New Engineering Manager, AI CICD

What you'll do:

• Own a portfolio of products end-to-end — the Guardener, hardened GitHub Actions, Chainguard Agent Skills, and emerging microVM-based products — from roadmap through implementation, rollout, and iteration.
• Hire, lead, and grow a small team of strong engineers. Remove blockers and create the conditions for them to do their best work.
• Stay technically hands-on: review designs and PRs, prototype when it unblocks the team, and unblock the team

What we're looking for:

• 2+ years experience managing engineers with a genuine, sustained passion for leading and growing a team.
• Proficiency with Go and experience building CI/CD systems, developer tooling, or product-facing platforms.
• Comfort with autonomy and ambiguity, a bias for action, and a habit of shipping iteratively.

About us:

• We are customer obsessed — We focus on delivering solutions to our customers that create value and make their lives better.
• We have a bias for intentional action — We prioritize, plan, try things, and fail fast.
• We trust each other and assume good intentions — We're transparent with decisions to empower team members.
