As a Support Engineer at Git Lab, you’ll sit at the intersection of Support and Engineering, helping customers solve complex, real-world challenges running Git Lab in diverse and demanding environments. You’ll be embedded in the Engineering department, working directly with customers as they hit edge cases, digging into Linux systems, logs, and our Ruby on Rails codebase to troubleshoot performance issues, reproduce bugs, and contribute merge requests that fix problems at the source.

You’ll also improve our documentation, refine support processes in our issue tracker, and collaborate closely with Product, Development, Infrastructure, Customer Success, and Sales so that customer feedback directly shapes our roadmap. In your first year, you’ll build deep expertise across a range of Git Lab implementations, strengthen our ability to keep customers productive on both self-managed and  (SaaS), and help create tools and content that make support more efficient and effective for the entire team.
