The primary role of the Interface Release Manager is to oversee the release of VA Electronic Health Record Modernization program external system interfaces during VA Medical Center (VAMC) conversions from their existing Health Record system. This role focuses on coordinating the interface development teams, requirements, testing, and release schedules of interfaces to ensure readiness and availability for VAMC go-live events. The Release Manager will participate on the Integrated Change Advisory Board (ICAB) and in sprint planning or scrums in order to be aware of all changes occurring across the site's release. This role may also communicate any challenges or impacts to external solutions in relation to managing the internal dependencies. In general, this role focuses more on the details of the broad release and should participate in or lead any site release related meetings. The Release Manager ensures coordination of day-to-day activities of the interface teams supporting each assigned site's go-live event.

The Release Manager role combines requirements management, project management (e.g., project planning, project tracking and oversight, risk management), design, development, configuration management including change control, test, and release.
