Answer:

It's the Release Train Engineer (RTE)

The Release Train Engineer is a servant leader and operates as a full-time 'Chief Scrum Master' of the train. The Release Train Engineer (RTE) tracks the Features and Capabilities release dates. The RTE conducts the Program Increment (PI) planning events for each Agile Release Train (ART). The RTE is responsible for ensuring the required stakeholders attend the two-day event and that all the logistics for the successful completion of the event are in place. The RTE needs to have the PI Planning, Iterations and System Demo dates defined so that a holistic picture of the work being executed by an ART can be made available to the stakeholders. It is worth noting that more than 1 ART can make up a Value Stream. Also, Capabilities are broken down into Features that are linked to an ART. ARTs derive their score from the features that have been allocated to the PI. The score refers to the Business Value that an ART is supposed to deliver during the PI.
