The Release group plays a critical role in Torc’s product engineering and release lifecycle. The Release group is responsible for ensuring safe and successful product delivery by working collaboratively across engineering divisions to sponsor and drive the release ecosystem. We will measure and monitor progress for on-time release delivery. We will deliver a structured release process and skillsets to achieve product acceptance, drive performance indicators, and enable the efficient delivery of product releases.
What you’ll do:
The Manager of Release Management is responsible for people leadership of a team of release managers that lead the release lifecycle for engineering and product releases. This includes performing release coordination, dynamic decision-making during release execution, monitoring and evaluating deliverables into release along with configuration management. The release management team schedules regular agile-style release trains, oversees the impact analysis process, communicates required test activities, performs Git tagging and branching procedures, and records release artifacts.
The people leader of Release management will drive strategic initiatives, mitigate risks, perform resource planning and performance management for direct reports.
