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 event portfolio - flagship conferences, developer roadshows, digital events, and community activations - is how Docker shows up in the world and turns developer enthusiasm into enterprise pipeline. As the portfolio grows, operational excellence is what lets it scale without added risk or complexity.
As a Senior Event Operations Manager, you will own the operational execution of that portfolio. Working closely with Docker's Director of Events, you coordinate planning timelines, manage vendors and logistics, own budgets and the event tech stack, and build the repeatable playbooks that keep programs running smoothly and consistently across the year.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys building systems, bringing structure to fast-moving projects, and delivering high-quality experiences at scale.
You will report to the Director of Events within Marketing and partner daily with Product Marketing, Developer Relations, Field Marketing, and Sales.
Important: Please note: for this role, you must have the ability to travel 35% of the time across North America, along with international travel as-needed.
Success in this role is operational: events are delivered smoothly and consistently across the portfolio, teams have clear planning processes and execution frameworks to work from, and operational risks are identified early and resolved quickly. Above all, programs are able to grow and scale without increasing complexity, because the systems, playbooks, and budgets you build absorb that growth.
Be the operational backbone the events and field marketing teams rely on for consistent, high-quality execution.

Docker is a fully remote company, so most work happens from home rather than an office. Openings are still region-anchored: current roles are based in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and the wider EMEA region, so check the specific posting for its eligible country. Docker also keeps optional office hubs in Paris and Seattle for anyone who wants occasional in-person collaboration.
Remote-first is built into how Docker operates, not a temporary policy. Communication is Slack and Zoom first, schedules are flexible, and teams lean on async workflows to collaborate across time zones. To help people recharge rather than burn out, Docker gives quarterly company-wide "Whaleness Days," alongside virtual social events, team bonding, and a recurring "Lunch Roulette."
Health coverage is a highlight, with company-paid medical premiums plus dental, vision, life, and disability insurance, a 401(k), parental leave, and equity as RSUs. Time off is generous, including unlimited PTO, paid holidays, and company shutdown days. For remote work specifically, Docker provides a home-office setup budget, a monthly technology and internet stipend, and a learning and development allowance for training.
Docker does not publish standardized salary bands publicly, so the exact range for a role is confirmed with your recruiter during the process. Offers reflect the role, its level, and your location, and total compensation pairs base salary with equity as RSUs and the benefits package above.
Docker runs on five virtues: Developer Obsession, Humble Confidence, Bias for Considered Action, Open Collaboration, and Outcome Driven. The culture emphasizes autonomy, transparency, and real impact, so people who are self-directed, developer-empathetic, and comfortable owning outcomes in an async setting tend to do well. Docker also supports employee resource groups spanning Underrepresented Genders, DEIB, Mental Health, Caregivers, and Neurodivergent communities.
Docker emphasizes inclusive hiring and a well-supported onboarding, and new hires describe a smooth start with a dedicated onboarding team, a home-office budget from day one, and training allowances. One important safety note from Docker: the company only contacts applicants from official @docker.com email addresses. Messages from lookalike domains such as @dockercareers.com are fraudulent, so never share personal information with them.
