About the role

Principal Product Manager at Docker focusing on Product Growth strategies and user onboarding experiences. Leading cross-functional teams to drive activation and expansion metrics.

Responsibilities

Lead Growth Pods: Direct the cross-functional Activation and Expansion pods, managing execution and velocity alongside embedded engineering, UX design, and analytics resources.
Optimize Onboarding & Setup: Reimagine the global workspace initialization and onboarding journeys within the inner loop of each product to eliminate mid-funnel drop-offs and accelerate time-to-value.
Deploy Behavioral Frameworks: Implement contextual hints, in-app triggers, and the underlying rules engines to seamlessly guide users through complex developer workflows.
Architect Product Attach Maps: Design and scale global navigation, headers, and persistent in-product discovery routes that reveal multi-product value and drive sequenced product adoption.
Operationalize New SKUs: Partner with core product and packaging teams to turn advanced portfolio capabilities (such as Security and AI features) into distinct, self-serve purchasable paths.
Stabilize Core Financial Levers: Take accountability for improving the self-serve active use conversion rate, driving Net Expansion Rate (NDR), and improving baseline Gross Dollar Retention (GDR).

Extensive Product Experience: Strong background in software product management, with a substantial, dedicated focus directly within Product-Led Growth (PLG) and self-serve monetization.
Proven Metric Impact: A clear track record of personally moving key SaaS growth metrics, such as Gross Dollar Retention (GDR), Net Dollar Retention (NDR), Trial-to-Paid velocity, or Activation Rates.
Strong Analytical Literacy: Advanced experience leveraging product analytics tools and working alongside data science partners to map user patterns and run clean experimentation frameworks.
Technical Familiarity: Comfort navigating developer ecosystems, cloud infrastructure, or complex multi-product software platforms.
Collaborative Communicator: Outstanding skills in cross-functional alignment, with a history of successfully leading matrixed engineering and design teams.
