About this role

Chainguard is the trusted source for open source. By delivering hardened, secure, and production-ready builds of all the open source software engineers and AI agents rely on, Chainguard helps organizations build faster, stay compliant, and eliminate risk. Our customers include Fortune 500 enterprises and global industry leaders, including Anduril, Canva, Fortinet, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, OpenAI, Snap Inc., and Snowflake.

Chainguard is venture-backed by leading investors, including Amplify, IVP, Kleiner Perkins, Lightspeed Venture Partners, Mantis VC, Redpoint Ventures, Sequoia Capital, and Spark Capital. Senior Product Manager, AI CI/CD The role, in a nutshell: Chainguard secures the software supply chain, and we're standing up a new team to build a new product inside it. Agents now write a large and growing share of the world's code, and they inherited a CI system designed for humans who push a few times a day.

Write, push, wait in a queue, reinstall the same toolchain, scrape the logs, try again. Agents iterate far more often than people do, so they feel every minute of that, and the workarounds they've grown are worse than the thing they're working around. We don't think the fix is a faster version of the CI you already have. We think CI gets rebuilt for agents, and that's what we're doing. The product isn't launched, so a job post is the wrong place for the details.

What we can tell you now: the team is small, the hard technical pieces already run in production inside Chainguard, and you'd be driving the product direction. What you'll own: Strategy and roadmap. Own the vision, strategy, and roadmap for the product. Decide what we build first, what comes next, and what we're not going to do. 0→1 product work. Take this from a system that works for us to a product customers buy and use.

Bring structure to problems that don't have any yet, make the tradeoff calls, and get things in front of users before they feel finished. How agents actually build software. Go deep on how developers and their agents write, test, review, and ship code today, including the parts nobody blogs about. Most of what's written about agentic development is aspirational. You'll work from what people really do. Design partners.

Find the teams whose agent fleets are big enough to hurt, get the product into their hands early, and turn what they tell you into priorities. Developer experience. Adoption is the whole game here. Own how the product gets tried, configured, and lived with, so a team can move onto it without running a migration project. Launch. Positioning, naming, docs, the pricing model, and the story, with Product Marketing and the rest of Product.

You're also the person who says when it's ready. Cross-functional leadership. Partner with Engineering, Experience, Product Marketing, and other Product leaders, and keep a small team pointed at the same thing while the space shifts underneath it. What we're looking for: 5+ years of product management experience on developer-facing, infrastructure, security, or similarly technical products. You've built agent tools. Something agents use, or something people use to build with agents: a coding agent, an agent framework or harness, MCP servers, eval systems, or developer tooling meant to be driven by a model instead of a person.

This is the requirement that matters most to us. You know CI from the inside. Builds, tests, caches, runners, artifacts, merge gates, and the specific reasons pipelines end up slow, flaky, and expensive. You should have opinions about why. You don't need to be a GitHub Actions expert. We're not building a better Actions, and years of workflow YAML isn't the experience we're hiring for. Knowing where it breaks is. Experience taking a technical product from an early idea through launch and iteration.

Judgment about what to leave out. A new product dies from doing too much as easily as from doing too little. Comfort with a deeply technical engineering team. You can hold your own in a design discussion and disagree with an engineer about a tradeoff. You talk to developers directly and often, and you can tell the difference between technology people find interesting and a product they'll actually adopt. You write well.

We make decisions in documents here. You can operate on your own in a fast-moving area with no established playbook. Nice to haves You've run coding agents in production at real volume, or built the systems that keep them from breaking things. Experience with developer platforms, build systems, remote execution, or hosted development environments. Experience with containers, Kubernetes, registries, or other cloud-native infrastructure.

You've built security products for developers, and you know how fast a developer abandons one that gets in the way. Experience with products that serve individual developers and large enterprises at the same time. You've owned your own team's CI at some point and hated it.
