## About the role

Datadog’s Recruiting Operations team is on a mission to scale and optimize the Recruiting organization through operational efficiency, best-in-class tooling, analytics, and programs. We are looking for a Program Manager to own our sourcing tools and workflows and to build the capability that lets our sourcers find and engage the people who will build the next decade of Datadog. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Experienced in recruiting operations, HR technology, or a related field, with a track record of owning a platform rather than only executing projects within one
- Genuinely excited about AI and what it can do for recruiting, with hands-on experience evaluating or deploying AI-powered tooling — and the judgment to be skeptical where skepticism is warranted
- Thoughtful about responsible AI and candidate data privacy in hiring, including bias and fairness, transparency, human oversight, and the regulatory landscape around automated employment decision tools
- Hands-on with a recruiting CRM (Gem strongly preferred) and LinkedIn Recruiter, and deeply familiar with how sourcing works day to day — ideally from having sourced yourself
- Experienced at driving and sustaining tool adoption, with concrete examples of moving a team from low to high usage and keeping it there
- Commercially capable — comfortable owning vendor relationships, building a business case, forecasting license needs, and holding your own in a renewal conversation
