Remote Backend Engineer – Clojure – Docker Inc at WorksHub #vacancy #remote

Docker is a remote first company with employees across Europe and the Americas. We value transparency and asynchronous communication, but also arrange meetups and offsites to allow people to work together in person. At Docker, we empower developers to make world-changing apps. Docker helps developers bring their ideas to reality by conquering the complexity of app development using container images. The Supply Chain team is looking to solve the following problems: What insights can we give developers about their images and build processes? How can developers keep their software dependencies up to date and secure? What data can we put at developers’ fingertips to supercharge their daily work? How can developers build on expertise and pre-existing solutions within their organization? How can we help organizations introduce policies that improve the security of their software supply chain? To solve these problems, the Supply Chain team experiments on and delivers various features using data, iterating quickly on prototypes inside Docker Desktop, Docker Hub, and a new cross-registry initiative. We’re centered around a large data plane with integrations to container registries and source control systems. We use this data to provide developers with insights and new functionality.
