Senior Manager, Technical Program Management

Remote

Our take: The real work here is building a brand new program management function by coaching a team of TPMs and influencing engineering and product leaders without direct control.

You would lead a team of technical program managers inside a brand new PMO, shaping how program management works across GitLab from something close to a blank page. The joy here is coaching people, building trust across engineering and product, and setting a direction that outlasts any single project. If you love growing others and building a function rather than just running one, this is your kind of room.
