As a Senior Product Manager for Product Analytics, you’ll play a pivotal role in shaping the future of analytics at Datadog. You’ll focus on deeply understanding customer needs—especially the ones that are difficult to articulate—and turning them into robust, scalable product capabilities rooted in strong system design. Working cross-functionally with engineering, design, and go-to-market teams, you’ll help define core analytics experiences that span data models, AI-assisted workflows, and real-world product usage. This is a high-impact, senior-level role with significant influence on product direction and customer outcomes.
At Datadog, we place value in our office culture - the relationships and collaboration it builds and the creativity it brings to the table. We operate as a hybrid workplace to ensure our Datadogs can create a work-life harmony that best fits them.
What You’ll Do:
- Define and maintain a customer-driven product roadmap grounded in usage patterns and evolving analytics needs
- Conduct deep customer discovery to uncover underlying goals, pain points, and mental models of product and business reasoning
- Translate user needs into product abstractions like event schemas, metrics, semantic layers, and business context
- Collaborate with engineering and data science to shape scalable systems, APIs, and workflows
- Design intuitive, trustworthy analytics experiences that balance flexibility with guided defaults and AI assistance
- Partner cross-functionally with sales, marketing, and adjacent product teams to support positioning, packaging, and customer conversations
Who You Are:
- 5+ years of experience in product management or adjacent technical/analytical roles
- Strong interest in analytics products, data systems, or developer tooling
- Skilled at navigating both system architecture and user experience design
- Able to synthesize ambiguous input into clear, impactful product decisions
- Curious and motivated to explore how AI can transform complex workflows
- Excellent communicator with a collaborative approach to working with engineers, designers, and customer-facing teams
