Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolIrene Kors is a product leader with 20+ years of hands-on engineering and five years focused in senior product management roles, now driving APM product strategy at Datadog from New York. She blends deep technical experience across real-time trading systems, distributed in-memory platforms, and developer tooling with a customer-first approach honed at AWS where she led SDK launches and maintenance policy for enterprise languages. Known for turning complex technical constraints into pragmatic product roadmaps, she has led cross-functional teams through major launches (including multiple AWS SDKs at re:Invent) and deprecation campaigns that balanced developer experience with long-term platform health. Her background as a technical lead and software engineer at institutions like Knight Capital and the New York Times gives her rare fluency in both low-latency finance systems and large-scale content platforms. Colleagues rely on her to synthesize developer feedback into measurable product outcomes while keeping technical debt and operational resilience front and center. She combines engineering rigor with a strategic product lens, making her effective at shipping developer-facing infrastructure and observability features that scale.
