About the Role

At Datadog in the Technology space, Observe, Secure, and Optimize Modern Cloud Infrastructure at Scale.

Datadog’s Recruiting Operations team is on a mission to scale and optimize the Recruiting organization through operational efficiency, best-in-class tooling, analytics, and programs.

You will be the person who tells the difference, decides what Datadog adopts, designs the workflows that put it to work, and makes sure we use it in a way that is fair to candidates and defensible to regulators. Datadog builds for the AI era; we want our recruiting function to operate like it.
