In this role, you’ll partner with People and business leadership to deliver analyses, dashboards, and insights that shape how we hire, develop, retain, and support Datadogs across the world.

What You’ll Do:

• Partner closely with People Business Partners, Recruiting, and senior leadership to conduct custom, scoped analyses, translating ambiguous business questions into structured analyses to answer priority workforce questions
• Conduct research studies and analyses to support programmatic decision making and key initiatives across the employee lifecycle
• Build and maintain dashboards, reports, and recurring metrics readouts (e.g., hiring funnel, performance, movement, retention, sentiment, org design)
• Maintain high standards of data quality, privacy, and governance when working with sensitive employee information

Who You Are:

• 6+ years of experience in people analytics, go-to-market or sales analytics, or a related quantitative role
• Strong analytical skills with proficiency in SQL and Google Sheets, and experience working with BI tools (e.g., Tableau, Metabase, Looker); proficiency in Python a plus
• Familiarity with people systems and data sources (e.g., ATS, HRIS, LMS, Survey Platforms), as well as metrics throughout the employee lifecycle
• A sharp, credible partner to senior leaders, able to clearly surface people analytics needs and translate complex analyses into insights that drive decisions and behavior change
• A naturally curious, analytical mindset with a drive to uncover the “why” behind the data
• Ability to maintain privacy, maturity and discretion while handling sensitive data
