When you step into a career with AT&T, you won’t just imagine the future-you’ll create it. Principal Enterprise Systems Engineer What You'll Do The Principal Enterprise Systems Engineer will define, operationalize, and scale Enterprise Release Management across AT&T Technology Services. This role will establish a consistent framework that gives leaders trusted visibility into release readiness, dependencies, risks, customer impact, and improvement opportunities across large multi-million dollar, cross functional, strategic programs, applications, and infrastructure. As a strategic leader and transformation partner, you will work across delivery, architecture, infrastructure, reliability, security, change management, and platform teams. You will preserve program and application-team ownership of release execution while establishing the enterprise standards, governance, scorecards, and enabling capabilities needed to improve release predictability, reliability, velocity, and compliance. Beyond individual programs, you will help reduce change risk across the entire application portfolio. You will set the direction and vision for Enterprise Release Management and also build, validate, and operate the data, metrics, and tooling that support it. Key Responsibilities Define and evolve the Enterprise Release Management strategy, operating model, roadmap, and adoption approach across ATS. Operationalize and scale standardized release-management playbooks, dependency practices, readiness criteria, deployment guidance, communications, and governance. Lead onboarding of strategic programs through discovery, working sessions, tabletop exercises, adoption planning, and governance mobilization. Establish clear accountability across Enterprise Release Management, Program Release Management, delivery, application, infrastructure, and Change Management teams. Develop and govern an enterprise release scorecard with clear metric objectives, definitions, calculation methods, source systems, and ownership. Build and validate release data models, source-system mappings, metric calculations, and reporting using Jira Align, Jira Cloud, ServiceNow, and analytics platforms. Align delivery, release, reliability, risk, quality, and compliance measures while avoiding duplicate or competing sources of truth. Translate release data into leadership decisions, targeted interventions, and measurable improvement actions. Create enterprise visibility into release scope, schedules, readiness, dependencies, risks, change activity, and customer impact. Strengthen cross-program and application-to-infrastructure dependency identification, ownership, escalation, and resolution. Establish evidence-based readiness and risk-review practices that support consistent go/no-go decisions. Lead portfolio-wide change-risk and resiliency capabilities, working with partner organizations. These include application risk scoring, change-request completeness review, and risk-based oversight of changes to business-critical applications. Partner with Infrastructure Engineering organization to scale enterprise patching and infrastructure change across large application portfolios. Drive end-to-end traceability from business initiative and delivery work through source-code change, pipeline execution, change record, deployment, and production outcome. Partner with architecture, DevOps, ITSM, data, and platform teams to advance integration across Jira Align, Jira Cloud, GitHub/GitHub Actions, JFrog, ServiceNow, LeanIX, observability, and analytics platforms. Define and guide responsible AI use cases, including change validation, release-risk assessment, evidence verification, dependency analysis, intelligent scheduling, and release decision support. Establish human-in-the-loop controls, accountability, auditability, and measurable outcomes for AI-enabled release capabilities. Facilitate executive governance forums and communicate release health, strategic risks, dependencies, adoption progress, and required interventions. Mentor release-management professionals and foster a culture of transparency, accountability, shared ownership, and continuous improvement.

Demonstrated ability to move between executive strategy and hands-on execution, including data analysis, metric validation, and tooling enablement. Strong understanding of release readiness, dependency management, risk assessment, change controls, progressive delivery, rollback planning, observability, incident analysis, and outage root-cause analysis. Experience defining KPIs, metric objectives, calculation methodologies, source ownership, governance processes, and executive scorecards. Experience establishing standardized playbooks, operating procedures, onboarding methods, governance forums, and adoption models. Working knowledge of AI-enabled analytics, generative AI, prompt engineering, workflow automation, and human-in-the-loop decision models. Experience developing executive-level dashboards, analytics, visualizations, and data-driven presentations using Power BI and related business intelligence platforms. Strong executive communication, facilitation, negotiation, stakeholder-management, and organizational-influence skills.
