The GitLab DevOps platform empowers 100,000+ organizations to deliver software faster and more efficiently. We are one of the world’s largest all-remote companies with 1,800+ team members and values that guide a culture where people embrace the belief that everyone can contribute.

Our entire handbook is public. You can find the details of our vision & direction, read through the direction of our Incubation department, and track the OKRs that guide our Single Engineer Groups (SEG).

A brief overview:

As a Senior Fullstack Engineer in the Incubation Engineering Department at GitLab, you will be working on projects that are pre-Product/Market fit. Your focus will be on moving fast, shipping, getting feedback, and iterating on ideas that may contribute to our revenue in 3-5 years' time.

We utilize Single Engineer Groups (SEGs) in our Incubation department. Your role will encompass all of product development; from product management to engineering, design, and quality at the smallest scale. You'll learn from, and collaborate with, larger departments at GitLab.

This SEG we're hiring for is focused on our Service Desk offering. We'd like to make Service Desk an integral part of the GitLab support workflow. We have early usage, and a community of prolific contributors and it's a great opportunity to create the next stage of development that meets our customers needs. 

You'll aim to create a convenient and low-cost alternative to third party tools by integrating a seamless experience for our customers & bridge the gap between developers and support staff.

The Incubation Engineering team works transparently and posts weekly updates to YouTube. You can see the team's latest updates in this Youtube playlist.

What you can expect in a Fullstack Engineer role in our Incubation department:

  • Develop features and improvements in a secure, well-tested, and performant way
  • Work closely with company leadership to guide GitLab’s entry into the market represented by this Service Desk SEG
  • Interact with community members and help drive initial user adoption
  • Develop strategies for scaling beyond the Incubation phase
  • Craft code that meets our internal standards for style, maintainability, and best practices for a high-scale web environment. * Maintain and advocate for these standards through code review.
  • Regularly demonstrate progress to stakeholders

You should apply if:

  • You are an experienced Ruby or Go engineer with an interest in developing Service Desk capabilities into GitLab and can work autonomously to discover product / market fit.
  • You demonstrate a desire to work in a “startup within a startup” with a broad scope of ownership and high degree of autonomy.
