About Docker
Docker has been one of the most loved brands in developer tooling, trusted by more than 20 million monthly users and over 20 billion container image pulls. From solo founders to the world's largest companies, developers rely on Docker to build, share, and run their applications across our suite of products including Docker Desktop, Docker Hub, and Docker Scout.
We are a globally distributed, remote-first team building the tools that define how software gets built and delivered. As AI agents redefine software development, Docker is at the center of that shift, providing the sandboxed environments, verified images, and secure infrastructure that make autonomous workflows trustworthy by default.

About the Role
Docker is looking for a Sales Compensation Analyst to join our Finance team on a contract basis and support the administrative backbone of our sales compensation program. This is a writing-heavy, detail-oriented role. You'll draft and maintain participation agreements, create clear documentation, and manage SPIFF programs in our compensation system.
If you can turn complex comp plan language into clear, accurate, plain-English documents, and you enjoy the operational side of sales comp, this role is for you.
What You'll Do
Participation agreements
- Draft, edit, and finalize sales compensation participation agreements and plan documents
- Make sure plan terms, quotas, payout mechanics, and eligibility language are accurate and consistent
- Manage agreement distribution, tracking, and signature follow-up
- Partner with Legal, HR, and Sales leadership to review and approve language
Documentation
- Write and maintain comp plan documentation, process guides, and policy FAQs
- Create step-by-step procedures for recurring comp admin tasks
- Keep documentation current as plans, territories, and policies change
SPIFF administration
- Set up, configure, and maintain SPIFF programs in the compensation system
- Track eligibility, calculate payouts, and validate results against program rules
- Answer SPIFF questions from sales reps and managers
- Audit program data for accuracy before payouts are finalized
General sales comp support
- Help with commission data validation, reconciliation, and dispute resolution
- Support quota, territory, and roster updates in the comp system
- Respond to rep inquiries with clarity and professionalism
- Support monthly commission calculations across multiple compensation plans using SPIFF and Excel
What You Bring
Required
- 1-2 years of sales compensation experience
- Strong written communication skills, with a proven ability to write clear, precise, professional documents
- High attention to detail and comfort working with plan rules, rates, and payout logic
- Proficiency in Excel or Google Sheets
- Ability to manage multiple deliverables and deadlines independently in a fully remote environment
Nice to have
- Hands-on SPIFF administration experience
- Experience working in a sales compensation system (for example Xactly, Varicent, CaptivateIQ, Performio, SAP Commissions, or similar)
- Experience drafting or editing participation agreements or comp plan documents
- Familiarity with CRM data (Salesforce) and how it feeds comp calculations
What Success Looks Like
- Participation agreements go out accurate, on time, and with minimal back-and-forth
- Documentation is clear enough that reps and managers can find answers on their own
- SPIFFs are set up correctly and paid without errors or disputes
