GitLab is seeking a Director of Product Management, Platforms to own the product direction and business outcomes for GitLab's software as a service (SaaS) environments: GitLab.com and GitLab Dedicated.

As Director of Product, SaaS Platforms, you'll connect reliability, scalability, and operability with the commercial decisions that make these platforms sustainable businesses. Your scope spans both platforms, not a single feature roadmap.

Responsibilities:

• Set the product strategy and roadmap across GitLab.com and GitLab Dedicated, connecting platform capabilities to customer and business outcomes.
• Drive improvements in platform reliability, scalability, and operability, including better separation between customers and expansion of GitLab.com's cell-based architecture.

• Scale GitLab Dedicated through maintenance-window automation and other operational improvements, while controlling costs and improving gross margin.
• Expand customer self-service through Switchboard, giving customers tools to monitor, observe, and operate their Dedicated tenants.
• Guide capabilities such as customer-initiated disaster recovery and geographic redundancy, and enable earlier access to beta features on GitLab Dedicated.
• Reduce the delay between GitLab releases and their availability on Dedicated.
• Own the business side of the portfolio as well as the technical product direction, developing profit and loss (P&L) ownership for both platforms and helping establish GitLab.com as a P&L business.

Requirements:

• Experience leading a product portfolio at director level or with comparable scope, setting direction across multiple related products rather than a single roadmap.
• Technical product experience with cloud platforms, infrastructure, or SaaS environments, including the tradeoffs involved in reliability, scalability, and operations.
• The ability to connect product decisions to commercial outcomes, including monetization, operating costs, and gross margin.
• Experience translating complex platform challenges into product priorities and working across teams to deliver them.
• The ability to lead through product direction and influence in a director-level individual contributor role.

Benefits:

• Benefits to support your health, finances, and well-being
• Flexible Paid Time Off
• Team Member Resource Groups
• Equity Compensation & Employee Stock Purchase Plan
• Growth and Development Fund
