Roles
Scrum defines the following roles.
Product Owner
The Product Owner talks to stakeholders and takes care of defining the output of the team. Based on the input of the Product Owner, a roadmap is defined, and the backlog is filled with tickets. The Product Owner defines the priority of the tickets and, in consultation with the team, marks tickets as ready for work each sprint.
Scrum Master
The Scrum Master takes care of monitoring the team process and making sure things run smoothly. The scrum events like the daily, review, retrospective, and planning are initiated by the Scrum Master. On the basis of need, additional events can be initiated.
Developer
Developers take care of refining tickets and preparing them for work. Tickets selected as 'ready for work' are free to work on by any developer. Developers also monitor the communication channels for chatter and if necessary prepare tickets.
