Distinguished Engineer, Agentic SDLC & Non‑Linear Productivity

About the role

US and Canada. The most senior individual technical seat at GitLab, and the posting says the scope may be set at Distinguished or Fellow depending on what you bring.

The work is finding classes of problem that AI agents can own outright, proving it on GitLab's own engineering first, then turning what survives into product for millions of users. It sits across Architecture, Product, Infrastructure and Data and ML, so the influence is lateral rather than managerial.
