Description
We’re SmartThings, one of the leading IoT ecosystems in the world, creating the most effortless way for anyone to create a smart home. We're a wholly owned subsidiary of Samsung with corporate offices in Minneapolis and the Bay Area.
More than 430 million people worldwide use SmartThings to control and manage their connected life. SmartThings delivers simple, powerful experiences across Samsung’s leading portfolio of phones, TVs, and appliances. We also offer the most versatile smart home experience as an open platform with a rich partner ecosystem (think IKEA, SONOS, Honeywell, and so many more). As a founding member of Matter, we are a leader in the industry to help make smart homes more secure, reliable and seamless to use. Come be a part of the leading edge of IoT innovation!
As the Release Engineering Manager for Samsung SmartThings, your customers aren’t the end-users turning on smart lights. Your customers are the hundreds of internal developers building the SmartThings ecosystem.
Sitting within the Platform Engineering organization, your mission is to remove friction from the developer lifecycle. SmartThings operates at a massive global scale, and we need a leader who views the deployment pipeline not as a series of bureaucratic gates, but as a high-performance internal product. You will lead a team of engineers dedicated to building self-service delivery platforms that empower developers to ship code to millions of devices safely, autonomously, and with the goal of reducing cognitive overload.
Key Responsibilities
This position is a hybrid role, based onsite 3 days a week at our office in Minneapolis, MN.
In this role, your primary responsibilities will include the following:
- Treat Release as a Product: Define the roadmap for our deployment internal developer platform (IDP). Gather feedback, and build features that solve real developer pain points.
- Abstract Infrastructure Complexity: Build smart guardrails and abstractions around AWS, Kubernetes, and GitOps workflows so developers can focus on writing business logic, not wrestling with deployment manifests.
- Cross-Functional Partnerships: Partner with cloud platform to ensure the release platform accommodates varied workflows while maintaining unified compliance and security standards.
- Bridge Distributed Engineering Hubs: Act as a key collaborator and liaison with global Samsung engineering teams (including teams in South Korea and other international hubs). Navigate varying time zones and technical cultures to drive alignment on release strategies and platform adoption.
- Federated Governance: Establish clear, shared release standards and "Golden Paths" that empower decentralized, global engineering teams to deploy independently without risking ecosystem stability.
- Lead a Developer-Centric Team: Manage, mentor, and grow a team of Release and DevOps engineers, focusing on automation and developer empowerment. Cross-train existing siloed knowledge, and grow the capabilities of team-members.
- Utilize AI-tooling to accelerate the internal developer platform.
- Evangelize Modern Release Paradigms: Partner with engineering leads across SmartThings to champion progressive delivery (canary deployments, feature flagging, automated rollbacks) as standard developer practices.
- Onboarding & Documentation: Own the documentation, golden paths, and onboarding experiences that ensure a new developer can safely deploy code on day one.
- Automate the Blast Radius: Build automated smoke testing, canary analysis, and instant rollback mechanisms into the pipeline so developers can fail fast and recover faster without breaking the smart home network.

- The Cloud Native Stack: Deep expertise with containerization, Kubernetes (EKS), EC2, lambda, and AWS infrastructure.
