What You'll Do:
• Develop and execute regional field marketing programs - including campaigns, account-based marketing, and events - that drive pipeline and strengthen Datadog's brand in market

• Act as the regional point of contact for field marketing strategy, keeping regional leadership and global marketing ops aligned on status and risks
• Build toward a broader regional field marketing remit beyond events as the role and region matures
Who You Are:
