Engineering Manager, Growth at GitLab — lead a fullstack team running experiments across acquisition, activation, and monetization
This role leads GitLab's Growth engineering team, responsible for the full-funnel loop of acquisition, activation, engagement, retention, and monetization through self-serve experimentation on GitLab.com. You'll hire and coach a globally distributed, asynchronous fullstack team, guide technical architecture and experiment design, and partner closely with Product, Design, and Data to prioritize work using an ICE-based framework. The role blends people management with hands-on technical guidance across product boundaries, requiring experience managing remote teams and driving AI-native experimentation workflows.
