Staff Solutions Engineer India - docker

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 seeking a Staff Solutions Engineer with strong technical credibility and the ability to operate across direct enterprise, partner, and developer community motions in one of Docker's highest-priority APAC markets. India is Docker's third-largest APAC market and home to the world's second-largest developer community, combining a massive open-source ecosystem, a large IT services sector, and a high-growth enterprise segment.

This role requires an SE who can engage Fortune-equivalent enterprises directly, enable a diverse channel partner ecosystem, and build authentic presence in one of the world's most active developer communities. The scope extends beyond India, with periodic travel to Southeast Asia to support regional coverage.

This role reports to the SE Leader, APAC.

• Support partner-led opportunities with architectural depth, PoC support, and competitive differentiation.

EVANGELIST AND COMMUNITY PRESENCE

• Build Docker's technical presence across India's developer and DevSecOps community, spanning major tech hubs including Bangalore, Hyderabad, Pune, Delhi NCR, and Mumbai.
