Senior Software Engineer, AI CICD

The role, in a nutshell:

At Chainguard we’re focused on securing the software supply chain, and we're building the next generation of products at the intersection of security and AI. You'll join a small, fast-moving team shipping tools that developers will actually use.

The successful candidate will work on new products including the Guardener, hardened Github Actions, Chainguard Agent Skills, and more. You'll collaborate closely with team members and Product, guide technical decisions, and promote a culture of excellence.

What you’ll do:

• Own features end-to-end. From design through implementation, rollout, and iteration in close partnership with Product and our Experience (front-end) team.

• Navigate ambiguous problems and find a clear path forward. You take initiative rather than waiting for complete specs.

• Contribute to a product-driven roadmap with real deadlines: help the team prioritize tradeoffs and ship iteratively rather than waiting for perfect.

• Extend Chainguard's agentic AI foundation into customer-facing product experiences across the full product suite.

• Bring a strong technical point of view to architectural decisions and a collaborative spirit when working through them with the team.

What we're looking for:

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience

• 5+ years of experience in software development

• Expertise with containers, artifact registries, Docker, Kubernetes and its greater ecosystem

• Experience building and securing CI/CD systems

• Proficiency with Go (Golang) or strong readiness to ramp quickly.

• Experience with AI tooling and a genuine enthusiasm for applying it to complex problems

• Enthusiasm to work closely with the Product team and customers to launch new features

• Strong communication skills, proficiency in English, ability to work autonomously, take initiative, and seek help proactively when necessary.
