An overview of this role

As a Staff Forward Deployed Engineer at GitLab, you will work at the intersection of customer outcomes, product direction, and hands-on engineering. This role is focused on strategic accounts in the AMER region, where you will help customers adopt GitLab and the GitLab Duo Agent Platform in complex enterprise environments, including self-managed, regulated, and constrained deployments. You will guide deep technical discovery, design practical adoption paths, and build reusable solutions that help customers move from early platform use into broader CI/CD, security, compliance, and AI-enabled workflows.

This is not a traditional consulting role centered on one-off delivery. Instead, you will use customer issues to create durable technical assets, shape architecture patterns, and influence upstream product and engineering decisions when field needs point to a broader solution. Your work will help reduce time to value for strategic customers while improving how GitLab scales adoption across similar environments.

Some examples of our projects:

• Building a regulated-environment deployment accelerator for GitLab Duo Agent Platform in self-managed or constrained environments
• Authoring reusable reference architectures for AI Gateway, identity, runners, network boundaries, model connectivity, and governance controls

What you’ll do

• Conduct deep technical discovery in selected strategic accounts to assess platform readiness, evaluate constraints, and identify high-value adoption opportunities across GitLab and GitLab Duo Agent Platform.
• Lead architecture and delivery design for complex enterprise environments where platform migration, regulated requirements, and product boundaries intersect.
• Partner with customer stakeholders and GitLab account teams to prioritize use cases based on business impact, technical feasibility, repeatability, and long-term platform value.
• Design and build bounded proofs, prototypes, deployment patterns, and reusable accelerators across source code management, CI/CD, security, compliance, and AI-enabled workflows.
• Architect self-managed and enterprise deployments, including runners, access controls, network boundaries, observability, AI Gateway, model connectivity, and governance controls.
• Turn recurring field patterns into reusable assets such as runbooks, templates, design notes, technical guidance, product briefs, and reference architectures that can be used across accounts.
• Contribute code, technical designs, or architecture changes when strategically necessary, in partnership with product and engineering, to address blockers that should be solved upstream.
• Travel as needed for strategic customer engagements, architecture workshops, and team coordination, with expected travel up to 50%.

What you’ll bring

• Experience in software engineering, platform architecture, forward deployed engineering, technical consulting, or similar customer-facing engineering roles.
• Strong software engineering fundamentals, including the ability to read, reason about, and contribute to production systems, ideally with experience in Ruby on Rails and/or Go.
• Strong systems design and software architecture skills, with experience evaluating APIs, asynchronous workflows, CI/CD systems, security boundaries, scalability, and operational tradeoffs.
• Hands-on experience with GitLab CI/CD, pipeline design, YAML, runners, and GitLab APIs.
• Experience with infrastructure as code and enterprise deployment tooling such as Terraform, Ansible, Helm, or similar approaches.
• Working knowledge of large language models, agentic patterns, tool orchestration, and the practical limits of AI systems in production environments.
• A track record of creating reusable technical assets that outlive a single engagement, along with strong written and verbal communication skills for technical design and architecture guidance.
• Comfort leading conversations with senior stakeholders across security, compliance, engineering, platform, and business teams, especially in ambiguous enterprise environments.

About the team

The Staff Forward Deployed Engineer works closely with teams across Customer Success, Solutions Architecture, product, and engineering to solve hard adoption problems in enterprise customer environments. We focus on high-leverage technical work for strategic customers, especially when standard approaches do not fully fit the environment or the adoption challenge.

We are especially valuable in situations where self-managed deployment models, security and compliance requirements, migration complexity, or AI platform adoption create barriers that standard approaches do not fully address. Success on our team comes from strong technical judgment, a bias for reuse, and the ability to balance immediate customer needs with long-term platform impact.

Automattic’s products—WordPress.com, WooCommerce, Beeper, Tumblr, Jetpack, and more—serve tens of billions of page views every month from data centers around the world. The PerfOps team exists to make those page views as quickly as possible. As a Backend Performance Engineer, you’ll dive deep into query plans, cache hit ratios, and PHP profiling data to find the milliseconds that matter at our scale. You’ll work across the full Automattic product portfolio: if it runs on our backend, it’s your playground.

This is an opportunity to do performance work where the impact is immediate and enormous. You’ll collaborate with product engineers, systems engineers, and network operations, bringing a performance-first mindset to architecture decisions, code reviews, and incident response. If you love the puzzle of why something is slow and get satisfaction from making it measurably faster, this role was made for you.

Responsibilities: 

• Identifying and eliminating backend performance bottlenecks by profiling PHP applications, analyzing MySQL/MariaDB query performance, and optimizing Memcached usage across Automattic’s products.
• Building and improving performance observability—developing dashboards, instrumentation, and automated detection that surface regressions before they reach production, and give engineering teams clear, actionable data.
• Partnering with product and platform engineers to review code and architecture through a performance lens, advocating for efficient database access patterns, caching strategies, and backend design decisions.
• Raising the performance bar across engineering by documenting best practices, contributing to internal guidelines for PHP and database performance, and mentoring teams on how to write backend code that scales.
• Proactively searching out performance issues and working to resolve them.
• Deep dives on individual sites, working alongside support staff and engineers to address customer performance issues.

Requirements: 

• Deep hands-on experience with PHP performance: you can profile a PHP application, identify hot paths, and reason about memory usage and execution time at the code level.
• Strong understanding of caching layers and strategies: you know how to design and debug Memcached (or similar) caching patterns, understand cache invalidation trade-offs, and can reason about when and where caching helps versus hides problems.
• Experience doing performance work at scale: you’ve worked on systems serving millions of requests where small inefficiencies compound into real problems, and you understand the difference between optimizing on a benchmark and optimizing under production load.
• Ability to instrument, measure, and prove: you don’t guess, you measure. You have experience building or using profiling tools, APM systems, and performance dashboards to turn hunches into data and verify that a fix actually worked.
• Excellent written communication skills: Automattic is a distributed, async-first company. You’ll need to clearly explain complex performance findings, write up proposals, and influence engineering decisions through writing, not meetings.
• Self-direction and ownership: you can identify the highest-impact performance work, prioritize it, drive it to completion, and hold yourself accountable without waiting for someone to assign it to you.
• Bonus points for hands-on experience with WordPress and WooCommerce in high-traffic production environments

Salary range: $70,000-$170,000 USD.  Please note that salary ranges are global, regardless of location, and we pay in local currency.

We are searching for high-caliber candidates with the skills and qualities to have a net positive for Automattic. Pay will reflect the potential contribution and the impact you can bring, which may, in some cases, go beyond the range stated.

This isn’t your typical work-from-home job—we are a fully-remote company with an open vacation policy. Read more about our compensation philosophy.

🚀 About the Role

When people think of streaming, they think of Netflix. For music, it’s Spotify. When they think about Product Management, they should think of us.

You’ll jump into high-impact client projects, helping post-product market fit digital-first companies tackle strategic and executional challenges. Our clients include category leaders and companies navigating growth, innovation, or transformation.

1. Solve problems for clients and for Product People.
   You’ll prioritise, zoom in and out, and make a real impact. You bring clarity to chaos and orchestrate seamless execution. You’ll manage discovery and delivery for three streams at once, internally and externally. You're comfortable with both strategy and hands-on, unglamorous work, and you know when to go deep or stay broad.
2. Work with strong personalities and diverse teams.
   You adapt to communication styles and integrate quickly, feeling like part of the team within days, not weeks. People enjoy working with you, even when you push back. You're approachable, constructive, and always professional, even when challenging unrealistic demands.
3. Serve as an Interim Product Manager. We serve post-product market-fit digital-first companies ranging from series B to publicly listed. Some are category leaders and/or leverage the latest tech trends. You’ll be driving complex cross-functional initiatives in B2C or B2B products. It can be anything from setting and reaching quarterly OKRs at a scale-up to Continuous Discovery/Jobs To Be Done (JTBD) or A/B tests elsewhere. Or unblocking stuck initiatives. 
4. Craft and communicate compelling product narratives.
   For every feature or capability, you can answer:
   • What job/problem does this solve?
   • For whom?
   • How big is the market/problem?
   • What does success look like?
   • Why does solving this matter?
   • You’ll share and help shape strategic context with clients’ CPOs, VPs, Directors, or Heads of Product.
5. Coach the next generation of PMs. Train, mentor, and delegate relentlessly to help our Associate Product Managers strengthen their skills. Manage 1-6 people depending on tenure, performance reviews, and career ambitions. Collaborate with 2-3 colleagues daily. Break down complex initiatives into manageable, quantifiable work for the team. We use the teaching hospital method (watch, do it yourself under supervision, teach others to do it). 
6. Rinse and repeat. Go on a new mission with a new client or in a new team, new domain, new product, or initiative every 3-6 months. Continue sharpening your edge and actively helping Product People's internal initiatives.

🧠 About You

• You Fix the Mess (and kind of love it).
  You arrive when things are messy, and leave behind clarity, structure, and surprisingly joyful spreadsheets. Most clients don’t bring us in during the calm; they call when it’s “uh-oh” o’clock. You don’t just handle chaos, you thrive in it and somehow make it fun (for you and them).
• Optimism as an Operating System.
  Your emotional operating system is set to “can-do.” You stay calm during meltdowns, and you deliver difficult truths with a smile and a plan. You’re relentlessly polite, cheerfully persistent, and immune to drama. Basically, if Product were a weather system, you’re the high-pressure zone that clears the storm.
• You’re Driven, Collaborative, and Charmingly Direct.
  You’re the teammate clients want back, and your ex-colleagues leave cushy roles to work with you again. You speak human, not jargon. Feedback? You give it kindly, take it well, and treat it like a cheat code for levelling up. You’re here to do excellent work, lift others up, and make the team better.
• You Context Switch like it’s a superpower.
  You can drop into an engineer’s Slack thread, jump to an exec pitch, and then sketch out a roadmap, all before your second coffee. Clients don’t always come to us at their most organised times (read: M&A, staff turnover, existential crisis). You roll with it, find the signal in the noise, and make magic across shifting priorities. At the same time, you know how to create boundaries that support effective collaboration.
• You think commercially.
  You get how businesses grow, where money comes from, and which bets matter. You speak in impact, not just input. Whether it’s retention, expansion, or efficiency, you know how to chase the outcome, measure it, and ship value without gold-plating the roadmap.

💸 Compensation & Perks

• Based on the location, tax of residence and level. The exact level is defined based on the skills and knowledge demonstrated within the hiring process, which includes an unbiased blind review (more about our hiring process).

An overview of this role

As a Staff Forward Deployed Engineer at GitLab, you will work at the intersection of customer outcomes, product direction, and hands-on engineering. This role is focused on strategic accounts, where you will help customers adopt GitLab and the GitLab Duo Agent Platform in complex enterprise environments, including self-managed, regulated, and constrained deployments. You will guide deep technical discovery, design practical adoption paths, and build reusable solutions that help customers move from early platform use into broader CI/CD, security, compliance, and AI-enabled workflows.

This is not a traditional consulting role centered on one-off delivery. Instead, you will use customer issues to create durable technical assets, shape architecture patterns, and influence upstream product and engineering decisions when field needs point to a broader solution. Your work will help reduce time to value for strategic customers while improving how GitLab scales adoption across similar environments.

Some examples of our projects:

• Building a regulated-environment deployment accelerator for GitLab Duo Agent Platform in self-managed or constrained environments
• Authoring reusable reference architectures for AI Gateway, identity, runners, network boundaries, model connectivity, and governance controls
• Identifying a geo-replication gap in a self-managed deployment, tracing it to a root cause in Gitaly or the git backend, and contributing a targeted code or design change upstream

What you'll do

Conduct deep technical discovery in selected strategic accounts to assess platform readiness, evaluate constraints, and identify high-value adoption opportunities across GitLab and GitLab Duo Agent Platform. Lead architecture and delivery design for complex enterprise environments where platform migration, regulated requirements, and product boundaries intersect. Partner with customer stakeholders and GitLab account teams to prioritize use cases based on business impact, technical feasibility, repeatability, and long-term platform value. Design and build bounded proofs, prototypes, deployment patterns, and reusable accelerators across source code management, CI/CD, security, compliance, and AI-enabled workflows. Architect self-managed and enterprise deployments, including runners, access controls, network boundaries, observability, AI Gateway, model connectivity, and governance controls. Turn recurring field patterns into reusable assets such as runbooks, templates, design notes, technical guidance, product briefs, and reference architectures that can be used across accounts. Contribute code, technical designs, or architecture changes when strategically necessary, in partnership with product and engineering, to address blockers that should be solved upstream. Travel as needed for strategic customer engagements, architecture workshops, and team coordination, with expected travel up to 50%.

What you'll bring

Experience in software engineering, platform architecture, forward deployed engineering, technical consulting, or similar customer-facing engineering roles. Strong software engineering fundamentals, including the ability to read, reason about, and contribute to production systems, ideally with experience in Ruby on Rails and/or Go. Strong systems design and software architecture skills, with experience evaluating APIs, asynchronous workflows, CI/CD systems, security boundaries, scalability, and operational tradeoffs. Hands-on experience with GitLab CI/CD, pipeline design, YAML, runners, and GitLab APIs. Experience with infrastructure as code and enterprise deployment tooling such as Terraform, Ansible, Helm, or similar approaches. Working knowledge of large language models, agentic patterns, tool orchestration, and the practical limits of AI systems in production environments. A track record of creating reusable technical assets that outlive a single engagement, along with strong written and verbal communication skills for technical design and architecture guidance. Comfort leading conversations with senior stakeholders across security, compliance, engineering, platform, and business teams, especially in ambiguous enterprise environments.

About the team

The Staff Forward Deployed Engineer works closely with teams across Customer Success, Solutions Architecture, product, and engineering to solve hard adoption problems in enterprise customer environments. We focus on high-leverage technical work for strategic customers, especially when standard approaches do not fully fit the environment or the adoption challenge.

We are especially valuable in situations where self-managed deployment models, security and compliance requirements, migration complexity, or AI platform adoption create barriers that standard approaches do not fully address. Success on our team comes from strong technical judgment, a bias for reuse, and the ability to balance immediate customer needs with long-term platform impact.

Founding CTO at Redbolt.ai 

Redbolt AI is the security and reliability layer for in-production AI systems. It’s the commercial open core evolution of NVIDIA's open source red-teaming framework, garak, and NeMo Guardrails. Redbolt builds on trusted open source technology and adds the security layer that empowers users to deploy AI at scale.

We're looking for a Founding CTO to build Redbolt into an era-defining AI technology. As the founding CTO, you’ll define initial product vision, build commercial features and an engineering team to accelerate product velocity, get closer to customers, and deepen open-source contributions to NVIDIA's Garak. 

The opportunity

The market for AI security is early but moving fast. The risks of unguarded AI systems are well-known but the infrastructure to protect against these risks don’t really exist yet.

Redbolt starts with a meaningful foundation: NVIDIA's open-source tools already have community traction and credibility. Your job is to turn that into a product and company that enterprises depend on.

If you've been looking for the right moment to build something that matters, this is it.

The role

As the technical founder, you will: 

• Defining the vision. What should this company become? What's the product roadmap that turns open-source adoption into a billion-dollar enterprise business? You'll own that strategy.
• Building the foundation. You're writing code, shipping product, and making architectural decisions that will compound for years.
• Hiring the team. You'll recruit and lead the engineers who build Redbolt alongside you.
• Partner with a CEO. Once there's traction, OCV will lead a search for a co-founder CEO to partner with you - someone to own go-to-market, fundraising, and business operations while you own product and engineering. You'll be deeply involved in selecting that person.

About you 

You're a deep technical expert in LLM security, ML engineering, or adjacent infrastructure. You understand how these systems fail and how to prevent them.

You've operated at a high level technically: staff/principal engineer, engineering lead, or founded something yourself.

You're entrepreneurial. You've been waiting for the right opportunity to build something from the ground up, with real support and resources behind you.

You have conviction about the AI security space. You've thought about what needs to exist and have opinions about how to build it.

Senior Software Engineer (Privacy)

Summary

The Wikimedia Foundation is looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join the Product Safety and Integrity team and build new security features to protect Wikipedia and our other projects. This is a very hands-on engineering role, working alongside a team of engineers and product managers to design and implement new features to protect and reassure our users and to ensure the platform remains resilient against attacks.

You are a seasoned software engineer with experience building security features in large-scale systems. You understand the importance of testing and documentation, and common pitfalls in developing secure web applications. You have a passion for the WMF mission. We operate in a highly transparent manner, and the work we do touches thousands of editors every day.

You will be working primarily on our MediaWiki platform which powers Wikipedia. As a top 10 website, we must meet stringent performance standards while addressing new security challenges such as supporting modern authentication technologies, detecting and preventing platform abuse from bots, and planning and rolling out improvements to our security architecture by defending against emerging threats.

You are responsible for:

• Helping design, develop, and deliver security features, with safety and security in mind
• Working with other engineering teams to ensure that they make safe and compliant architectural and implementation choices
• Leading by example in code review, decision-making, and team culture — fostering transparency, empathy, and collaboration
• Developing, reviewing, and deploying security features developed by the Foundation and community members
• Conducting internal and external security and privacy reviews
• Performing maintenance and addressing technical debt in security and privacy-critical components
• Providing support for application security and privacy incidents and operations

Skills and Experience:

We value the right mindset and potential over a checklist of specific experiences, and these are the traits we’ve identified that make great additions to our team so far.

• 5+ years of experience as a software engineer, ideally with focus on security or privacy
• Ability to work effectively in a modern web application – ours is mostly PHP and JavaScript
• Deep PHP experience isn’t required, if you have enough experience in engineering, and back-end web development, to learn it and be useful 
• Driving technical quality and operational excellence by defining and reinforcing standards in testing, observability, and system reliability;
• Comfortably and autonomously creating proofs of concept, writing design documents, and breaking down complex projects into actionable tasks to support less experienced team members
• Experience in developing secure software or security and privacy-related product features
• A strong interest in working with a talented security team and learning more specialist security skills such as exploiting and mitigating application-level vulnerabilities
• Ability to explain complex security issues and their implications on privacy and risk to non-technical audiences
• Sensitivity to the security and privacy challenges faced by participants in a large, international project
• Experience working in a remote, distributed team

Additionally, we’d love it if you have:

• Experience working on anti-abuse mechanisms, such as detecting bots or coordinated activity
• Previous experience building security countermeasures against attacks on technologies at the web, backend, and database level
• Experience finding and fixing security bugs and reviewing code for security gaps
• A working knowledge of threat modeling, secure design patterns and privacy by design
• Prior experience with MediaWiki or Wikimedia projects
• Contributions to open-source software
