Senior Backend Engineer, AI Engineering: AI Coding

What you’ll do

Design and build the trigger system that links GitLab events—including code pushes, merge request and issue changes, CI/CD results, and deployments—as well as third‑party events from tools like Jira, Jenkins, and Slack, to the AI‑powered Duo Flows that act on them. Contribute to the broader event platform, the core infrastructure that many of GitLab’s AI features rely on to know when and how to run.
