Our take: The real work here is turning free and cold GitLab users into paying customers from scratch, owning the full cycle and helping build the acquisition playbook as you go.

If you love the hunt of net-new business, this is your whole world: a territory of free and trial users to turn into paying customers, start to finish. You will build business cases from scratch, run consultative discovery, and help write the very playbook the team uses to win. It rewards people who own their results, test their own ideas, and enjoy learning a genuinely technical product well enough to be credible.
