Datadog’s internal service platform handles all the underlying frameworks and tooling abstractions for building, deploying, and operating services at Datadog via golden paths. It ensures developers can fully focus on implementing business logic without extra burden and context by abstracting away the complexity of underlying infrastructure systems through an easy-to-use unified developer experience. This internal platform abstracts common problems away from engineers, making it easier and faster for teams to release new features and products. We have only just started on our mission to become the de facto internal platform for developers creating new services, where we aim to provide a unified developer platform that will help to accelerate business velocity to allow Datadog to maintain a competitive edge by delivering features faster.

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.
