Gears of Leo AB

Stockholm•Posted: Jun 23•Deadline: Aug 31

ABOUT THE ROLE We are seeking a hands-on, technically fluent engineer to drive the adoption of AI across our entire development organization - someone who finds the friction in how teams work and turns it into automated, AI-powered solutions. As our AI Enablement Engineer, you will embed with engineering and product teams to identify where AI can remove repetitive, manual work, then build and ship the solutions that make it happen. You will work closely with our AI Efficiency Architects and AI Evangelist to turn high-level AI strategy into concrete, measurable wins on the ground. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys variety, moves fast, and gets real satisfaction from seeing their work adopted and relied upon by teams across the company. Your Mission Accelerate how the entire development organization works by finding high-impact use cases for AI, building the solutions that automate them, and spreading those wins so they scale across teams. YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR: Use Case Discovery: work directly with engineering and product teams to map their workflows, spot repetitive or slow processes, and identify the highest-impact opportunities for AI-driven automation across the development organization. Rapid Prototyping & Delivery: act as a builder - lead the technical design and implementation of working solutions such as prompt workflows, lightweight agents, scripts, and integrations that prove value fast, then partnering with the AI Efficiency Architects to harden anything that needs to run in production. Reusable Enablement Assets: create templates, playbooks, and repeatable patterns so a proven AI win can spread from one team to many without bespoke work each time. Adoption & Measurement: drive genuine adoption of AI tooling across teams and tie every solution back to concrete outcomes - time saved, throughput, and delivery speed - so impact is visible and quantifiable to leadership. Feedback to the Platform: surface recurring needs and friction back to the AI Efficiency Architects, so the internal AI gateway and tooling evolve toward what teams actually need. Technical Mentorship & Influence: mentor senior engineers on AI best practices and influence engineering roadmaps. OUR SUCCESSFUL CANDIDATE WILL HAVE THE FOLLOWING: ESSENTIAL SKILLS Staff-Level Engineering Foundations: 8+ years of professional software engineering experience (Java, Python, Go, or TypeScript) with a proven track record of delivering complex, distributed systems in a production environment. Production-Ready AI Expertise: Deep, hands-on experience moving AI from a cool prototype to a real-world tool. You don’t just write basic prompts - you know how to build reliable agents and RAG workflows, and you understand the practical side of LLMs, like managing costs, speed, and context limits to make tools actually work for production. Strategic Problem-Solving: You have a strong bias for action and can take a vague problem and turn it into a working solution fast. While you focus on delivering value quickly rather than chasing perfection, you always think big - building smart, reusable tools that fix root problems for hundreds of developers, not just one team. Collaboration & Communication: excellent interpersonal skills and the ability to work alongside many different teams, understand their needs, and bring them along on the adoption journey. SDLC/DevOps Familiarity: working knowledge of the tools that underpin the software delivery lifecycle (e.g., GitLab/GitHub, CI/CD pipelines, source control) so that solutions fit naturally into how teams already work. Self-Direction: capacity to manage a varied portfolio of work across multiple teams, prioritize for impact, and deliver with minimal supervision.

Fortune and Fortune Media IP Limited are not affiliated with, and do not endorse products or services of GitLab. STAFF FORWARD DEPLOYED ENGINEER, AGENTIC SDLC AN OVERVIEW OF THIS ROLE GitLab’s Forward Deployed Engineering team is a field-situated product engineering function focused on strategic customer outcomes, artificial intelligence (AI) adoption, and direct contributions to GitLab’s product. This isn't a traditional field engineering, solutions architecture, or professional services role. As a Staff Forward Deployed Engineer, you'll work closely with customers while maintaining the technical standards and contribution discipline of a Staff-level product engineer. You'll work where strategic customer urgency, complex technical ambiguity, and GitLab product execution intersect. You'll partner directly with strategic customers and teams across Product, Engineering, Support, Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), Solutions Architecture (SA), Customer Success Architecture (CSA), Customer Success Management (CSM), and Professional Services. You'll diagnose and resolve high-impact adoption blockers, contribute production-quality fixes and features, and turn what you learn into repeatable patterns for GitLab and its customers. WHY THIS ROLE EXISTS Strategic customers sometimes encounter challenges that are too broad, deep, urgent, or cross-functional for any single team to own from start to finish. These challenges may involve product gaps, performance degradation, scale bottlenecks, AI governance, adoption blockers, architectural constraints, Git usage patterns, continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) complexity, application programming interface (API) automation, security requirements, or operational instability. Forward Deployed Engineering provides technical stewardship in these moments. The team doesn't simply observe, report, or escalate. You'll engage directly, diagnose the underlying technical problem, collaborate with the right teams, contribute code or technical solutions where appropriate, and transition the outcome into normal ownership once the customer is stable and the learning can be reused. WHAT YOU’LL DO PRODUCT CONTRIBUTION * Contribute production-quality code to GitLab’s product and adjacent systems. * Develop bug fixes, features, integrations, tooling, and performance improvements when strategic customer outcomes require direct engineering work. * Work within GitLab’s product and engineering processes, including issue discovery, merge request creation, testing, review, documentation, and maintainability. * Partner with Product and Engineering so customer-driven solutions support long-term product direction rather than becoming one-off customizations. * Turn blockers discovered in the field into durable product improvements, reference architectures, documentation, and repeatable implementation patterns. STRATEGIC TECHNICAL STEWARDSHIP * Engage with strategically important customers when adoption, retention, executive confidence, or public trust is materially at risk. * Diagnose complex problems across GitLab product behavior, customer architecture, Git internals, CI/CD workflows, API usage, observability, infrastructure, networking, and cloud environments. * Coordinate across Product, Engineering, SRE, Support, SA, CSA, CSM, Professional Services, and customer technical teams to drive resolution from discovery through handoff. * Provide recommendations grounded in data, traces, and systems analysis to improve GitLab usage, workflows, automation, and architecture. * Create durable outcomes without establishing permanent dependency on Forward Deployed Engineering. AI ADOPTION AND AGENTIC SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT LIFECYCLE * Drive governed, measurable, and production-oriented adoption of GitLab Duo Agent Platform with strategic customers. * Identify and resolve AI adoption blockers involving governance, usage controls, auditability, security, compliance, operating models, workflow design, and integrations. * Develop customer-safe adoption patterns for the agentic software development lifecycle (SDLC), AI-assisted development, intent-based review, AI governance, and human-in-the-loop software delivery. * Partner with Product, Engineering, Field, and Customer Success teams to turn AI adoption learning into reusable guidance and product improvements. THOUGHT LEADERSHIP * Create technical narratives grounded in customer experience and product reality that can help shape the industry’s approach. * Contribute to Well-Architected Frameworks, whitepapers, webinars, reference architectures, technical strategy memos, and adoption frameworks. * Guide ideas through discovery, formulation, validation, amplification, and adoption across GitLab. * Partner with SA, CSA, Product, Engineering, Marketing, Product Marketing Management, CSM, Support, and executive stakeholders to make technical thought leadership a shared company capability. WHAT YOU’LL BRING * Staff-level experience building, operating, or improving complex production software systems. * Experience contributing to large, mature product codebases with high standards for testing, maintainability, performance, and security. * Strong Ruby on Rails or Go experience and the ability to contribute directly to GitLab’s product and adjacent systems. * Experience with AI-assisted software development, agentic workflows, AI governance, model evaluation, context management, prompt and workflow design, or AI adoption in enterprise environments. * Experience diagnosing complex system behavior across application code, data stores, infrastructure, observability, networking, APIs, and customer usage patterns. * Deep knowledge of modern DevSecOps workflows, including Git, merge requests, CI/CD, security controls, compliance needs, and enterprise software delivery. * Experience working with strategic customers or senior technical stakeholders in ambiguous, high-impact situations. * The ability to coordinate across product, engineering, field, and customer teams without formal authority. * Strong written communication and sound judgment, including the ability to create technical narratives and distinguish reusable product work from customer-specific customization. STRONGLY PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS * Direct experience with GitLab as a platform, including GitLab.com, GitLab Dedicated, or GitLab Self-Managed. * Production experience with Ruby on Rails, Go, PostgreSQL, Redis, Sidekiq, Vue, TypeScript, Kubernetes, Docker, Linux, or observability tools. * Deep familiarity with Git internals, repository performance, large-scale Git usage patterns, or GitLab Runner behavior. * Experience creating technical thought-leadership materials, such as whitepapers, technical talks, architecture frameworks, requests for comments, public technical writing, or internal strategy documents. * A background in performance engineering, site reliability engineering, platform engineering, infrastructure engineering, or distributed systems. * Experience working in open source or highly asynchronous engineering environments. TECHNOLOGIES AND DOMAINS Directly relevant technologies and domains include: * Ruby on Rails * Go * AI-assisted development and the agentic SDLC * PostgreSQL * Redis and Sidekiq * Git internals * GitLab CI/CD and Runner architecture * Kubernetes and containers * Terraform * Linux, networking, observability, and performance analysis * Vue and TypeScript * APIs and automation * DevSecOps governance, security, and compliance WHAT THIS ROLE IS NOT This role isn't: * A generic field engineering role. * A proof-of-concept factory. * A replacement for Solutions Architecture, Customer Success Architecture, Customer Success Management, Professional Services, Support, SRE, Product, or Engineering. * A customer-specific customization function. * Unbilled Professional Services. * A requirements-gathering role that only escalates to Product. * An AI evangelism role disconnected from product execution. SUCCESS MEASURES Success in this role may include: * Stabilizing strategic customer adoption or retention risks. * Fixing product bugs or contributing features. * Removing AI adoption blockers for strategic accounts. * Creating reusable implementation patterns and transitioning them to long-term owners. * Producing or enabling Well-Architected Frameworks, whitepapers, webinars, or technical narratives. * Resolving cross-functional customer challenges without creating permanent dependency on Forward Deployed Engineering. * Equipping Product, Engineering, Support, CSA, CSM, Professional Services, and SA teams with better guidance based on learning from the field. * Increasing adoption and effective use of GitLab capabilities, especially GitLab Duo and GitLab Duo Agent Platform, in targeted accounts. ABOUT THE TEAM The Forward Deployed Engineering team connects strategic customer needs with GitLab product execution. The team works directly with customers and across GitLab to resolve complex adoption challenges, contribute durable product improvements, and create reusable technical guidance. Its goal is to stabilize urgent situations, improve the product, and transition ongoing ownership to the appropriate team rather than create a permanent dependency.
