Requirements
• Extensive product management experience owning complex, technical B2B SaaS and developer-facing platforms, with proven track record launching new products and translating customer needs into clear product strategy and measurable outcomes. • A founder's mindset: you create structure where none exists, make decisions with incomplete information, and take personal accountability for outcomes — not just outputs. • Deep experience with CI/CD systems and deployment tooling, including building capabilities that improve pipeline reliability, performance, and usability at scale in enterprise environments. • Comfort going deep with Engineering on implementation details when needed, including discussing technology trade-offs and their impact on product outcomes. • Strong understanding of personas across the software delivery lifecycle—including developers, platform and DevOps engineers, engineering leaders, and release managers—and how they evaluate and adopt delivery tooling. • Strong technical fluency— able to engage credibly with senior engineers on deployment architecture, AI-assisted workflows, Kubernetes, and platform integrations • Highly analytical and data-driven approach: ability to synthesize qualitative feedback, product usage data, and market research into actionable insights and iterative improvements. • The Continuous Delivery team at GitLab builds and evolves the capabilities that help teams deliver software reliably and repeatedly, from continuous integration (CI) through deployment and release workflows. You'll join a collaborative group of product managers who partner closely with Engineering, UX, Quality, Customer Success, Support, and Go-to-Market teams to understand customer needs, prioritize the right problems, and ship improvements that make GitLab a great place to build and deliver software. • The broader team works in a distributed, asynchronous way across regions, guided by GitLab's values of transparency, iteration, and trusted empowerment. As a Principal Product Manager, Continuous Delivery, you'll operate with high autonomy and significant cross-functional influence, helping align strategy across related stages of the software development lifecycle and driving clarity on priorities, outcomes, and what "great" looks like for customers using GitLab to deliver software at scale. • The base salary range for this role’s listed level is currently for residents of the United States only.
