As an IBM Ecosystem Sales Manager on GitLab's Ecosystem team, you'll be the go-to person for your sales team when it comes to IBM deals and ecosystem integration. You'll own the IBM-led deal pipeline end to end, making sure the GitLab sales process is followed, IBM is engaged at the right moments, and every opportunity moves forward with clear next steps. You'll work closely with Sales, Partner, and Regional leadership to integrate IBM into the full sales cycle, from initial discovery through post-sales implementation, so customers experience a seamless "IBM + GitLab" journey. You'll use clean data and clear processes to track progress, spot bottlenecks, and keep all stakeholders aligned. In this role, you'll help shape how GitLab shows up in the IBM ecosystem while working in an all-remote, values-driven environment that gives you both autonomy and cross-functional support.
Some examples of our projects:
The Ecosystem Sales team is a collaborative, cross-functional partner to Sales and Alliances, focused on driving partner-led pipeline and revenue through high-impact programs and tight sales alignment. You'll join a fully remote, globally distributed team that works asynchronously with account executives, partner managers, sales operations, sales leadership, and external partners like IBM to design and execute joint go-to-market motions, orchestrate multi-party sales cycles, coordinate opportunities, structure deal support, and share best practices that can scale across GitLab. We focus on embedding partners into every stage of the sales cycle so customers get a seamless experience and our joint value propositions are clear. We are currently focused on building and iterating ecosystem motions with IBM and other key partners, improving partner-led pipeline health and visibility through clear measurement and reporting, and helping sales and channel leaders clearly understand and communicate the impact of ecosystem investments.
