We are seeking a motivated and pragmatic Product Counsel to join our small team of collaborative and friendly lawyers who are partners and counselors to Datadog’s Product and Engineering teams by embedding with them throughout the product development lifecycle from ideation to development, launch, go-to-market, and post-sales support.
What You’ll Do:
- Counsel our Product and Engineering teams on key legal issues for B2B SaaS products, including artificial intelligence, intellectual property, open source, marketing, technical partnerships, and competition, and partner cross-functionally to align legal guidance with business goals.
- Draft and negotiate complex inbound and outbound technology agreements, including product terms, partnership agreements, license agreements, vendor contracts.
- Revise and maintain public-facing product documentation, API terms, EULAs, website terms, and acceptable use policies.

- Support specialized programs (e.g., public-sector compliance, M&A diligence) in coordination with subject-matter experts across Legal, Privacy, Infosec, and other teams.
- Monitor evolving legal regimes (e.g., AI, data protection, telecom, and export controls) and translate them into scalable product requirements and processes.
