Who can apply?
- Applicants should be pursuing computer science, software engineering or a related technical degree, or have equivalent practical experience.
- The posting targets candidates planning a 2028 full-time start rather than publishing one universal undergraduate class-year rule.
- Candidates need computer-science fundamentals in data structures, algorithms and software design plus comfort in at least one programming language.
- Applicants must be available full time in the Boston or New York office for one of the three published 2027 date ranges.
The $100,000–$110,000 figure is an annualized salary range, not a statement that an intern earns that total during the summer. Confirm the actual pay cadence and term with Datadog.

Our editorial advice · not employer requirements
How to prepare a stronger application
Review data structures and algorithms, but also prepare an engineering ownership story from design through deployment or testing. Explain what you measured and how you found a failure rather than presenting only the finished result.
Choose one area from the posting—distributed systems, Kubernetes, infrastructure, data engineering or developer tooling—and build enough vocabulary to ask a precise question. You do not need to claim professional production-scale experience.
