We're on a mission to build the best platform in the world for engineers to understand and scale their systems, applications, and teams.  We operate at high scale—trillions of data points per day—providing always-on alerting, metrics visualization, logs, and application tracing for tens of thousands of companies. Our engineering culture values pragmatism, honesty, and simplicity to solve hard problems the right way.

Product Analytics is a new product we're launching at Datadog to bring Developers, Product Managers and Designers together on the platform. We want to help our customers define how their users behave, and be able to link user behavior changes to potential frontend/backend issues.

As a senior backend engineer in the team, you’ll have the opportunity to significantly shape a product in its early stages, and help it grow & scale to a large number of customers.

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.

 

What You’ll Do:

• Design and develop new significant features and capabilities in the Product Analytics product
• Deploy new features to production, progressively rolling them out with feature flags
• Investigate and fix production issue from services your team owns
• With your team, plan the most important projects to work on next

• You value code simplicity and performance
• You can design architecture to solve problems at high scale
• You want to work in a fast, high-growth startup environment that respects its engineers and customers

Datadog values people from all walks of life. We understand not everyone will meet all the above qualifications on day one. That's okay. If you’re passionate about technology and want to grow your skills, we encourage you to apply.
