Director, Engineering - Graphing and Visualization
Datadog · New York, New York, USA

Graphing and Data Visualization is the organization responsible for how customers explore, analyze, and visualize complex data across our product. You will lead a global team spanning graphing, dashboards, data visualization, notebooks, search experiences, and emerging AI-powered interfaces, partnering closely with Product and Design to make complex data intuitive and actionable. You will shape the technical and organizational strategy for experiences that help a broad range of users work effectively with their data, including new ways for AI agents to create consistent, high quality Datadog experiences. This is an opportunity to lead a highly specialized engineering organization whose work reaches across the Datadog product while advancing how customers interact with increasingly complex data.

_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._

- Advance AI-powered product experiences by enabling agents and conversational interfaces to reliably create graphs, visualizations, and dynamic data experiences
- Influence product and engineering strategy across Datadog by bringing deep expertise in visualization, performance, user experience, and large-scale product engineering

**Who You Are:**

- An experienced engineering leader who has led a large, multi-team engineering organization and developed engineering managers and senior technical leaders
- Experience leading engineering teams responsible for data-intensive products, visualization platforms, analytics, business intelligence, notebooks, or other products where presenting complex information clearly is central to the user experience
- A strong partner to Product and Design, with experience making technical and product decisions where usability, visual quality, and engineering architecture are closely connected
- Technically grounded, with a computer science or equivalent technical background and the ability to engage deeply on software architecture, performance, and systems tradeoffs
- Experience building performant product experiences and solving engineering challenges involving large or complex datasets, responsive interfaces, or computationally intensive workflows
- Interested in how AI-assisted development and agent-based interfaces are changing the way users create, explore, and interact with software and data
