About The Position

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. As a Senior GRC Analyst, you will report to the Security Engineering Manager – GRC and own the buildout and operation of Docker's risk management program. You will design and implement enterprise risk management processes, including security risk assessments, third-party risk management, and the risk register. You will also lead Docker's AI governance initiative, developing the policies, assessments, and controls needed to ensure responsible AI use across the company. This role requires a builder's mindset: someone who can take ambiguous problem spaces, define what good looks like, and deliver operational programs that scale. You will collaborate cross-functionally with Engineering, Product, Legal, IT, and Security Engineering to embed risk awareness into Docker's decision-making processes.
