  • Relationship Management: Build and maintain strong relationships with top affiliates, influencers, and sub-affiliate networks to drive consistent performance.
  • Data-Driven Optimization: Monitor affiliate performance, analyze data, and implement strategies to improve conversion rates, engagement, and overall ROI.
  • Content & Community Engagement: Create inspiring and educational content for affiliates, and actively engage in relevant communities to establish Cloudways as a leader in the space.
  • Compliance & Quality Control: Ensure affiliate activities comply with company policies, mitigate fraud, and maintain program integrity.
What We’re Looking For:
  • Proven Experience: 5+ years in affiliate marketing with a focus on SaaS, global affiliate networks, and inbound marketing strategies.
  • Strategic Mindset with Execution Skills: Experience in scaling affiliate programs and integrating them with broader inbound marketing campaigns.
  • Email Automation Expertise: Strong understanding of email lifecycle flows (onboarding, activation, retention) and tools like HubSpot, Marketo, or similar platforms.
  • Data-Driven & Results-Oriented: Ability to analyze data, track key performance indicators, and drive measurable growth.
  • Relationship Builder: Exceptional communication and negotiation skills with a track record of building and nurturing partnerships globally.
  • Content & Community Focus: Experience creating affiliate-targeted content and engaging with relevant communities to drive brand presence.

What We Do

DigitalOcean is the Inference Cloud — a full-stack, production-ready cloud platform built to run AI applications with predictable performance, sustainable economics, and radically simpler operations at scale. We are built for teams turning AI into real products — not just training models. Our advantage is not fewer features, but fewer failure modes when operating AI at scale — combining minimal operational overhead, predictable cost efficiency, and a full-stack cloud that works as a system. Hyperscalers are broad by design. Neoclouds are infrastructure-first. DigitalOcean is inference-first — with a real cloud underneath. It combines inference-optimized compute, managed inference software, and integrated cloud capabilities that reduce operational burden for teams running real workloads. Inference is the foundation—not the boundary. Everything else builds on top of it.

Why Work With Us

At DO, we do career-defining work. We innovate with AI and build cutting-edge tech. Our rewards to match that intensity - to motivate you, recognize your impact, and give you what you need to thrive. If you have a growth mindset, like to think big and bold, and are energized by the fast-paced environment, you'll find your place here.
