DigitalOcean is looking for a Recruiting Operations & Enablement Manager to own the systems, processes, and infrastructure that power our recruiting function. This is a hands-on role: you'll manage the day-to-day health of our recruiting tech stack, build the operational rigor that lets recruiting scale cleanly as the business grows, and partner closely with recruiters and People teams to remove friction from the hiring process.

You're equally comfortable setting operational strategy and getting into the weeds of an ATS workflow, a scheduling exception, or a messy report. You build things that hold up as the company scales including the documentation and data hygiene expected of a public company.

What You'll Do

• Own the strategy and day-to-day operation of our recruiting systems, including our ATS and scheduling/coordination tooling, ensuring they're configured, adopted, and running smoothly across the recruiting org.
• Build and document repeatable, scalable processes that hold up as headcount and hiring volume grow.
• Own data hygiene and reporting across recruiting systems: clean requisition data, accurate candidate and pipeline records, and dashboards recruiting and business leaders can trust.
• Partner with recruiters to identify the biggest sources of friction and manual work, then prioritize and build solutions — whether that's a new workflow, automation, or process redesign leveraging AI and tools.
• Evaluate and implement new recruiting technology and AI-enabled tools that make the team meaningfully more effective, and manage vendor relationships with a focus on ROI.
• Work as a close partner to People Operations, Legal and Finance on shared processes such as offer letter management, background checks, and headcount approvals, ensuring clean handoffs.
• Define success metrics for recruiting operations and use data to drive continuous improvement across the candidate and interviewer experience.
• Build and maintain processes with the rigor and auditability expected of a public company, anticipating compliance needs before they're required.

What You’ll Add to DigitalOcean

• 5+ years of experience in recruiting operations, with hands-on experience in recruiting coordination, systems administration, and process design.
• 2+ years of experience managing people or leading cross-functional workstreams.
