Full Job Posting

Role overview

A national government ministry in Qatar is consolidating services from public and private-sector bodies into a citizen-facing mobile app.

The app releases every two weeks. The Release Manager owns the cycle from scope cut-off through live deployment and stabilisation.

The role is part of a three-person service management team and reports to the Senior Service Manager.

What you'll do

  • Own the two-week release calendar and keep the programme to schedule.
  • Run change approval, including technical sign-off from solution architects.
  • Chair release readiness reviews and make go/no-go decisions.
  • Manage App Store and Google Play submissions, staged rollouts, and versioning.
  • Coordinate app and backend changes across the vendor, integration layer, and connected entities.
  • Plan rollback, hotfix, and emergency releases while maintaining the cadence.
  • Report on-time rate, change failure rate, and rollbacks to programme leadership.

What you'll bring

  • 6–8+ years in release, change, or DevOps delivery management.
  • Hands-on experience releasing a mobile app through Apple and Google on a frequent cadence.
  • Experience on large multi-vendor, multi-stakeholder programmes.
  • Working knowledge of CI/CD, including Azure DevOps or similar, and ITSM tooling such as ServiceNow or Jira Service Management.
  • Knowledge of ITIL change practice that supports a two-week release cycle.
  • Government or regulated-sector experience is a plus.

Good to have

  • ITIL 4, PSM, CSM, SAFe, or Azure DevOps Engineer Expert credentials are desirable.

Schedule

  • Some out-of-hours deployments and participation in a release on-call rota are part of the job.
