Where I work scrum masters are supposed to “help teams improve”. That’s measured, in one way, by looking at the current rate of performance of a team and projecting it out. Then a scrum master needs to improve the team’s performance by some amount that exceeds the cost of having them there.

Some examples, number of on time deployments, number of story points, number of bugs... I’m not saying this is perfect, but that’s how some people are measuring.

So if a PE is responsible for improving juniors, I suppose a PE can be judged on the size and complexity of projects their juniors are able to take on. Maybe the time to promotion and number of juniors getting promoted?
