Job Description:

The DevSecOps Deployment & Release Manager owns the orchestration, automation, and security of the CI/CD pipeline, maintaining strict operational focus on separating physical code deployment from logical business release. Operating within a zero-trust, shift-left engineering framework, this role ensures the delivery train is technically primed for daily, silent deployments to Production while managing the governance of regularly occurring feature releases.

Rather than managing traditional manual release windows, this manager architecturally enforces an automated, multi-stage gated pipeline that passes identical build packages across all environments to eliminate "Staging Drift." By leveraging Azure App Configuration, they ensure that code flows continuously into Integration (INT), Pre-Release (LOD), and Production (PRD) strictly restricted to a deactivated "Off State" (Dark Launching).

The DevSecOps Deployment & Release Manager acts as the ultimate gatekeeper of the automated pipeline mechanics—embedding automated security scans (Sonatype & Fortify), validation profiles across the 4 Performance Pillars, and instant rollback capabilities to guarantee zero-day production stability without application restarts.

Essential Skills and Experience Required:

• 5 to 7+ years of experience with the following:
• Driving the orchestration, automation, and security of the CI/CD pipeline
• Significant hands-on technical experience in an environment that had daily releases
• Experience with automated security scans
• Championed daily deployments that used Feature Flags to deploy code in off state using Azure App Configuration feature flag wrappers
• Experience with Infrastructure deployments in Azure
• Methods to obtain zero variations in build artifacts across DEV, INT, LOD, and PRD environments
• Orchestration of automated performance testing in an Azure environment
• Enabling instant operational rollbacks
• Candidate must be experienced with creating and presenting reports to business stakeholders on the daily releases
• Candidate must have strong teamwork skills, strong presentation skills, and strong problem solving skills
• Candidate must be able to pass a Federal Government background check

Preferred Skills and Experience:

• Experience with Azure Gov Cloud
• Experience working with FedRAMP, FISMA High, and /or Zero Trust
• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Business, or a related field
