You will be a key player in bridging the gap between development and operations, ensuring seamless and efficient deployments.

Release Orchestration & Governance

• Drive end-to-end release planning, change control, risk assessment, and deployment window management.

• Leverage Python and SQL to extract and analyze deployment metrics.
• Build and maintain trend analysis to identify patterns and areas for improvement.
• Transform release management from a reactive process into a proactive, continuous improvement engine.

Infrastructure & Environment Awareness

• Apply a working knowledge of Unix/Linux operations and ECS/OpenShift environments.
• Interpret deployment logs and server health metrics to make confident go/no-go decisions during deployment windows.
• Troubleshoot and resolve deployment-related issues under pressure.

Stakeholder Communication & Collaboration

• Translate complex technical information into clear and concise executive-level updates.
• Lead structured and effective release calls with global, distributed teams.
• Ensure accountability through detailed minutes of meetings (MoMs), action item tracking, and proactive escalation of issues.

CI/CD & DevOps Fluency

• Navigate and manage CI/CD pipelines using Harness/Lightspeed.
• Champion the adoption of automation in the release process, including ROD, parallel deployments, and automated post-deployment checks.
• Act as a bridge between development and operations teams, fostering a collaborative DevOps culture.

AI-Augmented Release Operations

• Apply GenAI tooling (e.g., Stylus, Copilot) to accelerate the creation of release documentation and runbooks.
• Utilize AI to surface insights into deployment risks and to drive intelligent test data management.
• Embed AI as a force multiplier across the entire release lifecycle to enhance efficiency and quality.

Qualifications

Required

• Proven 10+ Year experience in a Release Engineering, DevOps, or similar role.
• Strong understanding of release orchestration, governance, and change control processes.
• Proficiency with Jira and Confluence.
• Basic scripting and data analysis skills using Python and SQL.

• Experience with CI/CD tools such as Harness or Lightspeed.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to engage with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Preferred
