You own the full lifecycle of what ships and stand behind it. What you'll bring - Proven ability to influence as a Staff owning product or platform systems end to end across multiple engineering and product teams. - High agency, i. e finds the owner, clarifies the path, makes the call, and keeps pushing until the work lands.

What you'll own - Architect how GitLab and third-party data is ingested, modeled, and synced into the knowledge graph as a near-real-time graph of the development ecosystem. - Lead integration with external systems for business context (Jira, observability tools, Zendesk, ServiceNow), indexed into the graph. - Architect the Data Marketplace so customers consume GitLab data through Snowflake, Databricks, and BigQuery with no engineering dependencies. - Publish GitLab observability as OpenTelemetry and broker the data-sharing APIs. - Define operational readiness for everything the team ships across GitLab. com, Dedicated, and Self-Managed. - Translate an ambiguous 0 to 1 problem space into concrete, iterable roadmaps in partnership with Product, Design, and the graph backend team. - Resolve cross-team dependencies across graph backend, AI Platform, and Infrastructure without escalating everything upward. - Mentor senior and intermediate engineers through design reviews, pairing, and code review. - Create organizational leverage through speed. You identify systemic bottlenecks, simplify processes, and design systems that dramatically improve execution velocity.
