Lead Software Application Development Engineer Jobs

Datadog's Technical Solutions (TS) organization is one of the largest organizations in the company — spanning Sales Engineers, Technical Account Managers, Enterprise Customer Success Managers, Technical Support Engineers, and Solutions Architects who work with prospects and customers across every stage of their journey with Datadog. Technical Solutions Operations (TSO) exists to make that organization faster, smarter, and more scalable. We build the systems, analytics & programs that give TS teams more leverage — and we measure our success by the business outcomes we drive, not the projects we complete. The programs this team runs touch every function in TS, and the operating model you build will define how that scales. We're looking for a Director of Technical Program Management to lead the TSO Program Management team. This role sits at the intersection of strategy and execution: you'll own the programs that shape how TS operates at scale, lead a team of technical program managers, and serve as a peer to the Directors and VPs who run the teams you support. Your counterparts are leaders overseeing hundreds of customer-facing technical professionals, and your role is to successfully interface with each organization with proactive solutions on how your team can help them be more effective. This is a rare opportunity to lead a function where the output isn't a deliverable, it's organizational capability. If you want to build something that compounds across an entire organization, this is the role. 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 Run the PMO as a business impact function. Own the PMO operating model end-to-end, including intake, prioritization, scoping, execution, and impact measurement — with every program directly linked to measurable bu

Our goal is to help customers detect root causes faster, optimize application performance, and improve resource efficiency at scale. As the Engineering Manager for APM Serverless, you will help define and deliver the end-to-end serverless APM experience, from auto-instrumentation through troubleshooting, and ensure that OpenTelemetry and Datadog-native customers alike have a frictionless and performant journey. You will also lead efforts to expand coverage of cloud-managed services across providers, ensuring customers can seamlessly trace and monitor critical services in all major and emerging cloud environments. We’re looking for an experienced engineering leader who thrives at the intersection of infrastructure and developer experience. You should care about well-designed APIs, observability-first thinking, and building systems that empower other developers. This is a high-leverage role that will influence how developers across the industry understand and instrument their serverless workloads. 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. What You’ll Do: Lead a polyglot team of 8-9 engineers and partner closely with Product and Engineering teams across Datadog to deliver industry-leading serverless capabilities that power consistent, scalable, and intuitive instrumentation across languages.
