About this role

GitLab is hiring for a Senior Software Engineer, Security Factory: Code Security role. See the official posting for full details.

Requirements

  • Experience building your own LLM tooling, such as a harness, an agent pipeline, or evaluations, with the judgment to know when output is trustworthy and when it isn't
  • Substantial professional experience writing and testing production code in a systems language, particularly Go and/or Rust, with depth in at least one. We use both, plus Ruby on the remediation side and Python for some…
  • Familiarity with package managers and dependency management in one or more language ecosystems, such as npm, Maven, pip, Bundler, or Cargo. Experience building tooling around them is better still.
  • Demonstrated application security experience, such as vulnerability research, secure code review, or writing detection rules, and fluency with vulnerability classes (OWASP Top 10, CWE) and the software supply chain
  • A track record of taking ownership of ambiguous problems and shipping with minimal guidance, with the self-motivation and organizational skills suited to a remote, largely asynchronous environment
  • Demonstrated capacity to communicate clearly and concisely about technical problems, and to write design proposals that bring a team to a decision
  • Experience evaluating AI-driven detection against labeled data, including measuring false positives and missed findings
  • Experience with performance optimization at scale
