Manager I, Engineering - Language Platform

Application Performance Monitoring

(APM) is one of Datadog’s premier products that helps developers see inside complex distributed systems. Our SDKs are both the delivery vehicle for APM and the platform on which all of Datadog’s service and app based products (e.g. Application Security Management, Profiling, Data Stream Monitoring…) are delivered. We believe our SDKs are one of our technical moats and are a key competitive advantage for APM and Datadog more broadly. They’re also open-source.

Leading the evolution of our SDKs is a technically demanding and highly collaborative effort. You’ll work with language experts to deliver cutting-edge observability products across our 9 supported languages, with industry leading performance and a world class developer experience. You’ll rethink our SDKs’ architecture, APIs, data models, and protocol to meet Datadog’s current needs and scale, all while building in the open. And you’ll grow your team’s capacity by fostering a culture focused on customer needs, continuous learning, and innovation.

We’re looking for an experienced Engineering Manager who cares as much about technical excellence as empowering other engineering teams.

At Datadog, we place value in our office culture - the relationships that it builds, the creativity it brings to the table, and the collaboration of being together. We operate as a hybrid workplace to ensure our employees can create a work-life harmony that best fits them.
