Manager I, Engineering - Trust & Safety, Internal Trust

The Opportunity

As part of the Datadog’s Security Engineering organization, the Internal Trust team’s mission is to give our customers complete confidence that their data is safe and secure. We aim to eliminate the possibility of malicious access while building transparent and honest customer relationships. The foundation of this work is a pragmatic approach to the security controls we build that protect access to customer data.

You’ll lead a team focused on building security solutions that help us identify sensitive customer data, and guarantee that it’s protected from internal and external threats. You will bring expertise in a few of these areas:

Data Security

Build tools to survey the state of data storage and access at Datadog. Discover unsafe usage, communicate the risk, and assist teams to build safer solutions that fit their needs.

Trust, transparency, and control:

Coordinate between different parts of the organization to identify risky access to customer data, and advocate for intelligent solutions that safeguard customer assets. Build features that share actionable information with customers and enable customers to control their own security in terms of our access to their data.

Engineering and advocacy

: Propose, champion, and build new security-related features to deliver on our goals. We provide direct engineering effort within other teams’ codebases which allows us to share ownership of security goals.

Improve The Security Of Our Internal Tools

Assess security maturity, build guardrails to ensure safety and consistency for our internal tools, and directly build auditing and alerting in collaboration with product teams.

Detection & Response

Build scalable detection rules and response processes related to misuse of access, process mistakes, external access to internal infrastructure, etc. We collaborate closely with product teams to provide feedback as users and share in the responsibility of alert review.

At Datadog, we place value in our office culture - the relationships and collaboration it builds, and the creativity it brings to the table. We operate as a hybrid workplace to ensure our Datadogs can create a work-life harmony that best fits them.
