Job Description
APM is one of Datadogs foundational product pillars. Its where customers go to understand how their business is running. One of Datadogs strengths is the breadth of our product suite and APM is where our app based products are connected to form an observability experience thats greater than the sum of its parts. This requires frictionless setup and product enablement for all products in the suite as well as a centralized control for easy management.

This is the problem the Ecosystems Enablement group was created to address.
