About the Role

You will own how Cosmo ships, ensuring timely and correct releases across firmware, software, and cloud services. This includes managing the release calendar, readiness reviews, go/no-go calls, staged firmware rollouts, and maintaining release tooling.

Responsibilities

  • Own the release calendar and versioning for firmware OTA updates, mobile app releases, and backend deployments.
  • Run release readiness reviews and go/no-go calls, coordinating release-night execution with engineering, QA, support, and offshore teams.
  • Manage staged FOTA rollouts, including defining cohorts and stages, monitoring device health, and pausing or rolling back when needed.
  • Own code freezes, including holiday freezes, and the exception process.
  • Own pre-release builds and distribution for UAT, internal testing, influencers, and media.
  • Own the release configuration in Jira, including fix versions, release workflows, and automated release notes.
  • Plan release and incident coverage for holidays and high-risk launches, with clear escalation paths.
  • Write and maintain release runbooks.
  • Track release quality after every release and share learnings with the Sr TPM and engineering leads.

Requirements

  • 4+ years in release management, release coordination, or a closely related role.
  • Hands-on experience releasing software for connected devices, consumer electronics, wearables, or IoT, including firmware updates in the field.
  • Working knowledge of branching and release strategies, CI/CD pipelines, and QA cycles.
  • Experience with app store review cycles and staged rollouts.
  • Strong Jira skills, including versions, release workflows, and automation rules.
  • Calm, clear communication when a release is at risk, and the confidence to call a no-go.
  • Experience coordinating releases with offshore teams across time zones.
