About The Position

Datadog's Software Engineers with Systems depth leverage their experience with systems and tooling to build software that ensures Datadog remains reliable, performant, and secure. For this track, their Software Engineering experience may resemble the Distributed Systems track, but is typically applied in combination with their systems experience to build and run internal platforms and tools that our products are built on. These people typically have deep experience building and managing large cloud infrastructure deployments, or leading reliability efforts for orgs similar to ours, or building release machinery to allow hundreds or thousands of devs to do their jobs without stepping on each others' toes. The systems and tooling where they may have experience depth may include (but not limited to): bazel, build tooling, cassandra, CDN, chef, configuration management, container orchestration, consul, docker, elasticsearch envoy, haproxy, kafka, kubernetes, load balancing, network architecture, postgres, redis, release management, RPC frameworks, service discovery, spinnaker, terraform, zookeeper.
