About the role
Find every place where a flag decision and an observability signal should talk to each other - rollout gating, anomaly-triggered rollback, experiment diagnostics - and ship a roadmap that unlocks observability and experimentation differentiators in Datadog Feature Flags Work closely with the observability, RUM, and APM teams to make flags a real signal across the platform
What they're looking for
- You have +5 years of experience working closely with engineering teams, ideally as an engineer yourself, with a track record of owning a product area end to end
- You have +2 years writing code that shipped to production through a full release cycle, and know what to expect from CI/CD, flagging, and observability tools because you've used them
- You have real technical understanding of software architecture - why teams trade off server vs. client compute, and how browser and native apps differ
- You have excellent written and verbal communication skills: you read and listen fast, write and speak clearly, and can talk to engineers as a peer
- You have B2B experience - you've personally helped close deals, you know what makes developer docs and devex good, and you can diagnose and fix enablement problems across a large sales team
- You are AI-fluent: you've shipped code with agentic tools yourself and know firsthand where AI tooling creates friction in the SDLC
More about this role
At Datadog, we're on a mission to build the best platform in the world for engineers to understand and scale their systems, applications, and teams. We operate at high scale, enabling seamless collaboration and problem-solving among Dev, Ops, and Security teams globally for tens of thousands of companies. Our engineering culture values pragmatism, honesty, and simplicity to solve hard problems the right way.
Feature flags used to be simple on/off switches. That's changing fast. Flags are becoming a control plane: they're tied to observability, they drive rollout decisions, and AI agents build and run more of this work every day. Datadog is building the platform for that future, and we are now expanding our Feature Flagging & Experimentation product to pair flag decisions directly with observability signals and to modernize the flagging workflow for an SDLC increasingly run by agents.
As a Senior Product Manager for Feature Flagging, you will own product strategy and drive execution across flags-plus-observability integration and agentic-era flagging workflows. You will set direction for a critical area of the roadmap, work closely with the observability, RUM, and APM teams, and...
