Job description
from Datadog careersWe're a new team building AI-assisted product experiences that help Datadog customers go from investigation to action, by enabling conversational workflows, guided remediations, and codefixes that address the root cause of production issues.
We're looking for a product-minded engineer to help us quickly define and ship applied AI experiences across chat, remediations, and codefixes. This role sits at the intersection of backend engineering, product development, and prompt engineering, with a strong emphasis on building reliable, production-quality AI systems.
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:
- Work closely with product managers, designers, and engineers to build and iterate on AI-powered product experiences in Bits AI SRE.
- Develop customer-facing systems across chat, remediations, and codefixes that help users resolve production issues more quickly.
- Work on prompts, evaluation loops, and backend systems to make applied AI workflows reliable, useful, and production-ready.
- Prototype quickly, test what works in the real world, and iterate rapidly to ship new product capabilities.
- Build the infrastructure and product logic needed to connect AI outputs to meaningful actions, including operational remediations and generated code changes.
