Sr. Engineer, Core

2026 has been a breakout year for Doppler. We’ve helped over 78,000 startups and enterprises manage their secrets at scale, and landed our first million-dollar customer. We've shipped some of our most exciting features yet, expanded our customer base, and sharpened our focus like never before. With a strong foundation in community, we're scaling and monetizing with ambitious goals across product, growth, sales, and hiring.

The rise of AI tooling has fundamentally expanded who and what has access to your secrets. The stakes have never been higher, and getting it wrong has real consequences. Doppler is the solution to fix this. Simple to adopt, easy to scale, and built for developers, by developers. The momentum is real, and we’re just getting started.

About Doppler

Doppler's mission is to make it easy and secure for software developers of every experience level and teams of any size to manage their app configuration and secrets. But hasn't this been done?

Developers tend to be either struggling with the manual management of .env files, or wrestling with an overly complex secrets manager that’s not built for software development.

Our team is entrepreneurial, with a bias for action. We never back down from a spirited debate and believe we are all responsible for exploring the hard questions. We value self-awareness and meaningful impact. We are open to unconventional approaches and have learned not to judge a book by its cover. Your time is your most valuable resource, so you set your hours.

We use Slack to communicate and default to zero meetings.

Doppler is a developer-first secrets management platform that enables engineers and security teams to securely store their secrets across any cloud infrastructure or deployment environment at scale.

As a Senior Engineer, you’ll help build the next phase of scale for a platform that 78,000+ teams trust with their most sensitive data, using industry-leading techniques, and you’ll blaze the path for reliable agentic patterns ’re looking for an engineering-first mind: someone with strong technical fundamentals and principles who is also deeply engaged with AI and understands the shape of the emerging industry.

You know that AI amplifies good engineering judgment rather than replacing it. You care about building systems that are correct, fast, and secure by default, and you’re just as comfortable in the infrastructure those systems run on as in the code itself.

Doppler Engineering spans product, data, growth, infrastructure, and security. We’re a security-first team that genuinely cares about the quality of what we build. We collaborate with as little ego as humanly possible and are constantly trying to improve how we work and deliver software.
