We’re interdisciplinary thinkers leveraging diverse business backgrounds to accelerate Datadog’s global growth. We work directly with Datadog’s most senior leaders to set strategy, improve efficiency across the business, support data-driven decision-making, own complex operations, and more. In this role, you will be key to identifying areas for revenue growth, helping Datadog make data driven decisions, and designing and executing on strategic initiatives across our Channels & Alliances organization.

Requirements

At least 5 years of relevant experience in enterprise go-to-market strategy, channels & alliances, revenue operations, or similar.
Prior people management experience.
Confident and low ego leader, recognizing that when your team shines you shine alongside them.
Strong sense of ownership: will own and measure outcomes alongside our channels & alliances business.
Proven ability to develop actionable recommendations and process improvements from qualitative and quantitative data and coach others to do the same.
Experience working closely with executive level stakeholders.
Thoughtful about how AI and automation can improve operational efficiency and decision-making; you see AI as a tool to free up space for strategic thinking rather than a replacement for it.
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.
