Senior Backend Engineer, Gitlab Delivery; Runway at Gitlab

This role is designed for a senior backend engineer who enjoys the intersection of software development and infrastructure. You are likely an expert in **Go** with a strong handle on **Kubernetes and Helm**, as you will be responsible for building the tooling that allows thousands of organizations to deploy and scale their own instances of the platform. Experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) and PostgreSQL is essential, while familiarity with Ruby is a significant plus. The position offers the ultimate flexibility of a **fully remote, asynchronous culture** across the Americas or EMEA regions. As a senior member of the Delivery team, you will have a direct impact on enterprise-scale architecture and mentor other engineers. The package includes notable perks like equity compensation, an employee stock purchase plan, flexible PTO, and a dedicated growth and development fund to support your career progression. **You might be a good fit if you:** * Have advanced proficiency in Go and experience running production services on major cloud providers (GCP, AWS, or Azure). * Enjoy building automation pipelines and observability tooling (Prometheus/Grafana) rather than just standard feature development. * Are comfortable working in a high-performance, remote environment where clear documentation and asynchronous collaboration are the norms. * Want to influence how large-scale enterprise software is packaged, installed, and upgraded globally.
