WHAT YOU'LL BRING * Experience selling software as a service (SaaS) solutions. * Ability to manage a broad mid-market territory as the primary point of contact, owning a book of business from prospecting through close, adoption, and expansion. * Skill in building and maintaining strong customer relationships, including effective discovery, negotiation, and closing to support long-term customer outcomes. * Experience conducting consistent outbound prospecting, creating and maintaining a healthy pipeline, and maintaining accurate territory and forecast documentation. * Ability to collaborate closely with cross-functional partners (sales development, customer success, renewals, marketing, partners, and technical teams) to coordinate account strategies. * Ability to connect customer business challenges to GitLab's DevSecOps platform and communicate its value to different audiences, documenting customer insights and lessons learned; relevant, transferable sales experience from a variety of backgrounds is welcome. * Fluent French language skills (required). * Experience selling to development or DevSecOps teams is helpful, but not required.
