Employer immigration record

from this employer's Department of Labor filings

Green-card filing pattern in this occupation

Context, not a finding about this posting: of this employer's 11 green-card filings in this occupation, 100% were for a worker who already held the job.

Files H-1B transfers

15 transfer filings in the last year, covering 15 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 8 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.

Sourced from Department of Labor LCA, PERM and prevailing-wage disclosure data. Employer matching is by name, so figures may be split across an employer's legal entities. Absence of a filing means none appears in our copy of the data, not that none exists.

About the role

  • We use AI to surface risks earlier, accelerate program execution plans, and find cross-team patterns that would otherwise stay hidden.
  • The faster teams move, the more essential it is to have someone who can operate across them.
  • What We Expect: These are the expectations we hold for every TPM at Datadog. - Technical depth, product domain expertise, and AI systems literacy; knowing how AI solutions work, where they fail, and the scope and impact of those failures.

Responsibilities

  • Own large cross-functional programs spanning multiple engineering orgs, product, and business functions
  • Build and maintain SVP-level visibility through tracked KPIs on Datadog's highest-priority initiatives
  • Build automation that reduces the need for coordination, eliminating program overhead so engineers and PMs spend time only on work requiring human judgment
  • Drive the shift from manual coordination to self-executing program infrastructure

  • Demonstrated ability to drive large, ambiguous, cross-functional programs to completion with minimal direction
  • Drive Completion: Move The Company's Most Complex Bets Forward
  • Lead programs across four archetypes: deep technical, large cross-functional, product delivery, and operational

Requirements

  • 5+ years of technical program management at a high-growth technology company
  • Track record of earning trust with senior engineering and product leadership - not through title, through judgment
  • You have built something, a tool, a template, an automated workflow, that other people use
  • You automated a program lifecycle or workflow that previously required manual coordination
  • You have operated in observability, infrastructure, data platforms, or AI/ML environments and can speak to the technical architecture, not just the program execution
  • You have managed programs with real unit economics implications - cloud cost, capacity, margin

Skills

  • Identify what matters before anyone asks, and automate the rest
  • Engineer program lifecycles end-to-end

Compensation

  • $184,000 - $230,000 USD
