Job Description
Software Release Manager, Asset Services Get To Know Us: Company Overview SS&C is a global provider of investment and financial services and software for the financial services and healthcare industries, and employs more than 27,000 people in offices in 35 countries across the globe. SS&C GIDS Asset Services APAC is predominantly located in Melbourne, Sydney , Thailand and India . We are the largest provider of Transfer Agency services in the region , providing an Investor, Advisor, Fund Manager and Custodian end to end service offering. Reports to : Head of Engineering – Asset Services (GIDS APAC Asset Services Engineering) Location: RSU Tower Bangkok, Thailand What is the opportunity? We are looking for an experienced Software Release Manager to own the release process for all software releases of our Transfer Agency platforms within GIDS APAC Asset Services Engineering. These are large, complex enterprise platforms made up of many versioned products, components and services that are deployed together into shared environments, often with integrations to third-party and other externally managed products across SS&C. This is a key role in enabling us to deliver software reliably, predictably and safely at scale. It is both a technical and non-technical role, but leans towards coordination, communication and stakeholder engagement – bringing order and confidence to how we plan, sequence and ship releases across many moving parts. You will join a friendly and collaborative team that values mutual respect, continuous learning and a supportive, well-balanced working environment. As Software Release Manager you will own the release calendar, manage dependencies and conflicts across teams, and take accountability for the quality of our release procedures, release notes and version management. You will work closely with engineering teams on release planning and automation, and you will be a driving force behind simplifying our environments and versioning so that releases become smoother and lower-risk over time. You will lead this work largely through influence – through trust, clear communication, strong facilitation and a collaborative approach – rather than direct authority over the teams involved. AI is central to how we work. This is a big job, and using AI is essential to doing it well. You will bring AI tooling into every part of your day – planning, coordination, release notes, risk analysis, version mapping and stakeholder communication – and you will continually look for new ways to let AI carry the load so you can focus on judgement and engagement.
