Cost Estimation Manager in New York

At Datadog, we’re on a mission to build the best platform in the world for engineers to understand and scale their systems, applications, and teams. We operate at high scale, enabling seamless collaboration and problem-solving among Dev, Ops, and Security teams globally for tens of thousands of companies. Our engineering culture values pragmatism, honesty, and simplicity to solve hard problems the right way. The Observability Data Platform (ODP) is the backbone of everything Datadog delivers – powering how data is ingested, stored, routed, and surfaced across every product at planet scale. As a Senior Product Manager for ODP, you will work with world-class engineers and cross-functional partners to shape how the platform is deployed, controlled, and operated. You will define product direction across the control plane and data layer, translate complex infrastructure trade-offs into clear roadmap decisions, and help customers get the most from their observability investment – regardless of architecture, topology, or scale. 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 Will Do: Develop a deep understanding of the Observability Data Platform customers – platform engineers, SREs, and product managers that own the product verticals – their infrastructure challenges, deployment topologies, and cost-to-serve trade-offs. Define product direction across multiple ODP surfaces, including the control plane and data layer, by articulating clear problem statements and desired outcomes, and partnering with engineering on technical approach and sequencing Lead conversations with design partners and strategic customers to understand real-world platform pain points, validate product assumptions, and guide solutions from early prototypes through General Availability Develop a co

Datadog is seeking a Director of Product Management for Platforms to lead the internal platforms that power our global engineering organization. This is both a customer and internal platform leadership role, focused on enabling Datadog customers to maximize value with Datadog but also to enable other Datadog products to build, scale, and operate products efficiently and reliably. In this role, you will bring a combination of technical expertise, product management experience, and a deep understanding of platform and shared capabilities to help Datadog grow its leadership position. You will lead a team of product managers and collaborate with senior leadership in product, engineering and design. Your scope includes driving product features shared across all Datadog but also large-scale Datadog’s platform solutions. What You’ll Do Own the vision and strategy for platform products, ensuring alignment with overall company goals and customer needs. Identify new opportunities for innovation and drive them from concept to execution, ensuring they have a measurable impact on customers and the business. Define product roadmaps and manage the prioritization of features and initiatives to ensure the team's efforts are aligned with business goals. Drive Platform Adoption: Partner with engineering and product teams to ensure widespread adoption of shared platforms and shared features, reducing duplication and accelerating delivery. Improve Operational Efficiency: Improve developer velocity, time-to-production, and operational efficiency across Datadog’s engineering ecosystem. Collaborate with cross-functional teams including engineering, design, data science, marketing, and sales to deliver infrastructure product solutions that meet customer needs and business objectives. Define and Track Success Metrics: Define and track platform success metrics, including adoption of platform capabilities, reduction in internal toil, time-to-production improvements, cost efficienc

We’re looking for someone to join the Datadog Procurement team and help expand the Strategic Sourcing group. Make an impact by being a trusted analyst in several buying categories and continue to prove the value that Strategic Sourcing brings to the organization. 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: Leverage AI tools (e.g., Claude, ChatGPT) to enhance market research, accelerate data analysis, and improve efficiency in sourcing workflows Identify opportunities to incorporate automation and AI into procurement processes to drive scalability and smarter decision-making Support and execute sourcing strategies directed by sourcing managers with a specific focus in G&A categories (People Team, Finance, Legal, Real Estate) Develop strong relationships with stakeholders and assist teams to independently evaluate their best practices and adopt a value-driven mindset when purchasing on behalf of the organization Lead and execute Sourcing events (RFx) Negotiate pricing and other business terms with vendors on net-new purchases and renewals Manage the renewals list for designated categories and ensure accuracy of information and proactive communication Analyze spend data and identify potential cost savings opportunities Create pricing models based on vendor proposals to quantify various buying scenarios Build license forecast models and utilization analyses for enterprise software renewals to help uncover usage and savings opportunities Collaboratively align with adjacent functions like FP&A on utilization and forecast models Operate effectively in ambiguous or evolving problem spaces, helping bring structure, clarity, and forward momentum to loosely defined sourcing initiatives Monitor market trends that impact spend categories and

As a Research Scientist on our team, you will partner with Research Engineers, working on fundamental research problems and collaborating with Datadog's product and engineering teams to translate research advances into products. Building on our track record of AI-powered solutions (e.g., Bits AI , Bits Evolve , and our time series foundation model ), Datadog AI Research tackles high-risk, high-reward problems grounded in real-world challenges in cloud observability and security. We are focused on two research areas: World Models for Observability -- Training multimodal foundation models that learn the joint dynamics of distributed systems across metrics, traces, logs, topology, and events. These models power advanced forecasting, anomaly detection, root cause analysis, counterfactual simulation ("what if?"), and provide a learned planning backbone for our autonomous agents. Trained Agents for Observability -- Post-training models to operate autonomously across Datadog's domain. SRE incident response is our first target, with a clear path to code repair, security response, and infrastructure optimization. We build the simulation environments, RL training loops, and evaluation infrastructure needed to train agents that match or surpass frontier models at a fraction of the cost. What You'll Do: Conduct research in generative AI and machine learning, building specialized foundation models and trained agents for observability Train multimodal models on large-scale, diverse telemetry data (metrics, logs, traces, topology, events) using distributed training infrastructure Design and build simulated environments and RL training loops for on-policy agent training and evaluation Collaborate with cross-functional teams (Product, Engineering) to integrate capabilities like multimodal world modeling and autonomous agents into Datadog's products Stay at the forefront of foundation models, world models, and RL-based agent research Contribute to r
