As a Senior Professional Services Engagement Manager focused on the Department of Defense (DoD) and Federal Systems Integrators (FSI), you will play a critical role in driving GitLab’s growth in the public sector by structuring services engagements that create true partnership and shared success with our customers. You will lead efforts to design, position, and close outcome-oriented professional services engagements that translate complex DevSecOps and digital transformation initiatives into clear, measurable mission-critical outcomes.
Reporting to the Senior Manager of Engagement Management, AMER, you will work at the intersection of technical solutioning and government contracting, aligning each engagement to the unique procurement, security, and compliance requirements of DoD agencies and their systems integrator partners.

This is a unique opportunity to shape large-scale implementations that improve how critical government programs plan, build, secure, and operate software using GitLab.
