Felix Maschek Agile Coach & Senior Scrum Master

My expertise and experience
If you are looking for a partner who does not just explain Agility, but implements it effectively together with your team, you are in the right place.
I combine technical excellence in software engineering with effective agile coaching. For me, agility is not a goal in itself or a set of methods, but the result of solid engineering, clear collaboration, and measurable impact.
With over 30 years of experience as a software engineer and engineering manager — from code to the C-suite — and more than 15 years in roles as an Agile Coach and Senior Scrum Master, I bring deep engineering expertise to transformation initiatives. My strength lies in complex product and system landscapes, where architecture, product development, and leadership must work together.
I support organizations where agile initiatives often stall: due to a lack of technical substance, missing self-organization, or ritualized agile practices. My focus is on technical quality, true team ownership, and sustainable collaboration — not on rigid frameworks or empty rituals.
I combine agile methods with technical expertise and a systemic view of collaboration.
My focus is on strengthening teams, simplifying processes, and creating structures that enable sustainable delivery.

My education and certifications
"Felix was open, pragmatic, supportive, and very well structured. He initially participated quietly in meetings in and around the project and reviewed all project documentation and repositories to gain a thorough understanding of workflows and collaboration. Through one-on-one conversations with me as Product Manager and Product Owner, the project manager, and several team members, he then developed a detailed picture of the situation. Based on this, he provided focused, pragmatic recommendations while also clearly highlighting the positive aspects he had observed. Felix has the gift of making everyone feel seen and understood in their respective roles and of coaching individuals accordingly—resulting in a significant step forward for both the team as a whole and the project overall."
"I had the pleasure of working with Felix Maschek as a Scrum Master and Agile Coach in two of our interdisciplinary project teams. Felix’s calm and highly confident manner earned him strong recognition within our organization as well as within his teams, and enabled him to successfully facilitate conflict resolution. We could always rely on Felix to proactively remove impediments, conduct constructive and goal-oriented retrospectives, and prepare and facilitate workshops in a professional manner. I was particularly impressed by his ability to step in immediately as an interim Product Owner when one of our Product Owners was unavailable, and to successfully coach our new hire into the role."
"Mr. Maschek possesses comprehensive professional expertise and knowledge and mastered his area of responsibility with excellence. Thanks to his strong analytical skills, he was able to grasp even complex relationships, identify what was essential, and quickly develop effective solutions to more challenging tasks."

Process & DevOps improvement
Analysis and optimization of end-to-end software development processes—from requirements through development and testing to operations. Review and improvement of CI/CD pipelines, toolchains, and quality mechanisms.
Technical advisory within agile environments
Consulting at the intersection of technology and organization: architectural and process advisory, support in technical decision-making, and the establishment of Definitions of Done, quality criteria, and technical standards.
Interim leadership & building engineering structures
Taking on roles such as Head of Software Engineering, Technical Product Owner, or “interim Head of Engineering” to realign teams, establish structures, and create a solid foundation for further growth.
I would be happy to discuss in an initial, non-binding conversation how agile ways of working can be used effectively in your organization.
