Product Analytics aims to help developers, product managers and designers understand their users, take data-oriented product decisions and evaluate the impact of technical issues on their customer base. As a Senior Software Engineer on the Product Analytics Backend team, you'll join a new, fast-growing product area. You will help define our technical vision, influence the product roadmap, and solve complex engineering challenges at scale.

In Product Analytics, we consume and process data from multiple sources: clickstreams, user information, and data from third-party systems. Your work will be central to building a robust and flexible system that can ingest, manipulate, correlate and store all this data to have it efficiently queried by our end users.

• Drive technical architecture decisions in alignment with product goals and collaborate closely with frontend and platform teams 
• Work with our core platform teams to tailor Datadog's storage and query solutions to our needs
• Create a strong team culture aligned with our engineering standards and our customer focus
• Participate in hands-on engineering work including coding, code reviews, and design reviews

Who You Are: 

• A seasoned backend engineer with deep expertise in designing and building distributed systems 
• Comfortable influencing technical direction without direct management authority, operating as a technical leader and mentor 
• Interested in working on an early stage project with many challenges to solve and a fast iteration cycle 
• You have a track record of delivering high-quality software products on schedule and collaborating closely with product partners 
• Strong technician, particularly with Go, Java or SQL, who is interested in remaining a hands-on contributor
• You’re excited about leveraging AI tools to enhance how you code, solve problems, and build – or eager to learn how
• You have demonstrated ability to use AI coding tools in day-to-day workflows and validate, critique, and refine AI-generated output
• Bonus: you’re motivated to push the boundaries of how AI can improve software engineering best practices and contribute to building AI-enabled products
