Remote, United Kingdom

Our take: The real work here is building and running the trigger system that links events across GitLab and third-party tools to autonomous AI workflows, at scale and highly available, on a small async-first team.

If you like building the quiet plumbing that makes AI features actually fire at the right moment, this is your kind of problem: a trigger system linking events across GitLab and tools like Jira and Slack to autonomous Duo Flows. You will own real decisions on a small, close-knit, async-first team, shipping while the technology under your feet keeps shifting. It suits someone who is energised by scale, high availability, and learning new AI capabilities faster than the docs can keep up.
