An assembly is provided for a turbine engine with an axial centerline. This turbine engine assembly includes a blade outer air seal segment, a linkage, a rocker arm and an actuation device. The linkage is attached to the blade outer air seal segment. The rocker arm includes a first arm and a second arm engaged with the linkage. The actuation device is engaged with the first arm. The actuation device is configured to pivot the rocker arm and thereby radially move the blade outer air seal segment.
