Software Engineer - Early Career

Lisbon, Portugal

We’re looking for early-career candidates to join us to help collect, aggregate, visualize, and analyze extremely high-scale metrics, logs, and application data. You'll join one of Datadog's software teams and work alongside other engineers to help solve complex problems. Whether you are writing a new integration, building data pipelines, or working with the open source community, our recent graduates are key contributors to our product. Students can sign up anytime for a free Datadog Pro account!

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

What You’ll Do:

• Solve a scaling bottleneck in a critical service
• Deploy a new feature to production and progressively roll it out with feature flags
• Investigate and fix a production issue from a service your team owns
• Create a way to optimize a service to handle more traffic at scale
• In partnership with your team, plan the most important projects to work on next

Who You Are:

• You are in the process of receiving/have a degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering or related scientific field, or equivalent experience
• You are targeting a 2024 full-time start date
• You are comfortable coding in one or more languages
• You value code simplicity and performance
• You want to work in a fast-paced environment that values its employees and customers
• You are a self-starter who enjoys partnering with other engineers and solving difficult problems

Datadog 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 (Datadog employee resource groups) and monthly company social events
• Unlimited snacks and drinks in our office; catered lunches on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday
• Free, global mental health benefits for employees and dependents age 6+

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