You will lead high-impact incidents and investigations, drive continuous improvements in defense, detection and response capabilities, and help scale security operations through automation and intelligent workflows. Operating within a 24/7 global environment (follow the sun model), you will own incidents end-to-end - from detection and triage through containment, eradication, and recovery - while partnering cross-functionally to strengthen GitLab’s overall security posture. A key aspect of this role is leveraging automation and AI-driven approaches to improve detection fidelity, accelerate investigations, and reduce response times.

You will help shape how modern tooling and data are applied to stay ahead of evolving adversary tactics.
