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 Staff Product Designer on the Admin Platform, you design the surfaces that let organizations actually run Docker. That means settings, identity and access management, billing, policy, and the connective tissue that makes it possible for an administrator to understand and control how their teams use Docker across every product surface. This work is often underestimated. Admin surfaces are where trust is built or lost. A confusing permissions model or a billing page that doesn't add up erodes confidence in the entire platform. You understand that and you bring the same rigor and craft to admin workflows that others reserve for flagship features. You've done this kind of work before. You know what good IAM design looks like. You've thought carefully about how billing surfaces communicate value without creating anxiety. You have opinions about how settings should scale from a single developer to an enterprise with thousands of seats. And you understand that the admin is a distinct user with distinct goals who deserves a designed experience, not an afterthought. Docker's admin platform spans the Admin console, Docker Desktop, and upcoming product surfaces. As Docker's product footprint grows, the job of keeping the admin experience coherent across all of it becomes more consequential. You own that coherence. RESPONSIBILITIES * Own the end-to-end design for the Admin Platform: settings, identity and access management, billing, policy surfaces, and cross-product admin workflows * Ensure that administrators can manage their organizations and achieve their goals across every Docker product surface without hitting seams or contradictions * Identify UX debt across the admin domain and drive it into the roadmap; you're accountable for the overall quality of the experience, not just the next sprint * Partner closely with Engineering and PM to define how new products and features integrate with the admin platform in a way that feels coherent, not bolted on * Use AI tools actively throughout the design process for prototyping, synthesis, and iteration * Collaborate across stakeholders (product, engineering, sales, security, and legal) to build a shared design direction for how Docker serves its administrators * Mentor and elevate more junior designers; your work should be the reference that others study and pull from QUALIFICATIONS * Proven track record designing admin, settings, or operations-facing surfaces: IAM, billing, policy management, audit and compliance UIs, org management, or similar * Experience designing cross-product systems, not just screens, but the connective tissue between surfaces that has to stay coherent as the product grows * Deep familiarity with developer tools, platforms, or infrastructure products; you understand the developer context even when designing primarily for the admin * Solid grasp of qualitative and quantitative research methods; ability to synthesize across multiple evidence streams (telemetry, support, qualitative research, sales conversations) into a coherent point of view * Fluency with prototyping and iterative development; you show thinking early and work it out in the open * Ability to develop strong, informed opinions about new technology domains quickly, including areas like AI tooling and containerized environments you may not have designed for before * Experience mentoring or coaching product designers; this role shapes design practice across the team, not just output within a single surface ATTRIBUTES WE LOOK FOR * Empathy for the administrator as a distinct user: someone accountable to their organization, not just trying to get their own work done * Systems thinker; you see how a permissions decision in the Admin console creates expectations in Docker Desktop, and you design with that in mind * Strong opinions, loosely held; you advocate clearly and update gracefully when new evidence arrives * Ability to explain complexity without flattening it; you respect the intelligence of both your users and your cross-functional partners * Humility and a genuine learning mindset; the admin platform touches a wide surface area and no one walks in knowing all of it * Reflective, accountable, and ownership-oriented * AI-forward design process: you're meaningfully integrating tooling into how you work, not just using it as a talking point WHAT TO EXPECT FIRST 30 DAYS * Complete onboarding and develop a working understanding of how Docker's products connect from an admin perspective: what an administrator can control today, where the gaps are, and how the pieces are supposed to fit together * Audit existing design work across the Admin console and adjacent surfaces: what has shipped, what hasn't, and why * Shadow customer and sales calls to build a ground-level view of how administrators actually manage their organizations and where the friction lives * By week three, be sharing early thinking with the team: not polished, just visible * By end of month one, have a working point of view on where the admin platform experience most needs to improve FIRST 60 DAYS * Build active working relationships across engineering, product, sales, security, and legal: the full coalition that admin platform design requires * Be actively designing and shipping. Show up in critiques, stay in flow with PM and engineering partners * Establish your agentic workflow scaffolding: define how you're using AI tooling for prototyping, synthesis, and iteration, and get in sync with how the broader design team works * Crystallize a design-led point of view on the admin platform's direction and share it with your manager and team ONE-YEAR OUTLOOK * Fully own the design of the Admin Platform end to end: settings, IAM, billing, policy surfaces, and the integration patterns that connect them to the rest of Docker's products * Serve as the design authority on what it means for a new Docker product or feature to integrate with the admin platform in a way that feels coherent and trustworthy * Act as a strategic thought partner to leadership on how Docker builds and maintains administrator trust as the product grows * Feed insight and craft back to the broader design team; show what staff-level ownership looks like in motion * By year one the Admin Platform experience should be demonstrably clearer, more coherent, and more trustworthy than on day one, and that should be traceable to your presence on the team Docker does not offer visa sponsorship for this role. Perks * Freedom & flexibility; fit your work around your life * Designated quarterly Whaleness Days plus end of year Whaleness break * Home office setup; we want you comfortable while you work * 16 weeks of paid Parental leave (after 6 months of employment) * Technology stipend equivalent to $100 USD net/month * PTO plan that encourages you to take time to do the things you enjoy * Training stipend for conferences, courses and classes * Equity; we are a growing start-up and want all employees to have a share in the success of the company * Docker Swag * Medical benefits, retirement and holidays vary by country * Remote-first culture, with offices in Seattle and Paris Docker embraces diversity and equal opportunity. We are committed to building a team that represents a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, and skills. The more inclusive we are, the better our company will be. #LI-REMOTE
