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.

Docker is building a Training practice to accelerate customer onboarding and adoption, and help them realize measurable value from Docker’s AI Governance products. As Senior Manager, Training you will own learning journey design, operations and outcomes.
This is a founding role. You will start as an individual contributor, personally building the first learning paths and standing up the platform, and you will grow into leading a team as the Training function scales.
This is a high-visibility role within our Professional Services organization and works directly with leadership in Professional Services, Technical Account Management and Onboarding Specialists. You’ll define how new customers learn to implement Docker in their first weeks and months, developing user and administrator self-led journeys and instructor-led workshops. You’ll prove Training impact with data tied to onboarding, implementation and adoption milestones, and the value customers realize.
You will build on a modern learning stack anchored on Skilljar and Instruqt. You will make AI a core part of how customers are implemented, using agents to produce content, coach learners, and run learning operations.
Own the training journey for customer implementation training, focused on admins, IT, security, DevOps teams and non-developer teams adopting Docker Sandboxes and AI governance products.
Own the learning technology stack built on Skilljar and Instruqt, including catalog and learning-path structure and authoring workflows
Build hands-on: author the first implementation paths, labs, and assessments, and configure and administer Skilljar and Instruqt.
Design the training practice to be AI-native using built in features from Skiljar and Instruqt and support from Professional Services engineers: agents draft courses, lab guides, and assessments from product docs, release notes, and engineering changes, and flag stale content, with an SME review gate for technical accuracy before anything is published.
Establish repeatable curriculum standards: implementation path templates, hands-on lab patterns, assessment and badging criteria, content review and refresh cycles and web-based customer journeys.
Partner with technical subject-matter experts within Professional Services to build content, and support them on authoring in Instruqt.
Use AI agents, vendors, contractors, and SMEs as leverage to scale output ahead of headcount.
Define team model: roles, sequencing, and the business case for first hires.
Ensure learner data practices meet Docker’s privacy, security, and vendor review standards, including PII minimization and DPA requirements for training platforms and any AI models that process learner data.
