Senior Solutions Architect

As a Solutions Architect, you’ll be a trusted advisor to our customers across Latin America with an emphasis on Brazil. You will help them understand how GitLab’s DevSecOps platform can solve real software delivery challenges and drive measurable business outcomes. You’ll own the technical side of the sales cycle, from discovery and value stream assessment through proof of concept and workshops, guiding customers as they evaluate and adopt GitLab. Based in Brazil and fluent in English and Portuguese (with Spanish strongly preferred), you’ll work closely with a regional sales director, account executives across enterprise, mid-market and public sector segments. You will work alongside another Solutions Architect in Brazil, while reporting to a senior manager in the US. In your first year, you’ll focus on building deep relationships with customers, shaping technical strategy for key accounts, and becoming the go-to technical advocate for GitLab in the region.

Some examples of our projects:

• Running Value Stream Assessments for strategic accounts to identify where GitLab can improve their software development lifecycle

• Ability to design and present technical solutions that address customer requirements, including running proofs of concept, workshops, and technical evaluations
• Skill in building trusted relationships with customers and internal partners, and representing customer needs back to Product, Engineering, Sales, and Marketing

Our Solutions Architect team partners with Sales to help customers across Brazil and the rest of Latin America to understand, adopt, and gain value from the GitLab DevSecOps platform. You’ll join a small, collaborative group that includes one other Solutions Architect in Brazil, a regional sales director, and Account Executives focused on enterprise, mid-market and public sector customers, reporting to a Senior Manager based in the US. The team works in an all-remote, highly asynchronous way across time zones, combining deep technical expertise with consultative engagement to guide customers through evaluations, proof of concepts, and strategic value stream assessments. Current priorities include scaling support for a growing LATAM customer base, strengthening GitLab advocacy within customer organizations, and sharing field feedback back into Product, Engineering, and Marketing to continuously improve our platform and customer outcomes.
