What It's Like to Work at DigitalOcean 2026

I love working at DO because it IS actually about "love". Doing the work that I love, along with others who are just as passionate about their work and care about the same thing I do: helping our customers change the world for the better.

Colleen , Manager, User Research

At DO I have the opportunity to work with extremely talented, supportive, and inclusive engineers every day. I’m grateful to be a part of such an inspiring community.

DO is an incredible place to work because we are strongly rooted in our culture & values. It creates a work environment where I genuinely feel I am making a positive impact for our community because love is truly at the center of all we do.

Kirby, Social Media Manager

As a physicist turned developer, I find little in life to be more satisfying than building things, especially things that help other people. So as both a personal user and employee of DigitalOcean, I get the best of both worlds!

Bumyong, Manager, Engineering

We host an annual Shark Week where the entire company comes together for a week of learning, team time, opportunities to network cross-functionally, social activities, and more. We also host internal Hackathons (or Shark-a-hacks, as we call them) twice a year along with an annual Shark Day!

Olivia , Senior Manager, People Operations & Analytics

Success on my team is fueled by my team’s mutual respect and trust. My team has given me all of the necessary tools needed to get the job done and I am trusted to contribute to company projects that will transform the business. It is invaluable to be surrounded by a team that is just as committed to my success as I am!

Melonie, People Operations Associate

I'm really excited about our Managed Databases and App Platform offerings. Getting started on a new project can be hard, let alone the overhead of setting up infrastructure. With our App Platform and Managed Databases, developers can focus their attention on writing code.

Greg, Engineer II

DO is in a unique position as the entry point to the internet for 500,000 customers today, and with the potential to reach many millions more over time.

DigitalOcean sources meetups, conferences, projects, non-profit organizations, student-run hackathons, and individual developers who create useful content.
