## Description

Datadog is seeking an Indirect Tax Manager to oversee U.S. sales and use tax compliance, support related audits, and coordinate VAT/GST obligations across our global entity portfolio.

You will partner with external advisors and cross-functional teams to address evolving indirect tax requirements, strengthen controls, and embed tax considerations into business systems and processes.

This role offers the opportunity to manage complex, multi-jurisdictional workstreams while helping scale a global indirect tax function.

**Responsibilities**

- Review U.S. multi-state sales and use tax filings prepared by the team, ensuring accuracy and alignment with established nexus and taxability positions.

- Support U.S. sales and use tax audits, notices, and inquiries by coordinating documentation, technical analysis, external advisors, and communications with tax authorities.

- Coordinate VAT/GST compliance and recovery activities across Datadog’s international entity portfolio, partnering with advisors across EMEA, APAC, and LATAM.

- Monitor changes in nexus, taxability, VAT/GST, e-invoicing, and e-reporting requirements, and communicate relevant impacts to internal stakeholders.

- Partner with Accounting, Revenue, Legal, Procurement, and Engineering to incorporate indirect tax requirements into billing systems, ERP configurations, controls, and new market or product initiatives.

- Develop and maintain process documentation, audit-readiness materials, workstream tracking, and SOX-aligned controls that support a scalable indirect tax function.

**Requirements**

- Experienced in progressive indirect tax roles within public accounting, an in-house tax function, or a combination of both.

- Knowledgeable in U.S. multi-state sales and use tax, including nexus analysis, taxability, compliance, and audit support.

- Familiar with international VAT/GST regimes and experienced coordinating compliance across multiple jurisdictions and external advisors.

- Experienced using tax determination and ERP systems; experience with Avalara and NetSuite is preferred.

- Able to manage multiple concurrent workstreams, analyze detailed financial information, and maintain accuracy in a fast-moving environment.

- A clear communicator who can translate technical indirect tax matters for Finance, Legal, and business stakeholders.

**Benefits and Growth**

- Expand your expertise across U.S. sales and use tax and international VAT/GST matters.

- Gain experience supporting a global, multi-entity tax function in a growing technology business.

- Partner with teams across Finance, Legal, Procurement, Revenue, and Engineering.

- Develop practical experience with tax technology, automation, e-invoicing, and systems implementation.

- Strengthen your capabilities in audit management, process design, internal controls, and cross-functional program delivery.

- Contribute to the development of scalable processes and operating practices for a global indirect tax organization.
