Overview of the Role

As an Ecosystem Solutions Architect, you'll be a trusted advisor to GitLab 's partners, helping them understand how GitLab 's DevSecOps platform can power differentiated, services-led solutions and generate repeatable, partner-sourced revenue. You'll support the Ecosystem Sales Managers, whose role is to work with field account teams to achieve their revenue goals by leveraging partners to scale the quantity, value, and strategic relevance of deals.

Like all GitLab Solutions Architects, you are a trusted technical advisor who drives and manages the technology evaluation and validation stages, speaks about technology in industry-standard terms rather than GitLab -specific language, and creates reusable technical assets that scale across the region. The differentiator in this seat is the GSI lens: you build with and through the integrator, not only for an end customer.

What you'll do

• Collaborate with Ecosystem Sales Managers and partner sales leaders to shape and execute Partner Activation Plans that drive partner-sourced pipeline and GitLab adoption.
• Own the technical aspects of partner activation, including building and delivering demos, reference architectures, and workshops that support contribution, commitment, and capability activation.
• Serve as the Directly Responsible Individual on partner technical activation plans, ensuring technical risks and gaps are identified, addressed, and aligned to mutual GitLab , partner, and customer outcomes.
• Build and maintain strong relationships wit
