gdal
GDAL is an open source MIT licensed translator library for raster and vector geospatial data formats.
We're using a lot of Python. In addition to these, gridMET, Dask, HoloViz, and kerchunk.
For dem processing, taudem5 has a cli and arcgis toolbox and supposedly supports clusters for large problems. The gdal tools do not have a watershed tool afaik, but handle large datasets well and and can be called from a number of different languages. As others have mentioned, there are many python geoprocessing packages and some work well. I'd second rasterio, the python gdal bindings, and xarray. Pysheds looks interesting but haven't tried.
