Original job description

We are looking for an experienced Release Manager with strong exposure to software development environments and end-to-end release management. The ideal candidate will own the release lifecycle, coordinating development, QA, DevOps, infrastructure, and product teams to ensure smooth, reliable, and timely software releases.

The candidate should have a strong understanding of SDLC, CI/CD pipelines, source code management, build and deployment processes, and production release governance. We are particularly interested in professionals who understand development-side release challenges and can engage directly with engineering teams.

An important aspect of this role is embracing AI-powered engineering practices and identifying opportunities to use AI tools to improve release planning, automation, documentation, testing, deployment readiness, and overall engineering productivity.

Key Responsibilities

Release Planning & Management

Own and manage the end-to-end software release lifecycle across development, QA, staging, and production environments.
Develop and maintain release calendars, release schedules, deployment plans, and release roadmaps.
Coordinate release activities across multiple development teams and applications.
Manage release scope, timelines, dependencies, risks, and delivery commitments.
Establish release readiness criteria and ensure all required approvals are secured before deployment.
Coordinate code freezes, release branches, build validation, UAT, and production rollout activities.

Development & Engineering Coordination

Work closely with software developers, technical leads, architects, QA engineers, and DevOps teams.
Understand development workflows, code integration, branching strategies, version control, and build processes.
Coordinate feature releases, bug fixes, enhancements, patches, and emergency releases.
Identify technical dependencies and resolve release blockers in collaboration with engineering teams.
Ensure code changes are properly reviewed, tested, integrated, and approved before production deployment.
Drive alignment between development and operations teams to improve release efficiency.

Release Governance & Risk Management

Establish release management policies, processes, checklists, and governance standards.
Conduct release readiness reviews and Go/No-Go meetings.
Manage change approvals, release documentation, implementation plans, and audit trails.
Identify and mitigate risks related to production deployments, system dependencies, and application stability.
Coordinate incident management and hotfix releases when production issues arise.
Conduct post-release reviews and drive continuous improvement initiatives.
Track release KPIs such as deployment frequency, release success rate, change failure rate, and rollback frequency.

AI Adoption & Process Automation

Explore and adopt AI-powered tools to improve release management and engineering workflows.
Leverage AI assistants such as GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude, or similar tools where appropriate.
Identify opportunities to automate release documentation, deployment checklists, test case generation, release notes, and status reporting.
Collaborate with engineering and DevOps teams to introduce AI-enabled automation into CI/CD and release processes.
Evaluate AI-driven solutions that can improve release quality, reduce manual effort, and accelerate delivery.
Promote responsible AI usage, considering security, data privacy, code quality, and governance.

Required Qualifications & Experience

7–12 years of experience in Release Management, Software Delivery, DevOps coordination, or Engineering Operations.
Strong experience managing end-to-end software releases in a development environment.
Good understanding of SDLC, Agile/Scrum methodologies, and software development workflows.
Hands-on exposure to CI/CD tools such as Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD, or Azure DevOps.
Strong understanding of Git, branching strategies, code merges, versioning, builds, and deployment workflows.
Experience coordinating releases across Development, QA, DevOps, and Infrastructure teams.
Understanding of cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, or GCP.
Experience with production deployment planning, rollback strategies, hotfixes, and release validation.
Strong risk management, stakeholder communication, and problem-solving skills.
Demonstrated willingness to adopt AI-powered tools and automation to improve release processes.
