Remote

Our take: The real work here is building the agent platforms, MCP servers, and infrastructure that let GitLab's customer experience teams safely hand real work to AI, then documenting it and handing it off so it runs without you.

If you have made coding agents a real part of how you ship, and you want to design the harness, MCP servers, and platforms that let whole teams hand work to AI safely, this is built for you. You will own production Python and TypeScript, build the first version with the people doing the work, then hand it off so it runs without you. It rewards leverage over heroics and genuinely cares that no tool depends on one person.
