This is a senior, enterprise-style Scrum Master contract role. They want somebody who can run clean delivery, keep interdependent teams aligned, and has real experience driving Agile transformation, not just facilitating standups.
About Axiom Software Solutions Limited
Axiom Software Solutions Limited provides contract and staffing support for enterprise technology teams across infrastructure, cloud, and software delivery.
Schedule
- Remote (U.S.)
- Contract role
- Duration not listed (confirm in screening)
What You’ll Do
- Partner closely with the customer project POCs and a cross-functional project team
- Own end-to-end delivery: drive milestones, timelines, and objectives to completion
- Keep the project aligned with interdependent projects, programs, and stakeholders
- Maintain strong communication across teams and leaders to prevent surprises
- Facilitate Agile ceremonies and remove blockers to keep delivery moving
- Drive Agile process improvements and support transformation efforts at an org level
- Help teams work together effectively, stay accountable, and hit commitments
What You Need
- 10+ years as a Scrum Master in an Agile environment
- At least 3 years in a senior or enterprise-level Scrum Master role
- Proven experience leading Agile transformations and org-level process improvements
- Experience with SAFe or other enterprise Agile methodologies
- Certifications preferred: CSM, SAFe Scrum Master (SSM), or equivalent
- Experience working with cross-functional teams in enterprise or fast-paced environments (preferred)
- Familiarity with Agile beyond Scrum (Kanban, Lean, XP, etc.) (preferred)
Benefits
- Not listed (contract terms typically handled by the staffing firm/client)
Backbone note: “end-to-end delivery” + “aligned with inter-dependent projects” is code for “you’re basically a delivery lead, but we’re calling it Scrum Master.” If you apply, make sure your resume and answers show program-level coordination, dependency tracking, and stakeholder management, not just ceremony facilitation.
Happy Hunting,

If you like being the calm one when systems get loud, this role is for you. It’s Kubernetes-heavy, automation-forward, and expects real incident chops plus solid DB performance instincts.

Tiny backbone note: “(Ex – Fidelity Exp)” reads like they’re hunting for someone who’s worked at Fidelity specifically, or at least in similar large enterprise environments. If you don’t have that, you’ll want to position your experience as “Fidelity-adjacent”: regulated, high-availability, change-controlled, audited environments.

If you’re a mainframe-and-hardware person who can keep production steady, fix what breaks fast, and speak fluent z/OS, this one’s built for you. It’s heavy on IBM Z infrastructure, incident response, and data center hardware ops.
About Axiom Software Solutions Limited
Axiom Software Solutions Limited provides contract and staffing support for enterprise technology teams across infrastructure, cloud, and software delivery.
Schedule
- Remote (U.S.)
- Schedule details not listed (confirm shift/on-call expectations during screening)
What You’ll Do
- Install and maintain IBM mainframe data center hardware and supporting configuration data (HCD)
- Support Mainframe Disaster Recovery readiness and execution
- Monitor production and development environments to ensure hardware performance and stability
- Perform real-time break/fix for hardware failures and production-impacting issues
- Triage, diagnose, and resolve incidents end-to-end, documenting actions clearly
- Execute hardware patch management installations and microcode upgrades
- Use system commands to support and maintain the hardware infrastructure environment
- Work within incident and change management processes (ServiceNow), and submit IBM cases as needed
- Collaborate across teams using tools like ServiceNow CMDB and Jira
What You Need
- Hands-on experience with IBM Z Series hardware and z/OS (z/VM and zLinux a plus)
- Strong mainframe hardware infrastructure experience, ideally with:
- z15 / z16, HMC
- DS8000, TS7700, TS4500, FlashSystems
- Proven ability to monitor environments and respond fast to production hardware incidents
- Experience with incident/change management tools (ServiceNow) and IBM case submission processes
- Knowledge of patch management and microcode upgrade implementation
- Comfortable with system commands and operational troubleshooting workflows
- Familiarity with mainframe ecosystem components listed (DB2, IMS DB, JCL; COBOL/PL/I/Assembler exposure noted)
- Bonus: scripting with Linux Bash, Python, and REST APIs
Benefits
- Not listed (contract details typically confirmed during recruiter screen)
This role is mainframe-hardware heavy. If your background is more “app dev on COBOL” than “z16/HMC/DS8000 break-fix,” it could be a mismatch. If you want, paste your resume bullets and I’ll tell you straight whether you’re a fit and how to position it.

This is a performance rescue mission: two senior SQL devs brought in to tune stored procs, speed up reporting, and stabilize a CRM sync without pulling the internal DBA off their core work.
About Axiom Software Solutions Limited
Axiom Software Solutions Limited provides contract talent and delivery support for enterprise tech teams, including database and cloud operations needs.
Schedule
- Remote (Oregon listed)
- Start: immediate
- Work cadence: parallel workstreams + twice-weekly status updates
- Deployment flow: Dev → QA → UAT → Prod
What You’ll Do
- Optimize the highest priority stored procedures based on runtime and execution frequency (Phase 1 priority)
- Validate improvements in QA/UAT before production rollout
- Optimize high-impact reporting views after stored procedures are addressed
- Improve performance and reliability of the CRM sync process between transactional databases and the CRM system
- Produce documented before/after performance metrics for every change
- Submit optimizations for review by the Software Development Manager and Team Lead
- Document all changes and store them in GitHub/Azure DevOps repositories
- Provide recommendations for next steps after key optimizations land
What You Need
- Senior-level SQL Server development experience with heavy focus on performance tuning and query optimization
- Experience working in enterprise-scale SQL Server environments hosted on AWS
- Comfortable operating inside structured review + deployment processes (Dev/QA/UAT/Prod)
- Strong documentation discipline (metrics, change notes, recommendations)
- Ability to collaborate closely with internal leads while working independently (DBA is intentionally not in the day-to-day)
Benefits
- Not listed (contract role; confirm details during screening)
One real talk note: they’re explicitly asking for “two senior-level, on-shore” devs working in parallel. If you’re solo, you can still apply, but your pitch has to address how you’d cover parallel throughput (partner you work with, or how you’d compress delivery with ruthless prioritization).
