As Engineering Manager for the Agent Execution group, you'll lead more than 10 engineers who build foundations for AI agents to run safely and effectively across GitLab. You'll give the group clarity, remove obstacles, and help teams move quickly while protecting what matters. You'll contribute to design reviews on sandboxing and agent observability, work alongside staff engineers, and use modern AI coding tools and agent harnesses in your work.
We’re building the product and infrastructure that make GitLab an effective environment for running agents across the software development lifecycle. Our three teams, Agent Tools, Agent Observability, and Runner Execution, work on areas ranging from GitLab's Model Context Protocol (MCP) server and configurable network access to agent sandboxing and transparent agent interactions across GitLab. We’re distributed across three continents and partner with teams throughout GitLab to help the GitLab Duo Agent Platform become the backbone of GitLab's AI features. A Senior Engineering Manager currently leads our group on an interim basis and will support your onboarding and remain a close partner afterward. This is an opportunity to lead a consequential group as AI changes how software is built.
