Senior Ecosystems Sales Manager: Scale, India

About the Team

GitLab's APJ Ecosystem team builds and scales the partner (channel, alliance, and hyperscaler) motion across the region. India is a strategic market for GitLab, and this hire is central to strengthening our partner ecosystem there — deepening a smaller number of high-value partnerships rather than spreading thin across many transactional ones.

About the Role

The Scale Ecosystem Sales Manager (ESM), India is a senior, market-facing role responsible for building and scaling GitLab's partner business in India across the full breadth of the ecosystem. This role focuses on new logo acquisition and aligns closely with our new business team in India. This will involve working with hyperscalers, India-centric system integrators (SIs), and born-in-the-cloud / AI-native partners. We are looking for someone with the range and seniority to credibly own strategic partner relationships across all of these partner types, and to help grow our business through these partners.

This is a senior individual-contributor role for someone who has already built a career scaling partner-sourced and influenced revenue in India — someone who knows the hyperscaler ecosystem (AWS & GCP), has deep, credible relationships with India's major SIs, and understands how to engage newer-generation cloud-native and AI partners as they become an increasingly important part of the go-to-market.
