The opportunity
GitLab is the intelligent orchestration platform for DevSecOps. GitLab enables organizations to increase developer productivity, improve operational efficiency, reduce security and compliance risk, and accelerate digital transformation.
What you'll do
Delivery of the Cells and Organizations roadmap: cell provisioning and lifecycle, the routing and topology layer, organization data migration tooling, and feature parity across the platform.
Migration execution. Cohort-based movement of customer Organizations onto: cells with zero data loss, verified rollback, and no downtime outside the tenant in flight.
A multi-cloud, multi-region cell footprint and the architectural decisions: that govern what stays cell-local and what crosses boundaries.
The engineering organization. Hire, level, and develop managers and senior: ICs across several teams. Set the technical bar and the operating cadence.
Cross-functional leadership. This charter touches nearly every product group: at GitLab. You will drive commitments and sequencing with peer engineering leaders, Product, Infrastructure, and Security — much of it asynchronously, across time zones, in public issues and merge requests.
Customer Organizations running on cells in production, migrated cleanly and on schedule.
What they're looking for
- Availability and latency improvements attributable to isolation and load distribution.
- Infrastructure cost per unit of capacity trending down as the footprint grows.
- Throughput and retention of the teams you build.
- Experience leading multiple teams through managers (roughly 25–60 engineers),: including hiring and developing managers.
