At Datadog, we do require a business-level English and Japanese language skill set as we are a global company, and you’ll have the opportunity to interact with colleagues all over the world, while also conducting business and demos with partners and customers across Japan.

Currently, we can only accept applicants with valid work visas for Japan.

In addition to your annual leave entitlement and 17 paid holidays, all Datadog employees in Japan are eligible for discretionary paid time off, meaning that we give employees the freedom and flexibility to take vacation time and personal days as needed.

For our expecting Moms and Dads, we offer up to 16 weeks of paid leave for birthing parents, and up to 8 weeks for non-birthing parents.

We provide a generous benefits package that aims to support the health and well-being of our employees and their families.

1) Application Review:

Our recruiting team kicks off the process by reviewing your resume and credentials. You’ll hear from one of our recruiting team members if we think you are a good fit for the position, and we’ll set up some time to chat.

2) Interview:

Our interviews take on average, 2-4 weeks, depending on schedules. We make sure you’ll meet with potential peers, manager, and possibly an executive. While our processes may vary from role to role, you can expect a combo of 1-2 phone interviews, 1-2 on-site interviews, and something like a coding assignment or case study.

3) Selection:

We make our hiring decisions based on the best possible fit for the role. Our teams rate each candidate based on the set of criteria that we’ve designed for each role, and we review feedback from each interviewer to make a thoughtful hiring decision. The recruiting team will follow up with you on an answer after the interview.

4) Interview Survey:

We will send you a post-interview survey so that you can rate how we’re doing. Your feedback is important to us, as we’re constantly looking to improve our interview process and the candidate experience.

Due to the impact of COVID-19, Datadog members are working from home for the foreseeable future with no plans in place to return to the office until it’s safe for our employees to do so.

We believe in maintaining a healthy work-life balance for employees both in Japan and around the world.

That’s why we offer a generous paid time off program with the flexibility to take the time you need to do everything from pick your child up from daycare to take a long weekend to relax and recharge.

At Datadog, diversity means making a conscious effort to reflect the many experiences and identities of the world outside, while treating each other with fairness and without bias.

Inclusion is the choice we make every day to foster an environment where people of all backgrounds not only belong, but excel, so that together, as a company, we can succeed.

In order to support our growing families, we offer best-in-class benefits to help Datadogs navigate parenthood at any stage.

We’re also excited to now offer virtual at-home kids activities to ensure our Datapups stay active and healthy during these times.

In addition, we have a variety of parent-led channels in Slack that give our global employees the chance to ask and share advice, photos, ideas and more with other parents across the company.
