The Role
Few general roles let you touch Goal Setting this directly, but the Scrum Master job at StartupForge in Chattanooga is one of them. The deal favors the seasoned — 4 years earns $56,000 - $80,000, a contract arrangement, and a general charter you'll actually own.
Key Responsibilities
- Own the boring middle of a project, not just the kickoff
- Show up for the unglamorous general maintenance nobody volunteers for
- Hand off Accountability work clean enough that nobody has to ask twice
- Keep StartupForge's Chattanooga, TN site running while improvements ship underneath
- Trade quick wins for remote-native fixes when the math favors patience
- Turn 5 of pattern recognition into faster general calls
What You'll Bring
- Willingness to commute to Chattanooga, TN or work flexibly as needed
- Proven Active Listening results, ideally seasoned in Chattanooga, TN
- Strong rapport-building skills and a genuinely positive presence
- Comfort being measured against a clear mid-level bar
- Solid understanding of general best practices and industry standards
- Familiarity with the rhythms of a documentation-first contract team
- 4 years that taught you which corners can be cut
