As a Senior Ecosystem Sales Manager in Japan, you will build and grow a high-impact partner ecosystem that helps GitLab customers adopt, implement, and expand their use of our DevSecOps platform. You will focus on strategic partners including hyperscalers (AWS and Google), system integrators, solution providers, and managed services partners, driving joint solutions, go-to-market motions, and pipeline generation that translate into measurable Net ARR and services growth. In this role, you will act as a key connector between partners and GitLab’s field sales organisation, collaborating closely with account executives, area sales managers, and regional leadership to ensure partners are integrated throughout the sales cycle. You will own strategic partner planning, from business plans and account mapping to governance and QBRs, and be expected in your first year to establish a strong partner network, create repeatable joint motions, and consistently forecast and report on cloud-related ecosystem performance.
The Ecosystem Sales team is responsible for building, enabling, and growing a high-performing partner network that extends GitLab’s AI-powered DevSecOps platform into the market. As a Senior Ecosystem Sales Manager, you’ll be part of a distributed, all-remote team that works asynchronously across regions and closely with GitLab’s direct sales, marketing, and customer success teams to drive joint pipeline, NetARR, and services adoption through hyperscalers, system integrators, solution providers, and managed services partners. The team is focused on deepening strategic relationships with partners like AWS and Google, co-creating solutions and joint go-to-market motions, and scaling a repeatable ecosystem model in Japan while maintaining GitLab’s vendor-neutral positioning with cloud providers.
