Deployment and Release Manager

job summary:

Remote

location: Telecommute job type: Contract salary: $80 - 95 per hour work hours: 9am to 5pm education: Bachelors

responsibilities:

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.
