Description du poste

We’re looking for an Engineering Manager to lead our Sensitive Data Scanner (SDS) Telemetry team. The SDS group’s mission is to be the world’s easiest-to-use tool to discover, classify, manage, and report sensitive data risks across cloud, on-premise, and code environments. This team builds and scales the detection capabilities that scan all telemetry data flowing into the company — logs, APM spans, and RUM events — operating in streaming, at processing time, and at very large scale. You’ll lead a small, close-knit team based in Paris, with the opportunity to shape how the team grows as SDS Telemetry’s scope expands. It’s a chance to combine hands‑on technical leadership with direct customer and product impact in the security and observability space.

At the company, 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:

• Lead and grow a team of engineers building real‑time sensitive data detection across the company’s Logs, APM, and RUM telemetry pipelines
• Partner closely with the Logs, APM, and RUM teams, plus the company’s Trust & Safety team, to align on roadmap and integration priorities
• Shape product direction by working closely with Product, grounding decisions in customer needs and business impact
• Stay hands‑on: contribute to design decisions and participate in the team’s on‑call rotation
• Recruit, mentor, and develop engineers as the team grows beyond its initial size
• Help build a strong engineering culture as part of the company’s broader Sensitive Data Scanner group

Who You Are:

• You have experience building and shipping revenue‑generating products, with strong product acumen and a customer‑first mindset
• You have hands‑on experience with Go and/or Java, and a track record building distributed, streaming systems at scale
• You have experience managing engineers — or are ready to step into your first formal management role — and know how to set goals, give feedback, and help a team grow
• You measure success through customer and business outcomes, not just output shipped
• You’re comfortable weighing tradeoffs between speed and correctness, ideally from experience in a fast‑moving environment

the company values people from all walks of life. We understand 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 skills, we encourage you to apply.

Benefits and Growth:

• New hire stock equity (RSUs) and employee stock purchase plan (ESPP)
• Continuous professional development, product training, and career pathing
• Intradepartmental mentor and buddy program for in‑house networking
• An inclusive company culture, ability to join our Community Guilds (the company employee resource groups)
• Access to Inclusion Talks, our internal panel discussions
• Free, global mental health benefits for employees and dependents age 6+
• Competitive global benefits

Benefits and Growth listed above may vary based on the country of your employment and the nature of your employment with the company.
