From the job posting
We are seeking a motivated and experienced Technical Program Manager to join Datadog’s Technical Solutions organization. This organization is made up of 1,200+ customer-facing technical experts around the world — including Sales Engineers, Technical Account Managers, Support Engineers, and Solution Architects — who work with prospects and customers throughout their journey with Datadog to deliver outstanding experiences and drive growth through product adoption. As a Technical Program Manager, you will lead and support a variety of technical programs that help these customer-facing teams work more effectively. Depending on the needs of the organization, this could include programs related to internal tooling, process improvement, knowledge and content systems, or other cross-functional initiatives. You’ll partner closely with team leads, subject matter experts, and other stakeholders to bring structure and clarity to moderately complex, cross-team programs, and you’ll act as a multiplier for the teams you support by driving programs from planning through delivery. Candidates who have previously led projects for customer-facing technical teams are especially encouraged to apply. At Datadog, we place value in our office culture - the relationships and collaboration it builds and the creativity it brings to the table. …

Why this is a Stretch role
The posting asks for 3 or more years of experience in a specific field outside teaching. The posting says: “3-5 years of experience leading technical programs in a SaaS or technical environment, ideally including cross-team or cross-functional initiatives” It can still be worth a look if you have that experience from before or alongside teaching. Skills that often transfer to project management: planning a year at a time, juggling many stakeholders, deadlines and logistics, clear status updates.
