About the role

<p data-renderer-start-pos="215" data-local-id="9c03ffd59c47">Datadog's client SDKs run inside our customers' mobile apps and websites, and every Datadog client-side product depends on them, including Real User Monitoring, Session Replay, Product Analytics, and Feature Flags. We maintain 11 open source SDKs across Browser, iOS, Android, React Native, Flutter, Kotlin Multiplatform, Unity, and more.&nbsp;</p> <p data-renderer-start-pos="556" data-local-id="8f8d86b9cd1f">&nbsp;</p> <p data-renderer-start-pos="558" data-local-id="d4b51c5266b7">As the Engineering Manager for Client SDKs, you'll build and lead the team that makes it easy for any team at Datadog to ship into those SDKs safely: fast CI, predictable releases, a shared spec across SDKs, and tooling that lets engineers and coding agents contribute without waiting on a review queue. It's a rare chance to own a developer platform that ships in public, at a scale where small decisions reach a lot of customers, and to shape how Datadog builds client-side products in the AI-native era. Both the team and its scope are expanding, so there's plenty of room to grow.</p> <p data-renderer-start-pos="1144" data-local-id="c6a69a6751f3">&nbsp;</p> <p data-renderer-start-pos="1146" data-local-id="7aef1bb028d2"><em data-renderer-mark="true">At Datadog, we place value in our office culture - the relationships and collaboration it builds and the creativity it brings to the table. We operate as a hybrid workplace to ensure our Datadogs can create a work-life harmony that best fits them.</em></p> <p data-renderer-start-pos="1395" data-local-id="2018ed9e7108">&nbsp;</p> <p data-renderer-start-pos="1397" data-local-id="19ac52ea1d4c"><strong data-renderer-mark="true">What You'll Do:</strong></p> <ul class="ak-ul" data-local-id="141c414110d1" data-indent-level="1"> <li> <p data-renderer-start-pos="1416" data-local-id="c0fdb6d9afd1">Build, lead, and grow a team of mostly senior software engineers, hiring well and helping senior and staff engineers grow their impact and careers</p> </li> <li> <p data-renderer-start-pos="1566" data-local-id="4a242ca8649a">Own CI and test infrastructure across the SDK repositories: set health targets, detect and quarantine flaky tests, and provide test frameworks that engineers and coding agents can run locally</p> </li> <li> <p data-renderer-start-pos="1761" data-local-id="7485705fd393">Define release cadences and help customers adopt updates, managing breaking changes in SDKs that can't be rolled back once they're insta
