[Remote] Staff Product Manager, Infrastructure & AI Dev Tools (Seattle, WA / PST Preferred)
Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Docker, Inc. is a leader in developer tooling, serving over 20 million users globally. They are seeking a Staff Product Manager to lead product strategy for their Infrastructure and AI Dev Tools, focusing on enhancing internal platforms and transitioning tools to customer-facing products.
Responsibilities
- Define and execute the long-term product strategy for Docker's internal developer platform and AI developer tooling, spanning infrastructure, self-service, CI/CD, and AI-powered and agentic workflows
- Drive an integrated roadmap that balances foundational platform investments with the AI-native capabilities that differentiate Docker
- Align platform and tooling strategy with Docker's business objectives and product portfolio, in partnership with engineering and executive leadership
- Treat the internal platform as a product: define golden paths, paved roads, and self-service capabilities that let teams provision, deploy, observe, and operate with minimal friction and strong guardrails
- Establish clear contracts, defaults, and documentation, and drive adoption through measurable outcomes rather than mandate
- Partner with infrastructure teams to translate reliability, scale, networking, and cost priorities into a roadmap teams can trust
- Shape where AI agents and assisted workflows earn their place across the SDLC and operations, from code authoring and review to incident response, with a bias toward safe, auditable, human-reviewed automation
- Partner with engineering to decide what to build versus integrate across a fast-moving AI and developer infrastructure landscape
- Define how AI tooling effectiveness is measured: adoption, productivity gains, and developer satisfaction
- Identify which internal tools and platform capabilities are ready to become customer-facing offerings, and own the strategy that takes them from prototype to product
- Partner with product, design, and go-to-market teams to shape positioning, packaging, and the path to GA for graduated capabilities
- Bring customer and market insight back into the internal platform roadmap
- Build deep relationships with product and engineering leaders across Docker to understand their roadmaps and surface platform enablement opportunities
- Influence roadmaps by articulating platform constraints, trade-offs, and opportunities, and drive alignment when teams' needs compete
- Serve as the trusted product advisor on infrastructure and developer tooling decisions across the organization
- Define and track the metrics that matter: platform adoption, reduction in support load and toil, provisioning and deployment speed, reliability, and developer productivity
- Use data to prioritize investment and to demonstrate the business impact of platform and AI tooling work
Skills
- 10+ years of product management experience, with 4+ years at Staff level or above

- Strong technical acumen: able to engage credibly in architecture and trade-off discussions across Kubernetes, CI/CD, networking, APIs, and observability
- Deep understanding of platform-as-a-product principles: self-service, golden paths, developer experience, adoption over mandate, and internal customer success
- Fluency with where AI and agentic workflows are heading, including hands-on familiarity with LLM-powered tooling or AI agents, and good judgment about where automation belongs
- Excellent stakeholder management and the ability to influence without authority across a technical organization
- Strategic thinking that balances long-term platform vision with near-term team needs and business objectives
- Clear written and verbal communication suited to a remote-first environment
- Prior experience as an infrastructure, platform, or developer-tools PM at a B2B SaaS or developer-tools company
