Is the Scrum Master role hybrid or on-site?

This role is hybrid. Candidates work on-site at the client's Jersey City, NJ office two to three days per week, with the remaining days remote. Exact office days are set by the hiring manager and can shift during onboarding and major project milestones. The recruiter will confirm the current cadence before you interview.

Is this a permanent role?

Yes — this is a full time direct-hire position with the client. On offer acceptance, you onboard directly onto the client's payroll and benefits. ApTask's role is placement only; the recruiter stays in touch for the first 90 days as a check-in, but your day-to-day relationship is with the client's hiring manager.

What is the compensation range for this role?

The advertised range for this Scrum Master role is $110,000–$115,000 per year. Where you land within the band depends on validated experience, the specific stack calibration match, and — for contract engagements — the bill-rate the client has locked in for this requisition. The recruiter will discuss the exact number during your calibration call.

How quickly does the interview process move?

If your profile is a fit for this role, you can expect the recruiter's first call within one business day. From there, interview cadence depends on the client's hiring-manager and panel availability. Total time from submission to signed offer varies by client — pre-verified profiles and calibrated submissions cut the noise, but the pace of interviews is driven by the client, not us.

What technical skills does the Scrum Master role require?

The client is targeting depth in Scrum Master, Scrum. Adjacent experience is welcome — we routinely place candidates whose exact stack match is 60-70% when the underlying pattern (distributed systems, regulated-data handling, or comparable) is strong. Bring the full stack breadth to your calibration call; the recruiter will map it onto the client's evaluation scorecard.

About operations at ApTask

What this vertical looks like inside ApTask.

Operations roles at ApTask cover program management, PMO, business analysis, transformation, and change-management positions across enterprise clients. We place operators who translate strategy into delivery — PMPs, Scrum Masters, agile coaches, Six Sigma black belts, and change-management practitioners certified in Prosci or the client's preferred framework. Candidates are validated against the specific enterprise tooling the client runs (ServiceNow, Jira Portfolio, Clarity, Planview) and their prior track record in comparable-scale programs, not generic delivery experience.

How it works

What happens after you apply.

1. Verified profile
Submit your résumé and complete the ApTask identity + skills verification. We check right-to-work, background, and technical calibration once — never resell or re-verify — so future roles surface faster.
2. Recruiter calibration call
Within one business day, the recruiter who owns this requisition reviews your profile against the client's specific stack, arrangement, and start-date requirements. You'll hear back either way — no ghosting.
3. Client interview
If your profile is a fit, we present you to the hiring team. Most clients run 2-3 interview stages: hiring-manager screen, technical panel, and final. We prep you with the exact scorecard criteria before each round.
4. Offer + onboarding
On acceptance, you onboard W-2 with ApTask (contract) or direct-hire with the client (per role type). Benefits, payroll, and timesheets run through us. Your recruiter stays your point of contact for the length of the engagement.
