Demo Architect, EMEA

An overview of this role

As a Demo Architect, you'll help GitLab teams and customers get hands-on with our platform faster and with less friction. This role reports to the Senior Director of our Solutions Architecture Center of Excellence, with day-to-day partnership from the current team lead. You'll build and improve the tools, applications, and infrastructure that support field team demos, workshops, trials, and internal test environments across the field.

What makes this role unique is its mix of software engineering, infrastructure, and customer-facing collaboration. You'll work like an engineer for much of the role, while also partnering with Solutions Architects, Account Executives, Customer Success, and others to make sure what we build is practical, usable, and aligned to how the field sells.

On the Demo Architect team at GitLab, we support the field’s demo, workshop, and trial experiences by maintaining shared tooling and the infrastructure behind internal demo and test instances used across GitLab. We’re a small, globally distributed group that collaborates asynchronously across regions and adapts quickly to changing needs, with a current focus on scaling automation, enabling more self-service, extending support to partners, and maintaining reliable internal infrastructure.
