Job description
from Datadog careersYou will lead a small, hands-on engineering team building the secure, scalable Core Analytics Data Access Platform that accelerates Datadog’s Applied AI and analytics capabilities. The team owns the Data Access Platform — a unified interface that lets AI and analytics teams discover and self-serve production-ready datasets while abstracting underlying systems and embedding required legal and compliance guardrails. In this role you’ll own technical direction, contribute to design and code, and partner closely with Applied AI, Product Analytics, and internal platform teams to provide reliable datasets and APIs for model training and analysis. This role balances day-to-day engineering leadership with long-term platform planning.
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:
- Lead a Hands-On Engineering Team: Manage, mentor, and grow a small team of 2–4 data engineers (mix of senior and junior) across Paris and NYC, fostering technical excellence and career development.
- Own Technical Direction and Delivery: Define architecture, engineering priorities, and the team roadmap for the Data Access Platform, driving implementation of scalable, secure data pipelines and platform services.
