At Datadog, we're on a relentless mission to build the best platform in the world for engineers to truly understand and scale their systems, applications, and teams. Operating at an unprecedented scale - processing trillions of data points per day - we empower seamless collaboration and problem-solving for tens of thousands of companies globally. Our engineering culture thrives on pragmatism, honesty, and simplicity, tackling complex challenges the right way.
Datadog's Software Delivery Platform starts with a comprehensive, end-to-end visibility across the entire SDLC, helping customers catch issues before production, optimize costs, and accelerate delivery. Our product suite includes granular insights into CI/CD pipelines, intelligent test management and optimization, code quality gates, and automated DORA metrics across every major CI provider. This is more than monitoring; it's about preventing failures, removing bottlenecks and eliminating developer disruptions at scale.
This role requires a continued curiosity to explore uncharted spaces while innovating in more established ones. We’re exploring how AI impacts SDLC, predictive failure detection and runtime-weighted test coverage with an appetite to solve hard problems in clever ways. Our users trust us with their observability data and we work hard to put it to good use for them.
At Datadog, we place value in our office culture - the relationships and collaboration it builds and the creativity it brings to the table. We operate as a hybrid workplace to ensure our Datadogs can create a work-life harmony that best fits them.
What You'll Do:
- Owning and accelerating parts of the Software Delivery business: Drive adoption of CI/CD Visibility, Test Optimization, and Code Quality products, optimize customer onboarding, and ensure robust revenue growth across Platform Engineers and Developers.
- Spearhead testing: Drive innovations in flaky test detection and test impact analysis that change how software is validated.
- Define the experience: From intuitive pipeline visibility to intelligent test selection, quality gates, and deployment monitoring - ensuring every developer ships code with confidence and speed.
- Strategize to win the market: Partner with Product Marketing and Sales to perfect positioning while enabling field teams to articulate how we help in the larger Datadog suite.
- Champion customer success: Build deep relationships with enterprises you’ll work with, and replicate how they’ve saved millions in CI costs and hours of developer time for other customers.
Who You Are:
- Experienced Builder: You bring 7+ years as a Product Manager or equivalent technical role, with deep expertise in CI/CD or platform engineering - you've felt the pain of shipping at scale.
- Technically Strong: You possess technical depth with hands-on understanding of modern CI/CD pipelines, testing strategies (unit, integration, E2E), and infrastructure patterns - you can debate monorepo strategies and ephemeral runners with senior architects.
- Storyteller: You’ll attend events, meet customers and build product experiences around a narrative you’ll help craft. We’re big on people.
- Customer Champion: You're obsessed with reducing developer cognitive load and eliminating disruptions, holding an uncompromising regard towards developers’ time.
- Growth Catalyst: You enjoy a fast-paced, high velocity environment, energized by the opportunity to help thousands of engineering teams ship better code, faster.
