Bethesda, MD, we offer a flexible schedule and occasional opportunities for remote work.

**Product Owner Responsibilities:**

- Own, maintain, and prioritize the Production Team backlog for production-environment sustainment, data-quality improvement, operational enhancements, and technical debt.

- Translate operational needs, incidents, stakeholder requests, and data-quality findings into clear epics, user stories, acceptance criteria, and sprint-ready work.

- Balance urgent production-support requirements with planned maintenance, preventive actions, security remediation, and long-term reliability improvements.

- Facilitate Production Team Agile ceremonies, including backlog refinement, sprint planning, daily scrums, sprint reviews, and retrospectives.

- Track production incidents, recurring defects, and root-cause corrective actions to ensure they are prioritized, assigned, and completed.

- Coordinate data-quality remediation activities, including issue intake, validation criteria, ownership, prioritization, status reporting, and closure verification.

- Identify and manage dependencies among the Production Team, application-development teams, Platform Team, CI/CD Team, infrastructure/OS team, database team, cybersecurity personnel, and data owners.

- Help remove impediments affecting Production, Platform, and CI/CD teams, escalating cross-team dependencies, decisions, resource constraints, and operational risks when necessary.

**Scrum Master Responsibilities:**

- Lead and facilitate SAFe ceremonies to include Sprint Planning and Sprint Reviews to include demos, Sprint Retrospective, and PI Planning.

- Coach teams on Agile and Scrum principles with the goal of continuous improvement.

**Requirements:**

- BS in Engineering, Computer Science, Systems Engineering, or related field and 12 or more years of prior relevant experience or Masters with 10 or more years of prior relevant experience.

- Active TS/SCI clearance and ability to obtain/maintain a TS/SCI with CI Polygraph.

- Experience managing and prioritizing a backlog that includes a mix of production incidents and operational defects, preventive maintenance and technical debt, environment changes and release-support activities, data-quality remediation and validation, monitoring, and vulnerability remediation.

- Experience with production operations and support processes, including incident management, problem management, root-cause analysis, change management, release coordination, service restoration, and post-incident corrective actions.

- Familiarity with data-quality management concepts, including data validation, completeness, accuracy, timeliness, consistency, reconciliation, defect tracking, and remediation workflows.

- Ability to translate operational needs into clear epics, features, user stories, acceptance criteria, priorities, and definitions of done.

- Experience facilitating Agile ceremonies, including backlog refinement, sprint planning, daily scrums, sprint reviews, retrospectives, and cross-team dependency discussions.

- Ability to coordinate effectively with developers, production support personnel, the Platform Team, the CI/CD Team, infrastructure teams, cybersecurity personnel, data owners, and mission stakeholders.

- Strong facilitation, prioritization, stakeholder management, written communication, and organizational skills.

**Preferred Qualifications:**

- Experience serving as a Scrum Master for multiple technical teams or a team-of-teams delivery structure.

- Familiarity with Kubernetes, Elastic, Redis, CI/CD tooling, GitOps, infrastructure automation, or cloud-native application operations.

- Experience with observability tools and practices, including dashboards, metrics, logs, alerting, service-level indicators, and service-level objectives.

- Experience with data-governance, data-quality, master-data, ETL/ELT, data reconciliation, or data lineage activities.
