Job Description:

Staff Software Engineer - Frontend (EMEA)

Lisbon, Portugal

Datadog’s Staff Engineers are our technical leaders operating at the forefront of technology, building solutions that take us through at least our next five years of growth. They do this in three major ways:

As individual contributors, they bring
- class technical abilities to deliver
- leading systems in areas such as data visualization, virtual runtime profiling, and
- scale streaming. As technical leaders, they bring experienced technical breadth and communication skills to tackle design and architectural problems spanning the organization, charting the right course, and then leading delivery.

In both roles, they participate in the staff engineering community and help us learn from what the industry is doing and what we've built before, and so improving
- wide standards around software and systems engineering.

Examples of projects you might take on as a staff engineer include designing and implementing a major improvement to a system or tool that many application engineering teams depend on, developing a new Datadog product line from initial outline to public launch (and beyond), or breaking down a complex UX problem, solving the fundamental workflows, and polishing your solution until it feels intuitive.

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
- life harmony that best fits them.

What You’ll Do:

• Use your expertise to design and deliver technology that will power the next generation of products
• Take
  - team decisions that will influence the Datadog frontend community at large
• Lead through example and excellence, helping the people around you grow
• Improve processes on your team, and across the whole of frontend engineering

Who You Are:

• 4+ years of technical leadership experience, including both effective communication of complex concepts and experience coordinating across teams to ship critical products
• Strong UI/UX intuition, adept at working closely with product design and product management stakeholders to develop a shared vision and deliver on it
• Ability to bring best practices from across the world of software engineering and adapt them to the frontend environment
• Knowledge of React and Type
  Script

Datadog values people from all walks of life. We know not everyone will meet all the above qualifications on day one. That’s okay. If you’re passionate about technology and want to grow your experience, we encourage you to apply.

Benefits & Growth:

• New hire stock equity (RSUs) and employee stock purchase plan (ESPP)
• Continuous professional development, product training, and career pathing
• Intradepartmental mentor and buddy program for
  - house networking
• An inclusive company culture, ability to join our Community Guilds (Datadog employee resource groups)
• Access to Inclusion Talks, our internal panel discussions
• Free, global mental health benefits for employees and dependents age 6+

Benefits and Growth listed above may vary based on the country of your employment and the nature of your employment with Datadog.
