Full Job Description
Datadog is seeking curious, driven interns to join our Product Management team and help build products that improve how engineers monitor and understand their systems. As a Product Management Intern, you'll support the product development lifecycle by partnering closely with Engineering, Design, and Product Marketing to bring new ideas and features to life. You'll gain hands-on experience working on products that serve highly technical customers while contributing to meaningful business and user outcomes. Interns are embedded directly within product teams, working on meaningful initiatives alongside full-time Product Managers and contributing to actual product decisions. Our platform processes over 100 trillion events per day across 30,000+ customers in a multi-cloud environment -- giving you direct exposure to large-scale, real-time systems built by engineers, for engineers. It's an environment where you'll develop product thinking, technical communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills by doing the work, not just observing it.

At Datadog, we place value in our office culture - the relationships and collaboration it builds and the creativity it brings to the table. We operate as a hybrid workplace to ensure our Datadogs can create a work-life harmony that best fits them.

What You'll Do:
  • Conduct customer discovery conversations and gather feedback to better understand user needs
  • Drive product initiatives from concept through launch alongside Engineering, Design, and Product Marketing teams
  • Translate customer and business needs into clear product requirements and engineering priorities
  • Analyze customer feedback, product data, and market insights to help inform product decisions
  • Prepare and deliver technical product demonstrations and communication materials
  • Develop technical understanding of Datadog's observability platform and cloud infrastructure products


Who You Are:
  • Targeting a 2028 full-time graduation or start date
  • Pursuing a degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field
  • Prior internship, project, or academic experience in product management, software engineering, or another product-focused technical role
  • Exposure to B2B software product development and ability to communicate technical concepts clearly while collaborating with engineers and other technical stakeholders
  • Interested in emerging technologies, including AI-powered developer tools and cloud technologies

    • Winter:
      • Jan 4, 2027 - April 23, 2027

        June 7, 2027 - September 3, 2027

Datadog values people from all walks of life. We know 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 experience, we encourage you to apply.

Benefits and Growth:
  • Work on meaningful technical challenges alongside engineers across the globe
  • Participate in mentorship and buddy programs designed to support learning and development
  • Join an in-person intern cohort and expand your network through engineering talks, social events, and community engagement opportunities throughout your internship
