Sean Schaab, a Sales Engineering Team Lead at Datadog, has experienced personal and professional growth in his role. He initially joined the company as a Solutions Engineer after completing a bootcamp in web development, but struggled with feeling disconnected from himself due to his gender identity. After accepting himself and coming out at work, he became an advocate for LGBTQIA2S+ inclusion within the company, supporting initiatives such as adding pronouns to Slack profiles and Zoom. Sean's leadership style emphasizes empathy, vulnerability, and trust-building, which has helped him thrive in his role and create a supportive environment for his team. He is proud to be part of the Rainbowdogs Community Guild, an LGBTQIA2S+ community guild within Datadog, where he has made lifelong friends and feels seen.
