We value winning together—while learning, having fun, and making a profound difference for the dreamers and builders in the world.
We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer (IC3) to join our Security Products team working on Key Management Systems (KMS). Our KMS platform is foundational to DigitalOcean's security posture — managing the full lifecycle of cryptographic keys that protect customer data across the platform, from envelope encryption for block storage and databases to API credential management and secrets handling.
In this role, you will own significant technical workstreams within our KMS platform — not just implementing features, but shaping how cryptographic systems are designed, hardened, and operated.



You will go deep on HSM integration, key lifecycle management, and compliance engineering, and will actively raise the security and technical quality of the team around you. If you are a strong engineer who wants to combine cryptographic depth with growing cross-team influence in one of the most security-critical domains at DigitalOcean, this is the team for you.
What You'll Do
Own Technical Workstreams: Design and build high-availability, security-critical key management services in Go, taking end-to-end ownership from design through production operation.
Drive Key Lifecycle Engineering: Lead the design and implementation of key generation, rotation, escrow, and destruction workflows — owning the design decisions, correctness guarantees, and audit trail requirements, not just the implementation.
Advance Envelope Encryption: Design and scale the DEK/KEK hierarchy that protects customer data at rest acr
