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.

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.
