Director of Product Management, Agentic Software Delivery

GitLab is an intelligent orchestration platform for DevSecOps. The Director of Product Management, Agentic Software Delivery will own the strategy, vision, and business outcomes across Continuous Integration, Artifact Management, Continuous Deployment, and Observability, while leading senior and principal product managers. The role will drive AI-enabled software delivery, investment decisions, customer adoption, pricing, packaging, and cross-functional collaboration with Engineering and go-to-market teams.

Responsibilities:

• Own the strategy, three-year vision, and business outcomes for GitLab's Agentic Software Delivery section, with a clear point of view on how artificial intelligence is changing software delivery
• Lead and develop senior and principal product managers across Continuous Integration, Artifact Management, Continuous Deployment, and Observability, helping them grow as independent decision-makers
• Establish the frameworks, standards, and operating rhythm that support consistent, high-quality product decisions without unnecessary escalation
• Own section-level key performance indicators and adoption funnels, using the results to reallocate investment or stop work that isn't paying off
• Evaluate major strategic bets, partnerships, and build, buy, or partner decisions, and develop the business cases that support them
• Partner with Engineering leadership on platform investment, architectural direction, and trade-offs across the section, while connecting build, package, deploy, and monitor into one coherent customer experience
• Drive pricing, packaging, go-to-market strategy, migration, and adoption with Product Marketing, Sales, Pricing, Customer Success, and Solutions Engineering across free, commercial, and enterprise offerings
• Represent the section with GitLab's senior leadership, key enterprise customers, partners, and industry audiences, while modeling AI-native product management across discovery, synthesis, prototyping, roadmap exploration, and concept development

Requirements:

• • Experience leading product managers, including developing senior and principal talent, hiring, and addressing performance directly
• • A track record of owning a portfolio across multiple product areas and being accountable for adoption, retention, and revenue, not only roadmap delivery
• • Product management depth in one or more relevant areas, such as continuous integration and continuous delivery pipelines, artifact or package management, release management, or observability
• • Sound judgment about where to invest and where to stop, including experience making and defending build, buy, or partner decisions with a business case
• • Technical fluency to work with engineers and architects on pipeline design, artifact workflows, deployment strategies, and observability signals such as logs, metrics, and traces
• • Experience shaping pricing and packaging for technical products across free, commercial, and enterprise offerings
• • Experience working with technical customers in developer tools, DevOps, or software delivery environments where engineers and engineering leaders are primary users
• • Executive-level communication and influence
• • Practical use of AI tools in product management workflows, along with a thoughtful view of how AI and agentic workflows are changing software delivery. We welcome candidates whose experience may come from different but transferable product and leadership paths
