Dive in and do the best work of your career at DigitalOcean. Journey alongside a strong community of top talent who are relentless in their drive to build the simplest scalable cloud. If you have a growth mindset, naturally like to think big and bold, and are energized by the fast-paced environment of a true industry disruptor, you’ll find your place here. We value winning together—while learning, having fun, and making a profound difference for the dreamers and builders in the world.
DigitalOcean is looking for a Business Technology Engineer to build, deploy, host, and run the applications that keep our business moving. You'll partner closely with our system owners and domain admins to take business needs from idea to a running, well-operated system — some hosted on our own cloud infrastructure on DigitalOcean, and some delivered through SaaS platforms that we extend with integrations and automation.
This is a hands-on engineering role with real ownership. If you have a growth mindset, like to move fast and think big, and are energized by owning systems end to end — from build, to deploy, to host and run — this is a place where you'll do some of the best work of your career.
What You'll Be Doing- Partner with system owners and domain admins to turn business requirements into technical solutions and a clear delivery plan.
- Build and deploy business technology applications, including custom apps hosted on DigitalOcean (App Platform, Droplets, Managed Databases, Spaces, and Kubernetes/DOKS).
- Package and ship applications using containers (Docker) and infrastructure-as-code, with repeatable, version-controlled, auditable configuration.
- Own the operational health of the systems you deploy — uptime, performance, backups, patching, cost, and security.
- Stand up monitoring, logging, and alerting so issues are caught early, and respond to and resolve incidents on the systems in your remit.
- Design and build integrations between SaaS platforms and internal systems using APIs, webhooks, and event-driven patterns.
- Develop automation in and around our SaaS tools — provisioning, data synchronization, and workflow automation — to remove manual work and keep systems in sync.
- Evaluate and recommend integration and automation tooling, choosing the right approach for each problem.
- Coordinate with vendors on roadmap, escalations, and technical questions for the platforms you support.
- Create and maintain clear technical documentation, runbooks, and standards so systems are supportable by the wider team.
- Participate in a support escalation path for business-critical systems.
- 5+ years of hands-on experience building, deploying, and operating applications and/or integrations in a business or enterprise IT environment.
- Practical experience hosting and running applications on a cloud platform — DigitalOcean is a strong plus; AWS, Azure, or GCP experience translates well.
- Proficiency in at least one language used for automation and integration (e.g., Python, JavaScript/Node.js, PowerShell, Go).
- Solid experience integrating SaaS systems via REST APIs, webhooks, and authentication patterns (OAuth, API keys, SSO/SCIM concepts).
- Working knowledge of containers (Docker), infrastructure-as-code (e.g., Terraform, Ansible), and CI/CD practices.
- A track record of partnering with non-technical stakeholders to turn requirements into working systems, and of documenting your work so others can run it.
- Strong ownership and problem-solving instincts — comfortable taking something from an ambiguous request to a running, monitored, supported production system.
Bonus points if you have:
- Direct DigitalOcean experience — App Platform, Droplets, Managed Databases, Spaces, or DOKS.
- Experience with iPaaS / workflow automation tools (e.g., Workato, Zapier, Make, Mulesoft, Boomi, Tray).
- Familiarity with common business SaaS platforms and their APIs (e.g., Google Workspace, Okta, Slack, Salesforce, NetSuite, Workday).
- Exposure to security and compliance practices for SaaS and cloud (access governance, least privilege, configuration auditing).
- A degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.

DigitalOcean Insights
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.
