## About the role

As a Senior Partner Manager on our Technology Partnerships team, you will own the Chainguard integrations program: how we evaluate, scope, certify, and maintain integrations, and how we prioritize them against customer demand and company strategy. You will drive that work across partner engineering, Product, and a dedicated Solutions Engineer, and you will be the person partners work with from first conversation through launch. This is a senior individual contributor role reporting to the VP, Alliances.

## What they're looking for

- 6+ years in technology partnerships, partner management, integration program management, or partner solutions
- Technical enough to scope an integration and evaluate a partner's proposed design. This role does not build or test, but you should not depend on others to know where a program stands
- Working knowledge of containers, Kubernetes, and cloud native infrastructure
- Familiarity with vulnerability management tooling and how scanners work
- Program management experience. You have taken ambiguous, multi-stakeholder work and given it a process and an owner
- Experience with partner agreements and commercial terms alongside Legal
