Release Train Engineer (RTE)

Enterprise Intelligence and Data Solutions (EIDS) | PEO DHMS / Workforce 3.0

Remote

Program Manager of EIDS

We are looking for a senior Release Train Engineer (RTE) to support Enterprise Intelligence and Data Solutions (EIDS) as part of BCG Federal's Workforce 3.0 managed solution for the Program Executive Office, Defense Healthcare Management Systems (PEO DHMS). The RTE will serve as the servant leader and chief Scrum Master / Team Coach for an EIDS Agile Release Train (ART), owning the ART operating rhythm and helping multiple technical and product teams plan, coordinate, execute, and improve together.

This role will lead PI Planning and ART-level execution; facilitate ART Syncs, iteration reviews, System Demos, Inspect & Adapt and related events; manage risks, impediments, dependencies, and escalation paths; coach Scrum Masters / Team Coaches, Product Owners, Product Management, and delivery teams; and maintain transparent delivery information in Azure Dev Ops (ADO). The RTE will work closely with EIDS Government leads, the Solution Train Engineer (STE), peer RTEs, DSO / SAFe implementation resources, Product and Platform leaders, BCG, and other contractor teams.

EIDS operates a large, technically diverse federal health-data portfolio spanning data, analytics, cloud, application, cybersecurity, and integration capabilities. Success in this role means a well-run ART with clear PI objectives, predictable execution, visible dependencies and risks, strong team-level Agile discipline, useful delivery metrics, and trusted relationships that enable issues to be resolved quickly without relying on direct authority.

Lead ART planning, cadence, and execution

• Own end-to-end readiness and facilitation for PI Planning, including planning calendars, agendas, capacity inputs, backlog and feature readiness, dependency identification, risk preparation, planning materials, invitations, and post-event outputs.
• Facilitate ART-level events and operating rhythms, including ART Sync / Scrum of Scrums, Product Owner or product-management synchronization as appropriate, iteration reviews and demos, System Demos, Inspect & Adapt, PI reviews, and other execution forums required by the ART.
• Coordinate iteration and PI start, execution, review, and closeout so objectives, features, milestones, capacity, dependencies, and team commitments are documented, understood, and actively managed.
• Maintain ART calendars, rosters, working agreements, planning resources, and documentation so teams and stakeholders have a consistent source of truth for how the ART operates.

Manage risks, dependencies, impediments, and delivery health

• Continuously monitor ART progress against PI objectives and delivery commitments; identify variance early and facilitate recovery actions before issues become critical.
• Identify, visualize, and drive resolution of cross-team dependencies, risks, impediments, and decision points; establish owners and due dates and
  ** escalate
  * * unresolved systemic issues to the STE / Solution Train or Government leadership at the appropriate level.
• Use ADO, ART events, delivery metrics, team input, and qualitative signals to create an accurate view of delivery health, flow, capacity, risk, and emerging constraints.
• Coordinate with peer RTEs and the Solution Train on cross-ART dependencies, shared services, technical sequencing, resource constraints, and high-visibility issues that affect EIDS-wide PI execution.

Coach teams and mature SAFe adoption

• Coach Scrum Masters / Team Coaches, Product Owners, Product Managers, and team members in practical SAFe and Lean-Agile execution, with particular emphasis on facilitation, backlog readiness, flow, dependency management, and continuous improvement.
• Observe team and ART events, provide targeted coaching, and step in to facilitate team-level ceremonies when necessary to maintain continuity while building the capability of the permanent team facilitator.
• Partner with DSO / SAFe implementation resources to mature ART practices, standardize effective ways of working, support ART launch or reset activities, and create reusable guidance or training for EIDS personnel.
• Use retrospectives, Inspect & Adapt, delivery metrics, and recurring execution patterns to identify root causes and drive measurable improvement actions into subsequent iterations and PIs.

Maintain ADO discipline, reporting, and delivery transparency
