Job description

Hey, you! Wanna become #OneOfUs?

We are on the lookout 🕵🏻 for the next awesome logistics legend to join HKR.TEAM as a Release Manager, working for a US-based client in streamlining product delivery. 🇺🇸

Btw, HKR.TEAM was remote before it was even cool! 😎

Remote is allowed, encouraged, and the norm. Now, and forever. There’s only one catch, and it comes from this guy:

Whatever you are, be a good one” - Abraham Lincoln.

To apply, please fill out our external form. 🤞🏼

(You will be redirected to it automatically, once you click "Apply").


What you'll be doing?

🔸 Take the wheel of the release process for both the browser and admin panel, navigating multiple teams and projects like a pro.

🔸 Act as the ultimate bridge between Infrastructure, Product, Devs, and QA to ensure every launch is smooth and hits the deadline.

🔸 Keep the release pipeline flowing with minimal friction, coordinating timelines so features and fixes land exactly when they should.

🔸 Guard the gates of quality, spotting and squashing issues before they reach the finish line to ensure a top-tier user experience.

🔸 Keep the vibes and the info flowing—maintaining clear communication so every stakeholder is aligned and ready for blast-off.

🔸 Level up our game by continuously tweaking and scaling the release process to make it faster, smarter, and more efficient.


About you

🚀 You bring 3+ years of experience in Release Management, specifically handling complex software deployment cycles.

🚀 You have a solid technical grip on CI/CD tools (like Jenkins, GitLab CI, or CircleCI) and understand the full release pipeline.

🚀 Your English communication skills are top-notch (C1 level), both written and spoken—you'll be the primary sync point for everyone.

🚀 You are highly organized and detail-oriented, capable of managing complex timelines across multiple teams without losing focus.

🚀 You’re the calm in the storm—able to juggle multiple priorities and make informed, fast decisions under pressure.

🚀 A background in QA or software testing is a huge plus, helping you ensure that every release is actually ready for prime time.

About Us

✨ Feedback fuels our growth, and we celebrate all wins. Meritocracy is our game; it's what you bring to the table that counts.

✨ Fantastic mix of US clients with more to come.

✨ We value ownership and getting things done. We ask, "How much did you care?" If you're passionate, you're nailing it.

✨ Ideal for creative minds who love contributing ideas and improving processes.

✨ Oh... and we don't waste time in useless meetings.

 

Location

 

🧭 Based in Bucharest and Cluj, Romania, we're remote-first. Whether you work from home or pop into the office, we support what works best for you. Embracing change is who we are.
