Developer Advocates at Datadog are engineers who share their expertise with practitioners across the community - customers and non-customers alike. As an Engineering Manager I on the Advocacy team, you will be a key people and technical leader. You'll manage a small team of Developer Advocates focused on Application Development and Performance, driving value in developer communities while championing modern software development practices
What You’ll Do:
Lead a team of Developer Advocates, guiding their work priorities, identifying new career opportunities, and fostering a positive, high-performance culture
Contribute to defining the team’s OKRs (objectives and key results) and team strategy, driving the execution of these
Ensure your team consistently ships high-quality output, removing technical and procedural roadblocks to help them do their best work
Strike a balance between management and hands-on delivery, contributing high-quality technical content (e.g., videos, talks) as needed to support the team, represent Datadog, and stay in touch with the work
Work across various internal teams, including Product, Engineering, and Marketing to ensure they are supported across the growing number of Advocacy initiatives and help prioritize requests
