Qualifications

Key Responsibilities: Design and implement AI-driven deployment gates that assess customer deployments using CI/CD context and Datadog telemetry, resulting in secure and interpretable allow/block decisions. Own evaluation and rollout processes: establish precision, recall, and trust metrics; develop both offline and online evaluations; confirm changes in shadow mode; and safely integrate enhancements into enforcement mechanisms. Focus on robustness and safety: set conservative defaults, create guardrails, develop fallbacks, and establish human-in-the-loop processes to ensure predictable gate behavior with noisy or incomplete data. Collaborate closely with Product Management: Partner with the Product Manager to convert customer challenges, adoption signals, and roadmap objectives into actionable technical decisions and iterations. Integrate with various teams across the Datadog platform: Collaborate with internal AI teams working on Faulty Deployment Detection, as well as teams focused on LLMs and AI agents.

About the job

Join Datadog, a leader in cloud monitoring and observability, where we harness the power of AI to enhance our platform's capabilities. Our mission is to streamline monitoring, accelerate incident resolution, and ensure data integrity for cloud applications.

The Deployment Gates team is at the forefront of creating innovative, customer-centric systems that determine the readiness of software for production. These systems play a crucial role in CI/CD pipelines, utilizing observability data to answer a pivotal question in software delivery: Is this deployment safe to proceed based on our current knowledge?

As a Senior AI Engineer, you will:

  • Advance Deployment Gates from static rules to AI-driven decisions, leveraging Datadog telemetry to identify and prevent faulty changes before they reach users.
  • Lead the design and implementation of progressive deployment automation, starting with conservative AI rules and evolving towards adaptive gates that learn from incidents and organizational behaviors.
  • Create frameworks for autonomous remediation, linking code changes to production issues, enabling capabilities to block and roll back unsafe deployments while suggesting fixes and enforcing policies.

This role is ideal for someone with a strong product mindset, as you will engage in the entire lifecycle from problem discovery and user experience to delivering reliable, scalable production systems.

At Datadog, we value our office culture - the relationships we build, the creativity we foster, and the collaboration that arises from working together. We embrace a hybrid work model to help our employees achieve a balance that suits their lifestyle.
