An overview of this role

Knowledge is a small team owning GitLab Wiki, GitLab Pages, and everything related to markdown and text editing in GitLab.

Collaborate across teams: engage with other engineers, product manager, infrastructure teams, and users to refine feature specifications and drive them to general availability. Advocate for improvements to product quality, security, performance, and team processes. Iterate in everything you do : identify the minimal viable changes and constantly ship value to users while keeping a larger product vision in mind Engage with community contributors and users on public issues: figure out the best solutions for specific issues, write detailed “how to implement” guides, and support contributors in the review process.

What You’ll Bring
