Show facilitation rather than task assignment
The Scrum Guide describes self-managing teams. This example therefore says the candidate facilitated discussion and supported agreed experiments. It does not describe the Scrum Master assigning everyone’s tasks or deciding the Sprint Backlog.
Explain the flow measure
The cycle-time example measures the median from work started to done for comparable service requests. It names the period and team experiment. Do not compare story points across teams or turn velocity into an individual performance score.
Describe an impediment and a response
The unstable test environment is concrete: the candidate brought the dependency owners together and tracked an agreed fix. Include what blocked the team, who could change it and how you helped the decision happen.
Keep the career change visible
The engineering role and first Scrum Master role have separate dates. This avoids counting every year in technology as Scrum Master experience. List certifications accurately, but use delivery examples to show how you applied the learning.
