We are a small, passionate team of software product innovators helping Honda Automotive be competitive in the Hybrid and Electric Vehicle market. We build application experiences for mobile devices. Are you passionate about creating next-generation delightful digital experiences for automotive? Maybe you have worked at some notable automotive companies in this capacity? Would you like to work on new products and product categories at Honda and help Honda invent the future of automotive? Then we would like to hear from you!

Why Drivemode:
Join Drivemode for an exciting startup environment and a vibrant culture that combines impactful work, competitive compensation, and excellent benefits. By becoming a part of our team, you'll contribute to a crucial mission that revolutionizes the way people engage with vehicles, addressing both business needs and the world's environmental challenges. This presents an exceptional opportunity to be at the forefront of innovation and drive Honda's success in the Automotive market.

About This Role:

Drivemode, a Honda company, is looking for a highly technical Senior Release & Service Operations Manager to own and improve the end-to-end software release lifecycle for our connected vehicle and mobile platforms.

This role sits at the intersection of Engineering, Product, Quality Assurance, and Service Operations, ensuring that software releases are predictable, technically sound, fully validated, and operationally ready.

We're looking for someone who goes beyond traditional release coordination. The ideal candidate understands software architecture, development workflows, Git branching strategies, CI/CD pipelines, integration dependencies, and production operations.

You will maintain a comprehensive view of what's planned, what's being developed, what's ready for QA, and what is ultimately included in each release. You should be comfortable working directly with engineers to investigate release risks, validate branch and build readiness, and identify integration gaps before they become production issues.

This role requires both strong technical judgment and exceptional communication skills, including the ability to coordinate across distributed engineering teams and stakeholders in the United States and Japan.
