An overview of this role As a Fullstack Engineer on the Duo Client SDK team at GitLab, you'll build the shared foundation for every GitLab Duo client. Today, the logic that powers Duo in editors lives inside the GitLab Language Server. We're extracting it into a true software development kit (SDK): a set of well-versioned TypeScript packages that editor extensions, our web-based Duo Chat on GitLab.com, and eventually external applications can use. You'll work in TypeScript across frontend and backend systems. You'll design the SDK's Node.js core and public application programming interface (API), and work in the clients that use it. The work rewards care about interfaces, versioning, and backward compatibility as much as features because other engineers will depend on what you build. You'll have senior and staff engineers alongside you to help with design. You'll own the implementation of scoped packages and ship improvements with minimal guidance while collaborating with the team on larger architectural changes. Some examples of our projects: • The Duo Client SDK, extracting versioned, publishable packages from the GitLab Language Server • The GitLab Language Server, rebuilt on top of the SDK as our polyglot surface • Duo Chat on the web, as one of the SDK's first consumers What you'll do • Develop secure, well-tested, and performant TypeScript features that solve technical problems of moderate scope and complexity. • Ship small features and improvements with minimal guidance, writing tests with every merge request and contributing to code reviews and design discussions. • Extract and publish TypeScript packages from the GitLab Language Server, migrating consumers incrementally so no parallel implementation is left to drift. • Design durable public APIs with clear interfaces, semantic versioning, changelogs, and deprecation paths for external consumers. • Build isomorphic core packages that isolate platform-specific behavior in adapters at the edges. • Build and improve SDK client surfaces, including Vue 3 components in Duo Chat on the web, in collaboration with product, design, and engineering teams. • Strengthen credential handling across hosts, including bearer tokens, session cookies, and CSRF protection. • Optimize bundle size, startup cost, and dependency weight for browser consumers, and support a Tier 2 on-call rotation for urgent engineering issues. What you'll bring •
