GitLab is an open-core software company that develops the intelligent orchestration platform for DevSecOps, used by more than 100,000 organizations and 50 million people. Our mission is to unlock every team to ship trusted software at the speed of imagination.

Software is increasingly built by machines and directed by people. When agentic coding tools accelerate without context, governance, and lifecycle control, teams get speed with chaos. GitLab enables speed with control: customers deploy agents across the software development lifecycle (SDLC) with the orchestration, context, security, and governance to ship trusted software at scale.

The same principles show up in how we work. We build a culture of excellence around Speed with Quality, Ownership Mindset, and Customer Outcomes, and we treat AI as a core productivity multiplier. Every team member is expected to put AI into daily workflows to move faster without losing control. GitLab is where careers accelerate, innovation flourishes, and every voice is valued.

An overview of this role

As Principal Program Manager, Go-To-Market, you own two equal pillars of go-to-market execution for Product & Technical Marketing (PTM). First, you are the strategic and hands-on architect behind GitLab's high-stakes minor and major launches, redesigning the launch operating model with AI agents at its core so customers discover, adopt, and experience GitLab with precision.

Second, you run program management on key initiatives that span Product Management and Product Design through Growth Marketing, Comms and Social, and Field Enablement, wherever those motions depend on PTM. PTM team is responsible for product and solutions marketing, technical writing and documentation, developer advocacy, and globalization, and acts as the glue between these functions across a variety of go-to-market initiatives.

You are AI-first by default. When programs still run on many manual steps, you convert that work into team-wide AI workflows, either by shipping the automations yourself or by partnering with the AI Transformation Owner (ATO) for the marketing organization to drive shared skills, adoption, and governance. You are not a reactive deadline chaser. You drive solutions with stakeholders as dates approach, design decision stages so tradeoffs land early, and redesign stages and workflows when product roadmap, growth priorities, or major launch decisions change. You create clarity in ambiguity: frame the problem, present options and tradeoffs, name owners, and optimize for decision velocity.

In your first year, you institutionalize a dual operating system: a scalable launch framework for 15+ minor and major launches per year, and a portfolio program practice that maps dependencies from Product and Design through PTM into Growth, Comms, and Field. You ship production agent workflows that cut manual coordination, establish benchmarks for quality, and make go-to-market program management achieve relevance in the AI era, and become a trusted partner across the organization.

Reporting to the VP of Product & Technical Marketing, you operate with significant executive visibility and autonomy. You measure success by what lands for customers and the business: pipeline where it matters, and brand and community impact where business requires it, not by activity volume alone.

Some examples of projects:

• Orchestrate minor launches that put new platform releases in front of the community

• Orchestrate major launches tied to company events that move pipeline

• Orchestrate weekly signal announcements so we stay present in a fast-moving ecosystem

• Sequence product decisions into PTM and other go-to-market functions, with clear handoffs

• Keep field enablement on track when they depend on messaging and sales assets

• Design decision points early so blockers show up before the deadline

• Scope launches for pipeline and for post-launch adoption when agentic products are involved

• Build AI workflows that draft briefs, synthesize status, and cut manual program steps

• Rebuild stages and calendars when roadmap, growth priorities, or launch plans change

• Run retrospectives that improve the system, and remove process as often as you add it

• Run a concurrent portfolio of PTM-dependent initiatives with clear owners, dates, and tradeoffs

• Give leadership the context to decide: risks, options, and a recommendation, not status theater

• Align go-to-market functions when work streams collide or compete for the same people

• Codify how programs run so each cycle starts sharper than the last

• Put quality in the path of the work, then confirm market-facing pieces landed as intended

• Turn recurring coordination into shared AI workflows the team can run without you in the loop

• Partner with Marketing's ATO when a workflow needs department-wide adoption or guardrails

• Escalate early with a clear ask when a call sits above the working team

• Protect focus with smaller core teams, fewer standing meetings, more working sessions

• Close the loop on results with the data team, then feed what you learn into the next cycle

What you'll bring

• Program management for go-to-market across the high-tech industry, with first-hand experience with complex, multi-stakeholder and cross-functional initiatives.

• Experience building and scaling how programs run in large, distributed orgs, with clear results

• Hands-on work with AI agents and automations that real teams used in production

• A track record of turning manual work into AI workflows and helping others adopt them

• Comfort standing up launch and program frameworks without adding busywork

• Strong grasp of how product releases and how they impact go-to-market teams

• Bias to action for priorities: defining risks and clear options for path forward

• Habit of measuring success by pipeline, adoption, or consumption, not activity counts

• Ability to run several high-stakes workstreams at once without dropping quality or trust

• Clear writing and speaking with executives; gets decisions made across competing priorities

• Influence without direct authority, including with senior leaders

• Fluency with project tools with AI automation on top, and the ability to use GitLab

• Ability to travel if needed and comply with the company's travel policy

• Flexible Paid Time Off

• Team Member Resource Groups

• Equity Compensation & Employee Stock Purchase Plan

• Growth and Development Fund

• Parental Leave
