Join a world-class team at the forefront of high-performance networking technology. As part of the Networking group, this role drives the execution of host software products powering modern datacenters, cloud environments, and software-defined networks. We are looking for a leader to bridge the gap between global development and testing groups, ensuring the most sophisticated markets receive high-quality releases on time. This is a high-visibility opportunity to manage complex product dependencies and shape the future of virtualization and networking infrastructure.
What you’ll be doing:
- Lead the end-to-end delivery of high-quality software releases for host and switch products, from initial kickoff to final signoff.
- Collaborate with Engineering, Operations, Architecture, and Marketing to synchronize schedules and ensure rigorous quality standards.
- Analyze release data, R&D feature status, and bug metrics using advanced planning and tracking tools to build performance indicators.
- Facilitate critical release milestones, including Feature Freeze, Code Freeze, and Beta phases, while managing retrospective sessions to drive continuous improvement.
- Manage simultaneous release tracks across various lifecycles, including General Availability (GA), Monthly Updates, and Long-Term Support (LTS).
- Direct bug triage processes to ensure release convergence and prioritize customer-facing fixes.
- Monitor cross-team dependencies and escalate risks to maintain alignment between development, verification, and QA clusters.
- Oversee release branches, builds, and versioning to ensure seamless integration at both the feature and release levels.
What we need to see:
- Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent experience.
- 5+ years of overall experience, with a proven track record in software release management or technical project leadership.
- Expertise in solving complex problems on-the-fly and managing multi-disciplinary projects within ambiguous environments.
- Strong organizational leadership skills with the ability to work independently and drive results across global teams.
- Exceptional communication and presentation skills, including experience with public speaking and technical reporting in English.
Ways to stand out from the crowd:
- Proficiency with enterprise tools such as MS PowerBI, Confluence, and ticketing systems like Jira or Redmine.
- Deep technical familiarity with Networking technologies and agile software development methodologies.
- Hands-on experience with GIT and version control best practices.
- Prior success in product management combined with software release execution.
