Description du poste

Staff Software Engineer - REDAPL Resource Graph

Paris, France

We are looking for a Staff Engineer to help us take REDAPL, our Referential Data Platform, to the next level.

REDAPL is Datadog's main platform for tracking our customers' infrastructure resources and relationships. The platform enables products where customers can understand, keep track of, and gain insights into their infrastructure related to performance, cost, security, and more.

Several Datadog products use REDAPL today (for example, Cloud Security Posture Management, Resource Catalog, Cloud Cost Management, and Service Catalog) and several more are in various stages of development. Ingest and query volumes are rapidly increasing across the platform.

As a Staff Engineer, you will drive, lead, and collaborate on projects both inside and outside the platform. You can expect to contribute to key technical decisions relating to our data ingestion, processing, and query pipelines.

At Datadog, we value our office culture—the relationships and collaboration it fosters and the creativity it inspires. We operate as a hybrid workplace to ensure our Datadogs can create a work-life harmony that suits them.

What You’ll Do:

• Contribute to design and drive high-priority, high-visibility projects to increase the platform's value, resilience, and scalability across multiple teams.
• Serve as a technical anchor for the team.
• Lead and guide other engineers through architectural platform decisions.
• Identify potential system risks and trends in reliability, and design solutions to address them.
• Provide input on prioritizing engineering initiatives in short- and long-term planning and roadmaps.
• Collaborate with internal product teams to understand their requirements and plan for their growth as they integrate with REDAPL.

Who You Are:

• You have a BS/MS/PhD in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
• You have helped bootstrap a new team from scratch.
• You have extensive experience with multiple data stores, including Graph Databases such as Neo4j, Memgraph, JanusGraph, ArangoDB, Amazon Neptune, or PuppyGraph.
• You have contributed to initiatives in platform or infrastructure environments for several years.
• You have led impactful technical initiatives where performance, cost efficiency, ease of use, and resilience are priorities.
• You have significant back-end engineering experience, building and operating distributed systems at high scale.
• You enjoy mentoring and coaching other engineers.

We understand not everyone will meet all qualifications on day one. If you're passionate about technology and eager to grow your skills, we encourage you to apply.

Benefits and Growth:

• Build tools for software engineers and use them to accelerate development.
• Influence product direction and impact the business.
• Work with knowledgeable, kind teammates who are eager to teach and learn.

Benefits may vary based on location and employment type.
