Key Responsibilities

Code Integration & Branch Management

- Own the integration of features from development branches into product/release branches.

- Manage and enforce branching and merging strategies (e.g., dev → integration → product).

- Perform regular syncs, rebases, and merges while resolving conflicts cleanly and predictably.

- Ensure only reviewed, tested, and compliant changes land in product branches.

Repository Ownership & Code Sanity

- Act as the custodian of the code repository, maintaining overall structure, hygiene, and consistency.

- Enforce coding standards, commit quality, and change discipline.

- Identify and prevent integration issues such as:

- Broken builds

- Partial or incompatible feature merges

- Regressions caused by cross-team changes

- Proactively refactor or flag risky areas that degrade maintainability or stability.

Build, Validation & Stability

- Ensure integrated code builds cleanly across supported configurations.

- Run and/or gate merges on:

- Smoke tests

- Sanity tests

- Regression test results (as applicable)

- Quickly triage integration failures and drive resolution with feature owners.

- Maintain a green, releasable product branch at all times.

Cross-Team Coordination

- Work closely with:

- Feature development teams

- Validation and QA teams

- Release and program management





- Communicate integration risks, conflicts, and readiness clearly and early.

- Act as the single point of accountability for integration status.

Release Support

- Support release tagging, branching, and handoff.

- Assist in root-causing late-stage issues related to integration or merge errors.

- Ensure traceability of features and fixes included in each product release.

Qualifications

- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science

- Strong experience with Git-based workflows (merge, rebase, cherry-pick, conflict resolution).

- Solid understanding of software/firmware development lifecycles.

- Hands-on experience with CI/build systems and integration gating.

- Solid debugging skills to isolate integration-related failures.

- Ability to work across teams and drive issues to closure.

- Experience in firmware, embedded systems, or system software environments.

- Familiarity with release management in multi-branch, multi-product codebases.

- Experience enforcing or defining branching and release policies.

- Exposure to validation, regression, or bring-up environments.

- Strong written and verbal communication skills.
