GitLab – A $1B business where all employees work remotely

I am one of the recruiting managers here at GitLab. I would agree with @sytse that contributing to GitLab would be the strongest signal.

While we do keep the bar quite high from a technical perspective, we also do so as it relates to our values. https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/values/ With us going through this current hyper-growth phase we have to make sure that everyone who comes into GitLab aligns with these.

For Engineering hires in the month of June we averaged ~65 days to move someone all the way through the interview process.

I am more than willing to set up some time to chat with you 1:1 if you have any more questions.

Hi, I live in Japan and I'm very interested in applying for a job at GitLab. It says on your website that you aren't currently hiring in Japan. Is the situation likely to change in the future? I found this link circulating on Twitter: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/www-gitlab-com/merge_requests/... Does this mean that there will be 1-3 positions available in the near future? What can I do not to miss them?

Thanks for your time!

That's very kind of you to offer! Can I send over a few questions over email closer to the time I'll be applying? I don't see an email address in your profile, can you post your email id here? Thanks.

I am interested in working in GitLab.

Do you have some foreign engineers staying in Japan? I want to stay in japan with proper visa if necessary.

As far as I recall from their website. Japan is one of the countries they do not hire in due to what I presume to be legal reasons.

You can look for that info on https://about.gitlab.com/company/team/ As far as I can see there is 1 GitLab employee currently working from Japan.
