Senior Frontend Engineer (Vue), Create: Repository Management

Professional experience with Vue.js or another modern JavaScript web framework, such as React, Angular, or Ember, and experience using GraphQL for application programming interface integration and data management.

A solid understanding of semantic hypertext markup language, cascading style sheets, core JavaScript concepts, responsive design, accessibility standards, and frontend performance best practices.

Experience solving complex policy, permissions, or rules-based problems in web applications and making that complexity feel simple and usable.

Experience writing frontend unit and acceptance tests with tools such as Jest, Karma, Jasmine, Mocha, ava, or tape, and familiarity with the testing pyramid.

A track record of raising the bar on how your team or group uses artificial intelligence coding agents in a large, complex monorepo, including scoping tasks, reviewing generated code, and knowing when to take direct control, paired with a clear view of where these tools fall short and how to work around it.

Experience using Git in a professional environment and familiarity with collaborative code review processes.

Clear written and spoken English communication skills, including the ability to influence without authority and share useful status updates in a remote, asynchronous environment.

The ability to manage priorities independently, work through ambiguity, take ownership, and seek guidance for decisions that are difficult to reverse.

The functional team works across Europe and North America, supporting both synchronous and asynchronous collaboration. It includes six engineers, with one frontend engineer today, so this role offers a meaningful opportunity to coach and mentor others and provide technical leadership in the frontend domain. We work closely with Code Review and Gitaly, alongside sibling teams covering Repository Sync & Interop, Source Code Experience, and Repository Scale, Performance & Git Infrastructure. We're maturing GitLab's branch protection offering while maintaining availability, reliability, and stability through bug fixes and focused technical debt work. Our roadmap includes Branch Rules, Codeowners, merge strategy options, and artificial intelligence-powered repository management and configuration.
