As an AI Subject Matter Expert at GitLab, you will help shape how teams apply AI across the future of core DevOps. We designed this role for someone who combines deep technical credibility with a practical point of view on how AI can improve the software development lifecycle, from planning and coding through delivery and operations. You will work closely with customers, internal teams, and product-aligned stakeholders to bring clarity to emerging use cases, guide technical strategy, and turn ideas into grounded, real-world approaches.
We are looking for someone who doesn't just talk about possibilities, but who regularly experiments, develops informed perspectives, and can explain the tradeoffs behind modern software development patterns. Your work will help GitLab link AI innovation to the day-to-day realities of developers and platform teams.
Some examples of our projects:
The AI subject matter expert joins a small global team within GitLab's Solutions Architecture organization that provides deep domain expertise aligned to GitLab's product areas. We are built to link fast-moving AI innovation with the realities of customer environments and modern software delivery. Rather than staying at a high level, we focus on practical technical depth and help translate emerging ideas into useful guidance.
This role is specifically aligned to core DevOps, alongside peers focused on other areas such as platforms and security and compliance. We work across regions and collaborate closely with product-aligned functions, making this a strong fit for someone who enjoys working across technical boundaries while staying grounded in hands-on knowledge. Our challenge is to keep pace with rapid change in AI while remaining clear, credible, and useful to the people building and operating software every day.
