Job description
Why Now
2025 has been an exciting year for Doppler. After raising our $20M Series A from CRV in 2022, we have now helped over 56,660 startups and enterprises manage their secrets at scale. After building the community, it is time to scale and monetize. Throughout this year, we’re getting far more ambitious by setting even higher product, growth, sales, and hiring goals!
About Doppler
Doppler’s mission is to make it easy and secure for 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. Doppler is changing that by making app configuration and secrets management easy, intuitive, and scalable. It’s the SecretOps platform built by developers for developers.
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. We aim to document everything. We also recommend you invest your time in 10% compounding time.
Who We Are
Doppler is a SecretOps platform that enables developers and security teams to keep their secrets secure and in sync wherever they run their code. SecretOps is the set of security philosophies, frameworks, and tools used to operationalize secrets at scale.
The Role
We are looking for a Senior Full Stack Engineer who can own new features and projects from inception to completion. You will be designing both frontend and backend architectures while promoting secure engineering practices in a fast-paced development environment. Typically these projects range across the stack, from building our React frontend, to extending functionality within our secrets engine that manages highly sensitive data. Beyond the technical requirements, we love working with engineers who care about the user experiences they create. Part of what makes Doppler loved is its simplicity and intuitiveness, we hope you can help carry that torch.
