<h3><strong>About Datadog</strong></h3>

<p>We're on a mission to build the best platform in the world for engineers to understand and scale their systems, applications, and teams. We operate at a high scale - trillions of data points per day — providing always-on alerting, metrics visualization, logs, and application tracing for tens of thousands of companies. Our engineering culture values pragmatism, honesty, and simplicity to solve hard problems the right way.</p>

<h3><strong><br>The Opportunity</strong></h3>

<p>We are looking for an experienced software engineer to join our CI/CD Security Team within our SDLC Security organization. We work at the intersection of security and engineering infrastructure to secure Datadog's continuous integration and continuous delivery systems. Our responsibilities include hardening pipelines, protecting credentials, and enforcing tightly scoped access controls. We also develop authorization and verification mechanisms to ensure that only trusted code and approved processes can reach production.</p>

<p>In this role, you will shape and build a new security layer for our CI/CD infrastructure and drive its adoption across the engineering organization. You will solve challenging systems problems around trusted build provenance, secure secret delivery, and real-time policy enforcement at high throughput. The work sits directly in the critical path of software delivery, where strong security guarantees have to coexist with low latency, high reliability, and a seamless developer experience.</p>

<p>You’ll join at an ideal time to make a big impact, as the need for robust software supply chain security is higher than ever. Datadog is growing rapidly, and AI-assisted development is increasing both the pace of software delivery and the amount of activity flowing through our CI/CD
