As part of the Query Connectors team, you´ll help build and maintain critical data connectivity infrastructure while constantly exploring and adapting to new technologies and data platforms.

This role combines deep backend expertise with a passion for learning new technologies. While experience with databases and query systems is valuable, we´re primarily looking for engineers who have built robust distributed systems and are excited about expanding their technical breadth.

- Collaborate extensively with teams across Datadog to ensure connectors meet their specific needs
- Drive the adoption of new technologies and best practices within the team
- Opportunity to contribute to open-source projects and broader industry initiatives, making a meaningful difference beyond our platform.

Who You Are:
- You have 5+ years of relevant industry experience
- Strong background in building and maintaining backend distributed systems
- Experience with high-throughput, reliable service design and implementation
- Quick learner who enjoys exploring and adopting new technologies
- Excellent problem-solving skills with complex distributed systems
- Background in databases or query systems is a plus, but not required
- Strong proficiency in at least one of our core languages: Java, Go, or Rust

Technical Environment:

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)
