Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Design, train, and ship ML systems for governance and security, focusing on prompt injection and anomaly detection. Build the supporting infrastructure including data pipelines, feature stores, and model serving to enable fast iteration.
Requires 5+ years of applied ML/AI expertise and 4+ years of professional software engineering experience. Must have a track record of shipping production ML systems and experience with LLM-based systems and agent frameworks.
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's long-term vision is to become the runtime for trusted autonomy. As agents become more capable and autonomous, governance, policy, identity, and audit become foundational.
The Intelligence team builds intelligence-driven product capabilities that make software and agent execution on Docker safer, more effective, more trustworthy, and more efficient. Because Docker sits at the intersection of models, tools, software, identities, credentials, networks, and execution, we have visibility into behavior and context few other platforms can see, and we think that visibility is the foundation for a new layer of value across the platform.
We're hiring a ML Engineer as one of the founding engineers on Intelligence Org. You'll work directly with the team's first engineers and manager to figure out what to build, how to build it, and how it fits into the broader Docker platform. This is a hands-on builder role with staff-level scope: you'll shape technical direction, ship the first versions of intelligence capabilities into customer hands, and grow the foundations (data, evaluation, infrastructure) the team will rely on as it scales.
Design, train, evaluate, and ship ML systems that power governance and security capabilities, starting with problems like prompt injection detection, behavioral anomaly detection, trust scoring, and policy recommendations.
Build the supporting infrastructure: data pipelines, feature stores, model serving, evaluation harnesses, and the feedback loops that make iteration fast.
Make pragmatic build-vs-buy calls. Use frontier models, off-the-shelf tooling, and managed services to move quickly; invest in custom systems where they create durable advantage.
Set technical direction for the team's ML work. Own the architecture, evaluation methodology, model lifecycle, and the bar for shipping.
Help recruit, mentor, and shape the team as it grows.
This role may require participation in a 24/7 on-call rotation for the Agentic Platform; carry genuine pager responsibility for the services you build and operate
5+ years of deep applied ML/AI expertise with a track record of shipping production systems. Experience in fraud, abuse, safety, security, or trust domains, where adversarial dynamics, imbalanced data, and high-stakes decisions is valuable.
4+ years of professional, hands-on, full-time software engineering experience in backend, infrastructure, or platform engineering.
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
You've built and owned the systems around ML models, i.e. data pipelines, serving, evaluation, monitoring etc. and have shipped customer-facing products end to end.
You use modern AI tools fluently in your day-to-day work and have a sharp instinct for when frontier models can replace traditional ML, when they can't, and when to combine the two.
Experience with LLM-based systems in production - evaluation, prompt engineering, fine-tuning, retrieval, guardrails, agent frameworks.
Familiarity with the agent / MCP ecosystem.
You're energized by an early-stage effort where the roadmap is being written as the work happens, and you make crisp decisions with incomplete information.
Collaborative and low-ego. You work well across teams, write clearly, and bring others along.
