About the role
- Senior Backend Engineer (AI) shaping the core infrastructure at GitLab to enhance CI/CD workflows. Collaborating on AI integration for improved performance and usability in high-demand environments.
Responsibilities
- Collaborate with Engineering, Product, and UX partners to refine priorities: where we can move faster, where we’re missing data, and where there’s whitespace to innovate.
- Contribute to defining what success looks like across our AI agents, ensuring we’re not just shipping, but learning from how features perform in production.
- Keep a close eye on the competitive landscape and emerging AI-native DevOps tools, helping us understand what it takes to keep GitLab CI best-in-class in an increasingly agentic world.
- Design, build, and operate backend features that make GitLab CI fast, reliable, and easy to use at scale.
- Implement AI-powered and agentic CI capabilities that integrate with GitLab’s Duo Agent Platform.
- Instrument, monitor, and improve CI systems using data, observability, and safe rollout practices.
- Write secure, well-tested Ruby on Rails code in our monolith, improving existing features while reducing technical debt.
- Collaborate cross-functionally with Product, UX, and Infrastructure, mentoring others and raising engineering standards across the Verify stage.
Requirements
- Strong Ruby on Rails backend experience in a large, production codebase.
- In-depth experience building and operating AI-powered backend features in production.
- A data- and observability-driven approach to diagnosing issues, improving reliability, and validating impact.
- Clear written and verbal communication, with a collaborative, mentoring mindset in a remote, async environment.
- Hands-on experience building, running, and debugging high-traffic production systems, ideally in CI, workflow orchestration, or adjacent infrastructure-heavy domains.
- Nice to have: Experience with AI agents or agentic frameworks (for example, LangChain or similar technologies) and building agentic workflows in production environments.
- Strong PostgreSQL skills, including data modeling, query tuning, and scaling large tables through proactive performance investigation and remediation.
