We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer who brings strong backend and distributed systems experience to join our Cross-Product Query (XPQ) organization. As part of the Query Connectors team, you'll help build and maintain critical data connectivity infrastructure while constantly exploring and adapting to new technologies and data platforms.

This role combines deep backend expertise with a passion for learning new technologies. While experience with databases and query systems is valuable, we're primarily looking for engineers who have built robust distributed systems and are excited about expanding their technical breadth.

At Datadog, we place value in our office culture - the relationships that it builds, the creativity it brings to the table, and the collaboration of being together. We operate as a hybrid workplace to ensure our employees can create a work-life harmony that best fits them.

 

What You’ll Do:

  • Design and implement distributed systems that enable seamless data connectivity across Datadog's ecosystem
  • Lead technical discovery processes with product teams to understand their data access requirements
  • Build and optimize backend services that power our data connectivity infrastructure
  • Explore and evaluate new technologies to enhance our connector capabilities
  • Collaborate extensively with teams across Datadog to ensure connectors meet their specific needs
  • Drive the adoption of new technologies and best practices within the team
  • Opportunity to contribute to open-source projects and broader industry initiatives, making a meaningful difference beyond our platform.

 

Who You Are:

  • You have 5+ years of relevant industry experience
  • Strong background in building and maintaining backend distributed systems
  • Experience with high-throughput, reliable service design and implementation
  • Quick learner who enjoys exploring and adopting new technologies
  • Excellent problem-solving skills with complex distributed systems
  • Background in databases or query systems is a plus, but not required
  • Strong proficiency in at least one of our core languages: Java, Go, or Rust

Technical Environment: 

  • Programming Languages: Java, Go, Rust
  • Query Engines: Trino, DataFusion
  • Storage Systems: Postgres, Apache Iceberg, Cassandra, Elasticsearch
  • Cloud Platforms: AWS, GCP, Azure
  • Infrastructure: Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform
  • Build Systems: Bazel
  • CI/CD: GitLab
  • Workflow Orchestration: Temporal

Datadog values people from all walks of life. We understand 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 skills, we encourage you to apply. 

 

Benefits and 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 in-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+
  • Competitive global benefits

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