Senior Engineer: Delivery
Have you ever wondered what happens inside the cloud?
Based in New York, DigitalOcean is a dynamic, high-growth technology company that serves a robust and passionate community of developers around the world. Our mission is to simplify cloud computing for every developer. We are working on solving some of the most challenging and interesting technology projects around, on a scale unmatched by few companies.
We want people who care about building features that you and your peers will love.
As a member of the Delivery team, you will build solutions that provide DigitalOcean engineers with robust and comprehensive set of primitives for bringing a service from development to production. We believe that by providing the right set of tools and automation our engineering teams can focus on shipping innovative products to our customers faster and more reliably.
The Delivery team owns and operates an internal platform for deploying the ever growing number of microservices that make up the DigitalOcean cloud. Built on top of Kubernetes the DOCC platform is responsible for deployments large (hundreds of cores and hundreds of GB of memory) and small (fractions of a cpu and MB of memory), servicing internal customers from all across the company in clusters all across the world. We internalized the DigitalOcean mission and apply that same principle of simplicity to how engineers interact with that platform.
