About the job

The individual ensures all release deliverables are completed on time, dependencies are managed, approvals are obtained, deployment plans are executable, and stakeholders remain informed throughout the release lifecycle.

Working knowledge of Design Verification activities and the evidence needed to support release readiness.
Experience defining and reporting on Key Performance Indicators used for release and delivery.
Experience running Risks, Assumptions, Issues, and Dependencies tracking as a program discipline, not just contributing to it.

Hands-on experience with Arena or an equivalent Product Lifecycle Management / electronic Quality Management System.
Expert in the release and change artifact set used by the program: Engineering Change Order, Document Change Order, Design History File, Design Document, Product Change Order, release notes, and the specific Product Design and Development Plan, Design Change Impact Assessment, Product Engineering Integration Test, and Information Technology Change Request documents.
