The intelligent orchestration platform for DevSecOps, enabling teams and agents to ship trusted software at enterprise scale. Backed by General Catalyst and Khosla.
About the role
As a Staff Enterprise Architect, you will design and evolve how GitLab's internal systems are configured, integrate, perform and scale to support a rapidly growing business. Reporting to the Director, Enterprise Architecture and AI Intelligent Automation, you will apply all four architecture lenses (business, application, data, and technology) to the systems in your scope, treating AI as a standing consideration inside each rather than a separate workstream.
What they're looking for
- Design for maintainability and supportability: clear service ownership, observability and error handling in integrations, documented runbooks, and realistic total cost of ownership
- Establish integration and data contracts between systems, so downstream consumers aren't adversely affected by upstream schema changes
- In collaboration with Security, design authentication, authorization, and service-to-service access for the systems in your scope, applying the standards they and the Director set
- Monitor and optimize cloud and platform consumption, covering right-sizing, license and API-limit management, and eliminating spend on unused or duplicated capacity
- Co-author those designs with engineering teams and stay with them through build, making the call on trade-offs, resolving ambiguity in the spec, and unblocking decisions so delivery doesn't stall
- Take the hardest technical problems in your domains personally, building proofs of concept when a decision cannot be settled on paper, including the production issues no one else has been able to root-cause
