Docker - Senior Principal Product Manager, AI & Agent Platform

• Collaborate across Docker. You will work cross-functionally to ensure coherent product experiences and go-to-market alignment. • Collaborate across Docker. • Influence technical direction. Partner with engineering leadership on architecture decisions. You don’t need to write the code, but you need to understand the technical tradeoffs and have informed opinions about them. • Influence technical direction. • Represent the customer. Engage directly with developers, enterprises, and partners. Bring their voice into every product decision. • Represent the customer. • Overcome blockers. When something is in the way — a missing integration, an unclear market signal, a technical constraint — you figure out a path forward. You don’t wait for someone else to solve the problem. • Overcome blockers. When something is in the way • Experience. 10+ years of product management experience, with at least 5 years on developer tools, infrastructure, or platform products. • Deep technical fluency. You can read an architecture diagram, understand container and VM runtimes, and have a working knowledge of how AI agents, LLMs, and protocol-level tool connectivity work. You don’t need to be a hypervisor engineer, but you need to hold your own with one. • Deep technical fluency. • Proven ability to ship 0-to-1 products. You have taken a product from idea through launch in a fast-moving environment. You know how to operate when there is no playbook. • Proven ability to ship 0-to-1 products. • Builder mentality. You prototype, you sketch architectures, you test early ideas with customers before the spec is done. You are a doer, not just a thinker. • Builder mentality. • Strong product sense and UX instincts. You care about the developer experience at a deep level — from API design to CLI ergonomics to error messages. • Strong product sense and UX instincts. • Strategic thinking with execution follow-through. You can set a multi-year vision and also write the spec for what ships next sprint. • Strategic thinking with execution follow-through. • Comfort with ambiguity. This space is new and moving fast. You thrive when the answer isn’t obvious and you have to go find it. • Comfort with ambiguity. • Excellent communication. You can write a crisp product brief, present to executives, and debate technical tradeoffs with engineers — all in the same day. • Excellent communication. • Experience growing and monetizing products at scale. You have been part of taking a product from early adoption to meaningful revenue, and you understand the pricing, packaging, and go-to-market decisions that make that happen. • Experience growing and monetizing products at scale. • Experience building products in the containers, cloud-native, or DevOps space • Experience with AI/ML developer tooling or the agentic AI ecosystem • Contributions to open source projects • Experience building and scaling a business from zero to significant ARR • What You’ll Work With • We are building a new platform for agentic development. Docker Sandboxes — isolated execution environments for AI coding agents — is one of the first products in this platform and one of the fastest-growing new products in Docker’s history. But this is just the beginning. The platform will grow to span multiple product areas as we define how agents and people work together at scale. • The technologies you will work across include: • Secure, isolated execution environments (microVMs, containers, sandboxing) • Agent-to-tool connectivity and protocol standards (MCP and beyond) • AI model serving and inference infrastructure • Governance, policy enforcement, and audit controls for enterprise AI adoption • Local-to-cloud execution and workload portability • Container runtimes, image registries, and build systems • Docker does not offer visa sponsorship for this role.
