Senior Product Manager, Plan

About the Role

The Plan stage is reimagining how development teams organize, coordinate, and execute their work. The Core Planning team you'll lead is at the heart of this transformation, owning the foundational workflows and mechanics that enable teams to plan effectively at scale. Working closely with engineering partners and product designers, your team is responsible for simplifying how work items (issues, epics, and tickets) are configured and coordinated, while simultaneously building trustworthy AI-powered agentic functionalities that free humans from repetitive planning tasks so they can focus on strategy and intent. You'll be tackling some of the most interesting challenges in DevOps: moving teams beyond traditional agile estimation guessing games toward real data-driven capacity planning, connecting business outcomes to actual team velocity, and scaling planning workflows across organizations with hundreds of developers. The team operates asynchronously across distributed regions and collaborates closely with engineering (led by your EM counterpart), design, and the broader Plan stage initiatives focused on knowledge management and intelligent automation. This is an opportunity to shape how millions of developers work together, replacing manual, repetitive planning mechanics with intelligent systems that amplify human decision-making.   Remote-GlobalHow GitLab will support you
