Datadog Leadership & Management

Datadog Employee Perspectives

My focus is to inspire people and focus on their growth, to be here to back them up and support them and to ensure they have everything they need to be ready for the next step. I grow along with them to prepare them for that next step.

From the article: Building a Humble and Open Engineering Team with Datadog's Daniela da Cruz

Through internal promotions and external hires, I have tried to create a culture of coaching and enablement. When I look at the leadership team that we have and the impact that they have made so far, I feel like I’ve succeeded.

Leadership means creating the conditions where smart people can try bold things. That’s how we’ll discover what works, what doesn’t, and what’s next.

Datadog Employee Reviews

I’ve grown so much here – not just in title, but in mindset. From Sales Development Representative to Director, what’s made the biggest difference is the people: mentors, managers, and teammates who always show up, challenge you, and help you get better.

Tammy, Director, Commercial Sales

I started out in Commercial Sales, but my goal was to move into Enterprise Sales, and Datadog gave me the mentorship, opportunity, and support to get there. As a woman in tech sales, it’s incredibly rewarding to speak confidently with leaders at some of the world’s best-known companies. We’re equals in the conversation, and that makes a difference.

Olivia, Enterprise Sales Executive

Now that I’m leading my own team, I try to create an environment that’s supportive, empathetic, and vulnerable. I really do believe that when people can be themselves at work, they will put their best foot forward. It’s also clear that those characteristics build trust, and when failures do happen, we can learn and we grow from them together.

Sean Schaab, Sales Engineering Team Lead
