In this role, you will own the strategy and execution for RUM's onboarding and expansion, ensuring consistent user experience throughout the product.

- Partner with marketing, customer success, and technical writing to deliver intuitive, well-documented features
- Communicate feature releases internally and externally to drive go-to-market success and product discovery
- Own and measure outcomes in partnership with sales, technical solutions, and marketing teams
Datadog operates as a hybrid workplace, valuing office culture for collaboration and creativity while supporting work-life harmony.
Requirements:
- Minimum 3+ years of Product Management experience, ideally in enterprise software serving technical audiences
- Prior engineering background OR deep understanding and knowledge of frontend technologies and troubleshooting workflows (crash analysis, performance optimization, network latency diagnosis, etc.)
- Strong sense of ownership and ability to drive outcomes across cross-functional teams
- Customer-focused mindset with high quality standards
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills; ability to present and defend ideas to technical stakeholders and executives
- Datadog values diverse backgrounds and encourages applications from those passionate about technology even if not all qualifications are met on day one
