Manager, People Business Partners

As the Manager, People Business Partners, Engineering, you'll be a strategic partner to engineering leaders, VP/Sr. Director level, helping them navigate change, mature their organizations, and build a healthy, high-performance culture. You'll focus on engineering-specific challenges such as evolving job architecture and leveling, supporting leadership transitions at the executive level, and driving consistency in how we develop, calibrate, and grow engineering talent across distributed teams. In this role, you'll work on a global scale, with a particular focus on supporting leaders globally, and you'll play a key part in making complex transformations feel clear and manageable for both leaders and their teams. You'll report into the PBP organization and work closely with peers like current and former Engineering PBPs to shape how GitLab’s engineering function operates as we continue to grow. You’ll be expected to quickly build trust with senior engineering leaders, lean into engineering-wide processes like calibrations and offsites, and help bring cohesion to a leadership team that spans tenured GitLab team members and newer leaders. This is a good fit if you enjoy working in a fast-paced tech environment, are comfortable with ambiguity and change, and want to make a visible impact on how engineering teams are structured, supported, and set up to deliver results.
