An overview of this role

As a Staff Backend Engineer in GitLab's Performance Enablement group, you'll define and build the self-serve platform that lets GitLab engineering teams own their performance. You'll give internal teams the tooling and guidance to run performance tests, analyze results, track trends, and meet their own performance requirements throughout the development lifecycle. We're a platform, not a consulting service: we build capabilities that teams use independently to deliver a reliable, performant GitLab to customers. In this hands-on technical leadership role, you'll work with the Engineering Manager to shape a multi-quarter vision and roadmap, bringing your performance engineering expertise to influence teams across research and development (R&D).
