Based in New York, DigitalOcean is a dynamic, profitable, high-growth technology company that has built a global infrastructure platform that serves a robust and passionate community of developers around the world. Our mission is to create a portfolio of cloud products and services that developers love.

Reporting to the Director of Engineering Services, the Technical Program Manager is responsible for coordinating development activity across product lines, managing dependencies, identifying risks, ensuring on-time delivery, and communicating status of major initiatives in the Portfolio Roadmap. While this role is focused on software development, TPMs at DigitalOcean must be prepared to handle complex dependencies between hardware, procurement and logistics at a global scale.

This role is a great opportunity for experienced Project and Program Managers with expertise in IaaS, PaaS, SaaS or B2B software development to launch products that are used and loved by thousands of developers worldwide, and have a major impact, both within the company and in the developer community at large.

• Manage schedules and dependencies across a portfolio of PaaS products
• Facilitate estimation and prioritization process with Product and Engineering teams
• Organize and communicate release plans and own the coordination of releases internally
• Manage, communicate and negotiate changes in project schedules with key stakeholders
• Measure and report on overall velocity to help shape process and optimize workflows

• Demonstrated success in a Project and Program Management function within a relevant industry (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS or B2B software development) with at least two previous companies
• Ability to coordinate multiple agile teams using decentralized decision-making and rolling-wave planning
• Proven track record of working with software development teams to deliver multiple product iterations on spec, budget, and time
• Effective at helping teams deliver on their commitments
• Strong attention to detail and understanding of intricate cross-dependencies
• Organization skills that mitigate against human error
• Ability to clearly communicate progress, change, and status updates both verbally and in writing
• Problem solving skills balancing between budget, release schedule, and spec adherence

• We have amazing people. We can promise you will work with some of the smartest and coolest people in the industry. We work hard but we always have fun doing it. Archery classes, DJ lessons, and office pie fights are a thing. We care deeply about each other and take our “no jerks” rule very seriously.
• We value development. We are a high-performance organization that is always challenging ourselves to continuously grow. That means we maintain a growth mindset in everything we do and invest deeply in employee development. You’ll need to be great to get hired here and we promise you’ll get even better.
• We care about you. We offer competitive health, dental, and vision benefits for employees and their dependents, a monthly gym reimbursement to keep you fit, and a monthly commute allowance to make your trips to and from work easier.
• We invest in your future. We offer competitive compensation and a 401k plan with up to a 4% employer match. We also provide all employees with Kindles and reimbursement for relevant conferences, training, and education.
• We want you to love where you work. We have a great office space located in the heart of SoHo NYC and offer daily catered lunches to keep your hunger at bay. We’re also very remote-friendly—we use Slack to communicate across the company—and all remote employees have the opportunity to take an all-expense-paid trip to our HQ to get quality in-person time with the team at least once a year. We also allow employees to customize their workstations to meet their needs—whether remote or in HQ.
• We value diversity and inclusivity. We are an equal opportunity employer and we do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
