Stand up and lead a new team owning observability across GitLab's billing and provisioning systems

GitLab is hiring an Engineering Manager to build and lead a team responsible for observability, reliability, and secure integrations across its Monetization/Fulfillment area — spanning CustomersDot, Salesforce, and Zuora. In your first year you'll hire the team, stand up incident response and operating rhythms, and drive billing-anomaly detection and integration strategy for revenue-critical systems. This interview weighs people-management fundamentals (hiring, 0-to-1 team building) as heavily as technical judgment on observability architecture and financially sensitive systems.
