About this role
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.
We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer, Growth to join our Software Engineering Team focussed on growth and experimentation initiatives. This role will partner closely with Product, Design, Marketing, and PLG to build, launch, and optimize high-impact growth experiments across Docker products and also build the CX for common Docker surfaces.
This is a full-stack software engineering role with a growth lens, focused on delivering measurable business outcomes like increased activation, retention, and expansion—by writing high-quality, production-grade code, instrumenting the right signals, and turning data into product improvements that millions of developers feel.
RESPONSIBILITIES
- Build and ship behavior-based user experiences that drive onboarding, activation, checkout flows and retention across Docker’s product suite.
- Design and implement end-to-end growth experiments—from hypothesis to implementation to post-launch analysis.
- Collaborate with Product, Design, Marketing, and Ops teams to deliver high-velocity experiments that improve core funnel metrics.
- Write production-grade code across Docker’s stack, including frontend (React/JavaScript), backend (Go/Python), and cloud services.
- Leverage A/B testing frameworks and in-app engagement tools to optimize personalized user journeys.
- Share experiment outcomes, insights, and next-step recommendations with stakeholders across product and business functions.
- This role may require participation in an on-call rotation to provide support outside of standard business hours, including evenings, weekends, and holidays, as needed
