Product Designer - Intern

We’re looking for a product design intern with a passion for building technical tools and data-driven products. Our designers create the UIs that developers around the world rely on: real-time dashboards, data visualizations, incident notebooks, and the design systems and tools that power them. Our work makes the data we collect easy for users to understand and act on.

You’ll join at an ideal time to make a big impact. We are growing rapidly, beginning greenfield projects that are targeted at new user groups, and also refining and expanding on our most impactful existing features.

Students can sign up anytime for a free Datadog Pro account! If possible, please apply using your personal email address instead of your university email address.

This job is available in various departments within our company; to conform to US export control regulations, some of these roles may require candidates to be eligible for any required authorizations from the US government.

At Datadog, we place value in our office culture - the relationships that it builds, the creativity it brings to the table, and the collaboration of being together. We operate as a hybrid workplace to ensure our employees can create a work-life harmony that best fits them.

What You’ll Do:

  • Work with design leaders and product managers 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 propose final features or improvements that make Datadog better
  • Document and present your design to the team and work to get buy-in from key stakeholders
  • Work closely with our Design Systems engineers and our product engineering teams to understand how your designs will be built

Who You Are:

  • You are in the process of receiving a degree, graduating between fall 2025 - summer 2026
  • You are able to work full-time from one of ranges listed below (we are unable to accommodate internships at any other time):
    • May 12 - August 15, 2025
    • May 12 - August 22, 2025
    • June 2 - August 22, 2025
  • You have experience in digital product design
  • Your portfolio includes interaction design work on web applications
  • You are an excellent visual and written communicator, able to clearly document and present your design work and speak to the reasoning for your design decisions
  • You understand systems thinking and component-based design patterns
  • You give and receive feedback well, supporting and improving the work of your colleagues as well as your own

Datadog values people from all walks of life. We understand not everyone will meet all the above qualifications on day one. That's okay. If you’re passionate about technology and want to grow your skills, we encourage you to apply.

Benefits and Growth:

  • Mentorship opportunities with team members, leadership, and beyond
  • Continuous professional development and product training opportunities
  • Intradepartmental mentor and buddy program for in-house networking
  • In-person intern cohort and monthly company social events
  • An inclusive company culture, ability to join our Community Guilds (Datadog employee resource groups)
  • Relocation support and travel benefits
  • Unlimited snacks and drinks in our office; catered lunches on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday
  • Beautiful offices in convenient locations

Benefits and Growth listed above may vary based on the country of your employment and the nature of your employment with Datadog.

Datadog offers a competitive salary for this role and may include additional compensation elements. Actual compensation is based on factors such as the candidate's skills, qualifications, and experience. In addition, Datadog offers a wide range of best in class, comprehensive and inclusive employee benefits for this role including healthcare, paid time off, and benefits related to traveling and relocation, if eligible.

The reasonably estimated yearly salary for this role at Datadog is: $95,000—$100,000 USD
