An overview of this role

As Principal Product Marketing Manager, Competitive, you own GitLab's competitive point of view on AI and agentic software development and serve as the authority on our market differentiation. You consult regularly with sales, product teams, investor relations, industry analysts, and leadership on competitive strategy and roadmap implications while publishing external thought leadership.

• Give Product an opinionated read on what competitive movement means for roadmap sequencing, bringing evidence and a recommendation rather than a summary of what competitors shipped

• Build the compete assets, plays, and objection handling the field uses against named competitors, define the sales motion that moves win rate, then measure whether it did

• Partner with Growth and Campaigns on competitor displacement campaigns, accountable for their contribution to pipeline

• Brief Investor Relations, industry analysts, sales, and executive leadership with the same rigor, owning the competitive-landscape narrative with analysts and PMMs

• Raise the competitive bar across the PMM team

• Deep domain expertise in SDLC, DevSecOps, and agentic software development to engage technical buyers and executive audiences

• Track record of driving competitive positioning that delivers measurable win-rate impact

• Fluency in the AI/agentic coding landscape and competitor exposure areas

• Established thought leadership with industry recognition (speaking, publications, advisory roles)

• Experience briefing executives, investor relations, and industry analysts

• Ability to form and articulate a clear point of view quickly despite incomplete information

• Strong communication skills to translate complex technical concepts into clear narratives

• Practical experience using AI tools within your workflow

• Self-directed, data-driven mindset using win/loss insights to guide strategy
