Job Requirements

Experience in B2B software sales focused on software development tools, DevSecOps, or application lifecycle management solutions, with a strong emphasis on selling with and through strategic partners such as global systems integrators (GSIs) across complex enterprise accounts.
Knowledge of the GSI and cloud ecosystem in North America and the broader AMER region, with the ability to build and deepen relationships with partners like Accenture, TCS, Capgemini, Deloitte, and other major GSIs to co-create joint offerings and go-to-market motions.
Demonstrated ability to engage and influence senior stakeholders at both partners and customers, bringing strong executive presence, negotiation skills, and a focus on driving mutual business outcomes.
Excellent communication, presentation, and writing skills, and a collaborative working style that enables you to partner effectively with field sales, alliances, marketing, and technical teams across regions and time zones.
Strength in managing a partner-focused book of business, including forecasting, pipeline inspection, and reporting on key partner performance indicators, with proficiency in Salesforce and similar tools to manage accounts and opportunities.
Comfort working in an all-remote, asynchronous, values-driven environment as a self-directed “manager of one,” with the ability to break work into clear milestones, collaborate across distributed teams, travel within the AMER region as needed for partner, customer, and GitLab events, and co-create the future of our Ecosystem organization as we scale our GSI partnerships.
Fluency in English, with additional Spanish or other regional language skills in the AMER region considered a plus but not required.
