Staff Product Manager, Metering and Attribution

Revenue Engineering builds the platform that measures how customers use Datadog and turns that measurement into usage and cost data they can act on. Every product Datadog ships is metered here. Every customer who wants to see which team, service, or business unit drove their usage sees it through this layer.

As a Staff Product Manager for Metering and Cost Attribution, you will own product direction for that platform. You will set the standard for how usage is measured, attributed, and presented across Datadog.

The role starts with tagging: the mechanism customers use to attribute usage to owners inside their organization, and the foundation that cost allocation, chargeback, quotas, and governance build on. From there you will shape the metering capabilities that new pricing and packaging models draw on, and extend the platform's speed and scale as Datadog's portfolio grows. Over time you will own the vision and roadmap for a usage platform used by every team at Datadog and relied on by every customer.

The usage layer is the system of record for consumption, and it is what billing draws from. What you own is the path from usage events to billable output, along with the consumption models, cost attribution, and usage analytics that customers and their finance teams use to understand their spend. You will partner closely with the billing platform team across that boundary.

Usage and cost attribution reach across a broad portfolio of billable metrics, several regions, and customers organized into parent and child organizations and reseller hierarchies, and they surface in units and in dollars, in-app, through the API, and in agentic workflows. Designing for that range means making deliberate choices about granularity, timeliness, and flexibility, and holding those choices steady across the many teams that build on them.

This is a highly visible individual contributor role spanning several engineering teams, every product vertical that emits billable telemetry, and partners in Sales, Support, and Finance.

What You'll Do:

• Set product direction for metering and attribution by defining the problems and outcomes that matter from usage events through billable output, holding a multi-quarter view of how the platform should evolve, and collaborating with multiple engineering teams to sequence work into phases that deliver clear customer value along the way.

• Own the tagging model as a customer-facing product, giving customers a consistent way to define tags across every product, translating those tags into granular usage and cost breakdowns wherever they surface, and designing how customers adjust and reconstruct attribution when their tagging changes.

• Define the metering and rating capabilities that pricing and packaging depend on, working ahead of launches on usage aggregation, unit definitions, commitments, included usage, and overage, so that the metering platform stays ahead of Datadog's commercial needs.
