Manager, Support Engineering (AMER)

An overview of this role

Like other managers at GitLab, you'll see your team as your product. You'll spend your time hiring and developing world-class Support Engineers who deliver exceptional technical support while continuously improving how your team solves problems. GitLab is working through it’s own AI transformation so you’ll be a leader in designing and implementing AI strategy for our Support team. As a Support Manager, you shape the customer support experience in your region.

You'll balance direct customer relationships with the work of scaling your team, improving internal processes, adopting AI, and collaborating across departments to ship tools and solutions that make support more efficient. You'll help your team become self-sufficient, take ownership of complex issues from initial contact through resolution, and create a psychologically safe environment where people grow.

We are distributed globally across the AMER, EMEA, and APAC regions and own the customer support experience for GitLab. We work on support tickets, dig into code and logs to troubleshoot issues, and collaborate across departments to resolve customer challenges. Our team operates asynchronously with regular pairing sessions, one-on-ones, and Slack conversations that keep us connected. We create an environment where Support Engineers can grow and do their best work.
