Datadog is looking to build AI-assisted tools to make their developers more effective by autonomously generating tests, fixing bugs, and improving performance.

Requirements

  • You’re a backend engineer with at least 5 years of professional experience (Go, Java, Python) who values code simplicity and performance.
  • You’ve shipped software that uses LLMs to production.
  • You have relevant experience with Large Language Models, large-scale systems and data sets, machine learning, or adjacent fields.
  • You have experience writing developer tools (such as IDEs, static code analysis tools, or compilers).

Responsibilities

  • Work closely with our users, designers, PMs, and data scientists on cutting edge and delightful LLM-based agents.
  • Work on prompts, evals, and agent tools for working with code, and on the engineering to productionize these systems and integrate them with Datadog products.
  • Prototype and see what works well in the real world, iterate closely with our users, and then ship.
  • Follow the latest research on LLM prompting, agents, and code editing.
  • Work with other Datadog teams to expand capabilities, for example integrating with the Datadog IDE extensions to deliver a CoPilot-like assistant, or Dynamic Instrumentation to collect more runtime data from production and pre-production environments.

Other

  • We operate as a hybrid workplace to ensure our Datadogs can create a work-life harmony that best fits them.
  • You are a great community ambassador and can drive hard technical conversations towards a pragmatic solution.
  • You want to work in a fast, high-growth startup environment that respects its engineers and customers.
  • Datadog values people from all walks of life.
  • Datadog is an Affirmative Action and Equal Opportunity Employer
