Senior Product Marketing Manager
Stacklok
Stacklok, founded by Kubernetes co-creator Craig McLuckie, is building the enterprise standard for secure AI context delivery.
Our Stacklok Enterprise MCP Platform brings the Model Context Protocol into production-grade enterprise environments: a purpose-built runtime, gateway, and registry that securely connects AI agents to internal data and systems behind the firewall, with built-in governance, observability, and policy enforcement at scale. The platform is already deployed by industry leaders operationalizing AI agents across tens of thousands of users.
Stacklok partners with leading AI platforms, helps maintain the official MCP registry, and builds in the open through our ToolHive open source project. We give enterprises the security and control to move AI from pilots into production, confidently and at scale.

The Opportunity
AI agents create real value for enterprises only when they’re connected to data and systems, and so leaders across industries are turning to the Model Context Protocol (MCP) as the critical ‘bridge’. As a result, the MCP market is growing and evolving rapidly; the few companies that emerge will have an outsized impact and be viewed as essential AI infrastructure. Stacklok is positioned to be the leading MCP platform, and to shape the broader effort to make enterprise systems agent-aware.

This is an opportunity to work at the forefront of AI for a company with the right solution at the right moment in time.
