About Fly Akeed:

Fly Akeed is an online platform that helps people book flights and hotels easily. We started in 2017 and are based in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Our travel solution simplifies the process of planning and handling work-related travel.

• Current funding stage:
  Series A
• Fly Akeed is supported by PIF subsidiary Sanabil Investments, Elm, Artal Capital, and Alrajhi Partners.

At Fly Akeed, we leverage technology to transform corporate travel management. Our Operations team plays a critical role in ensuring seamless travel booking, fulfillment, and customer satisfaction by managing reservations, travel requests, and operational processes through our proprietary platform. We’re looking for an enthusiastic, early-career Junior Scrum Master to support the agile delivery of one of our software product squads. You’ll facilitate the day-to-day rhythm of the team, help keep work flowing, and clear the smaller obstacles that get in the way — all while learning from and being mentored by our Senior Scrum Master.

This is a great opportunity for someone with foundational agile knowledge who wants to grow quickly into a full Scrum Master role.

• Facilitate core Scrum ceremonies (daily stand-ups, sprint planning, backlog refinement, reviews, and retrospectives) for your squad.
• Help the team stay focused, organized, and on track toward sprint goals.
• Identify and help remove day-to-day impediments, escalating larger blockers appropriately.
• Keep agile tooling (e.g. Jira) up to date — maintaining boards, sprint data, and reporting.
• Support the Product Owner with backlog upkeep and sprint preparation.
• Help produce delivery metrics and simple progress reports for the team and stakeholders.
• Encourage healthy team collaboration, communication, and continuous improvement.
• Actively build your agile knowledge and grow toward independently running a team.

• 0–2 years of experience in an agile team as a Scrum Master.
• A solid foundational understanding of Scrum and agile principles.
• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.
• Good communication and interpersonal skills, with a collaborative, service-minded attitude.
• Eagerness to learn, take feedback, and grow quickly.
• Comfort working in a fast-paced software product environment.

• Fluent English.

Certifications:

A Scrum Master certification (CSM or PSM) is a plus. If you don’t hold one yet, we’ll expect you to pursue it within your first year.

Nice to Have:

• Exposure to tools such as Jira, Trello, or Azure Dev Ops.
• A technical or product background, or a genuine interest in software delivery.
• Experience in travel, fintech, or startup environments.
