　　An overview of the role:

　　We're looking for an experienced Senior Product Manager to drive the roadmap for Remote Development and the Web IDE at GitLab. This team owns some of the newest capabilities in the GitLab platform and is responsible for leading the way in streamlining how developers work on a daily basis.

　　The IDE group is responsible for maturing the newly GA Remote Development Workspaces and expanding the capabilities of the Web IDE, our browser-based editor that allows development to happen without any locally configured software. You will collaborate closely with peer teams Code Review, Source Code, and Editor Extensions. This functionality within GitLab also includes capabilities such as workspace configuration and deployment, integration with the GitLab Agent for Kubernetes, the third-party extension marketplace in the Web IDE, Web IDE code search, Web IDE MR creation, and many others. These areas of the product are focused on making it easy and intuitive to start developing without relying on locally installed and configured software, ensuring that developers can work in a secure, efficient, and compliant way.

　　You’ll lead cross-functionally with other GitLab stages (https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/product/categories/#devops-stages) to ensure our teams can drive our core differentiators (https://about.gitlab.com/why-gitlab/) . You’ll enable GitLab to lead from a position of product maturity while contributing to the strategic direction of the IDE and Remote Development capabilities, maintaining our lead and enabling our customers to ship software, faster.

　　What you’ll do

　　Drive the product direction

　　You will define a product roadmap and public direction pages for where the product will go in the next 12-24 months.

　　You will work closely with internal development, technical field, marketing, and other product teams to continue to mature Remote Development and the Web IDE.

　　You will make decisions that consider the overall ROI to GitLab as a business.

　　You will become an expert on GitLab as a platform. GitLab is a broad product and you’ll understand how what you work on fits with everything else in the platform.

　　Manage the product life cycle

　　You will work closely with your counterparts to define monthly product releases.

　　You will prioritize what the group works on in terms of features and which ones come next.

　　You will ensure that we translate user demands to features that make them happy, but keep the product UI clean and the codebase maintainable

　　Become an expert on your target users and their problems

　　You will regularly engage with users and talk to them to understand what their goals are, where they struggle, and what problems they care most about.

　　You will create compelling demos of your product in action and contextualize the problems you are solving.

　　You will teach others internally how to position the product, describe the value it provides to target users, and work with initial customers as they get onboarded.

　　You will be willing to keep up with the maturing DevSecOps market, finding ways to collaborate well beyond the scope of the IDE group.
