Release Train Engineer (RTE)

A Release Train Engineer (RTE) is a facilitator and coordinator in Agile project management, specifically within the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe). Think of the RTE as a conductor of a train, ensuring that different teams (like train cars) work together smoothly to deliver software or products on time. The RTE helps set goals, organizes meetings, removes obstacles, and keeps everyone focused and aligned with the overall mission. Their role is crucial for fostering teamwork and efficiency, ultimately leading to the successful release of products or features.
