This role supports Commercial and Enterprise segments in India's Southern Region.

You'll also occasionally support regional go-to-market partners that provide Professional Services.

Your work will help customers adopt GitLab successfully, support revenue growth through solution selling, and build long-term, trusted relationships.

- Represent GitLab at online and in-person marketing events, including webinars, industry events, presentations, roundtables, panels, demonstration days, and hackathons.

- Build trusted relationships with technical practitioners and business leaders, guide GitLab-driven transformation, and help customers become GitLab advocates.

- Advise customers on modern software development, continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD), security, and cloud practices to improve their return on investment.

- Share customer feedback, use cases, and competitive insights with Product Management, Engineering, Sales, and Marketing while continuing to build expertise and reusable guidance in GitLab, DevSecOps, AI, and cloud technologies.

### Requirements

- Experience guiding Commercial and Enterprise customers through solution design and evaluation in technical presales, consulting, or a similar role.

- Knowledge of the end-to-end software development lifecycle, including modern DevSecOps practices and CI/CD workflows.

- Hands-on experience with GitLab or comparable source control, CI/CD, and collaboration platforms, with the ability to connect platform capabilities to customer use cases.

- Practical knowledge of cloud computing concepts and related technologies, including deployment, security, and operations options.

- Ability to lead proofs of concept or value, contribute to tenders or audits, and design and run workshops or value stream assessments.

- Clear technical communication and presentation skills, with the ability to adapt your message for practitioners and senior business and technical decision-makers.
