DigitalOcean Senior Software Engineer Job 2026: Role Overview
In this role, you will build scalable backend infrastructure to test and evaluate AI agents. Moreover, you will design high-throughput backend systems in Python and Go. The work also covers distributed systems, orchestration of complex execution workflows, isolated execution environments, and evaluation signals. You will also build resilient APIs using gRPC and REST. Finally, the role includes code reviews, testing, design docs, and monitoring for reliability.
Requirements for This Role
You need 5+ years of experience building highly concurrent, fault-tolerant distributed systems. In addition, you need deep knowledge of Python and Go. However, strong C++ or Java engineers willing to master Python and Go can also apply. You also need experience with durable workflow orchestration engines. Moreover, you should know containerization, virtualization, and secure workload isolation, for example Docker, Kubernetes, and microVMs. You should also have experience with resilient APIs and high-throughput event or message data. Because the team is globally distributed, strong ownership and communication skills matter. Finally, awareness of the AI/ML ecosystem helps, including LLM APIs and testing non-deterministic systems. You do not need an ML researcher background.
