We're looking for a Product Designer that can understand the container observability needs of developers and turn them into elegant and delightful products. Containerization technology is evolving fast, so while a solid foundation in cloud computing concepts is helpful, we are looking for someone that is excited and curious about this space, and has experience learning new technologies first-hand. As the designer on the Containers Observability team you'll work with a talented team of technologists and subject matter experts to understand customer needs, and design workflows that meet them. You'll also be a member of a supportive pod of infrastructure product designers that collaborate to improve each other's work and create useful cross-product experiences.

Work with product managers, engineers, and data scientists to understand how our customers use Datadog and what they need to succeed
See your design work through from start to finish: turn insights from user research into ideas, sketch and prototype to bring them to life, and ship products and features that make Datadog better
Become an expert in your product area
Communicate both your design work and the support for your design decisions across the company
Work closely with engineering teams to understand how your designs will be built
