Full Job Description

Docker has been one of the most loved brands in developer tooling, trusted by more than 20 million monthly users and over 20 billion container image pulls. From solo founders to the world's largest companies, developers rely on Docker to build, share, and run their applications across our suite of products including Docker Desktop, Docker Hub, and Docker Scout. We are a globally distributed, remote-first team building the tools that define how software gets built and delivered. As AI agents redefine software development, Docker is at the center of that shift, providing the sandboxed environments, verified images, and secure infrastructure that make autonomous workflows trustworthy by default. The Secure Build team builds and operates the infrastructure behind Docker's container builds. The team owns and runs Docker Build Cloud and Docker's Hub build systems, which run millions of builds a year for hundreds of organisations, and is building the next generation of that: secure, sandboxed CI that isolates each build step and produces hardened images with strong, verifiable provenance, including for customers in regulated and air-gapped environments. A current focus is a hardened build runner that executes each workflow step inside its own micro-VM sandbox. We're looking for an Engineering Manager to lead this team. It's a small, very senior group that recently came together, with strong technical leadership spread across it. You'll own the team's delivery, growth, and operational excellence, keep its high-scale production systems healthy, and be a real part of setting the team's technical direction alongside the engineers who lead on different parts of the system. THE KIND OF PERSON WE'RE LOOKING FOR The successful candidate leads first. They're an experienced engineering manager at their best turning a senior team into a high-performing, value-delivering part of the wider Docker org: getting the process and team mechanics right, partnering well with Product, and navig
