Build and release engineers work on a variety of software development and deployment projects, ensuring that each version and release is thoroughly tested for performance and reliability. This is a programming-intensive job, requiring extensive familiarity with scripting languages along with adherence to best practices for version control and bug tracking.
Most build and release engineers work on teams of developers and project managers, where they are responsible for several elements of the final software product.
