ABOUT THE ROLE
DigitalOcean's Agentic AI organization provides a powerful inference cloud,
Managed Agents, and robust Feedback systems that enable customers to run AI
inference confidently at scale. We are looking for a Staff Software Engineer to
serve as a technical leader within our Feedback Systems team, driving the
architecture for the massive-scale infrastructure that simulates, tests, and
evaluates AI agents.
As an IC5 Staff Engineer, you will define the architectural vision for systems
that simulate multi-agent, multi-turn deployments complete with tool
integration.
This enables customers to run and analyze "what-if" scenarios to
evaluate alternative configurations for their AI agents. This is a high-impact
leadership role where you will solve advanced problems at the intersection of
LLM orchestration, synthetic data generation, and behavioral
simulation—including defining realistic user personas from historical telemetry
and structuring automated evaluation objectives and constraints. You will set
the technical standard for the team and guide the engineering strategy across
the Agentic AI organization.
WHAT YOU'LL DO:
* Simulation Architecture & Orchestration: Leading the end-to-end design and
implementation of multi-agent, multi-turn simulation environments. You will
architect systems where synthetic users and AI agents interact dynamically,
leverage tools, and execute complex workflows to test boundary conditions.
* Persona & Scenario Generation: Designing ML pipelines th
