This role sits at the intersection of Production, Live Operations, Product, Engineering, and QA. The background could come from Live Operations, Production, Release Management, Technical Production, or Engineering Management.

In this role, you’ll be expected to actively leverage AI‑enabled tools to improve roadmap analysis, dependency mapping, release readiness, documentation, risk identification, incident response, production analytics, decision support, and workflow automation.
We value leaders who experiment thoughtfully with emerging AI technologies to reduce operational overhead, improve visibility and decision‑making, increase release quality, and help teams move faster while maintaining strong standards of safety, accountability, and execution.
