Datadog
Company overview
Datadog sells a SaaS platform for monitoring, security, and observability, used by engineering and IT teams to understand systems, applications, and infrastructure. The company’s products cover areas like metrics, logs, traces, incident response, and cloud security. Datadog serves organisations ranging from startups to large enterprises, and the company operates at very high data scale as part of the core product. Datadog is publicly listed and headquartered in New York City.
Locations and presence
Datadog’s global headquarters is in New York City, with major hubs across the Americas, EMEA, and Asia Pacific (including cities such as Boston, Denver, San Francisco, Paris, Dublin, Madrid, Lisbon, Amsterdam, Singapore, Tokyo, Seoul, and Sydney). Datadog describes a hybrid workplace model, and Datadog also states that early-career roles are primarily office-based in a defined set of locations (with expansion as offices grow).
Datadog offers strong early-career access through a recurring internship pipeline across multiple functions, plus clear signals that interns get real product work rather than shadowing. Datadog is fairly transparent about interview stages, but public expectations on timelines and feedback are still limited, and candidate experiences look mixed depending on role and region. Datadog’s learning support looks well-built for early-career hires, while longer-term outcomes are harder to judge because Datadog does not publish early-career conversion, retention, or promotion metrics.
