• Strong operational rigor and organizational discipline, including the ability to maintain a reliable source of truth for release scope, timing, readiness, regional availability, and post-release status.
• A proven understanding of mobile application release management, including familiarity with app store guidelines, release readiness practices, and compliance considerations.
• Experience with agile development methodologies and tools, and the ability to coordinate and manage multiple releases simultaneously.
• A strong analytical approach, with the ability to synthesize rollout adoption, customer sentiment, Tech Support trends, app store feedback, and other post-release signals into actionable insights.
• Typically requires a Bachelor’s degree and a minimum of 8-12 years of related experience.
• At this level a graduate degree may be desirable with 4 years of related experience.
