DigitalOcean is looking for a Recruiting Operations & Enablement Manager to own the systems, processes, and infrastructure that power our recruiting function.

• Own the strategy and day-to-day operation of our recruiting systems, including our ATS and scheduling/coordination tooling.
• Build and document repeatable, scalable processes that hold up as headcount and hiring volume grow.
• Own data hygiene and reporting across recruiting systems.
• Partner with recruiters to identify the biggest sources of friction and manual work.
• Evaluate and implement new recruiting technology and AI-enabled tools.
• Work as a close partner to People Operations, Legal and Finance on shared processes.
• Define success metrics for recruiting operations and use data to drive continuous improvement.
• Build and maintain processes with the rigor and auditability expected of a public company.

• Strong command of ATS platforms (e.g., Greenhouse, Ashby, Workday) and recruiting/scheduling tools.
• A data-driven approach to program management, with experience building KPIs, dashboards, and translating insights into action.
• Comfortable experimenting with AI tools and automation (e.g., Zapier, scripts, AI-powered workflows).
• Excellent communication skills — able to earn buy-in and drive adoption across teams without relying on formal authority.
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience.

Requirements

• Experience in a high-growth, publicly traded tech company, particularly with SOX-related process considerations.
