We’re looking for curious, driven interns to join our Product Management team and help shape the future of our platform. As a PM intern, you’ll play a key role in the product development lifecycle, collaborating closely with Engineering, Design, and Product Marketing to bring ideas to life.
Whether you’re excited about owning a product from concept to launch, solving complex problems for technical customers, or seeing your work directly improve the user experience, you’ll find those opportunities here. As Datadog and the cloud observability space continue to grow rapidly, you’ll have the chance to refine your product vision, adapt to evolving market needs, and influence real strategy at scale.
At Datadog, interns work on the same impactful initiatives as full-time PMs. Our platform processes over 100 trillion events per day across 30,000+ customers in a multi-cloud environment. You’ll contribute to building large-scale, real-time systems by engineers, for engineers, and leave your mark well beyond the internship.
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. Our hybrid workplace ensures our employees can create a work-life harmony that best fits them.
Students can sign up anytime for a free Datadog Pro account!
