وصف الوظيفة

Role Overview

  • Lead release readiness reviews, Go/No-Go meetings, and post-mortems.
  • Manage release documentation, risk logs, sign-offs, and reporting for internal and regulatory stakeholders.
  • Work with DevOps and Infrastructure to ensure CI/CD pipelines are aligned with release objectives.
  • Champion automated release management tools and practices, aligning with security and compliance requirements.
  • Ensure clear communication of release scope, timelines, dependencies, and change impacts across all stakeholders.
  • Track release metrics and KPIs to continuously improve cycle time and deployment success rates.
