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.

• 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
