Oath has flagged the Tumblr: Security Engineer job as unavailable. Let’s keep looking.

As an Application Security Engineer, you will integrate and engineer scalable security solutions throughout each phase of the software development lifecycle (SDLC) to protect our customers from potential security threats and attacks. We work closely with product and platform engineers across various domains of the Datadog stack, driving a culture of empowering engineers to have strong security ownership of their products and services through the development of security resources and tools that help promote a secure by default model. Not only do we partner with engineering teams to identify security risks that can impact our overall security posture, we work alongside them and collaborate to develop security solutions and standards to mitigate these risks to our customers and their data. You will be involved in every step of the team’s work: discussing with other teams, designing projects, building and operating them (in a full DevSecOps manner).

You’ll join at an ideal time for making a big impact. Our product is seeing very high growth, with the platform becoming more interactive and new products and features being developed regularly including products for the Security space.

At Datadog, we value people from all walks of life. We understand not everyone will meet all the above qualifications on day one. That's okay. If you’re passionate about technology and want to grow your skills, we encourage you to apply.

What You’ll Do:

  • Develop security guidance, then work with engineering teams to align new features to achieve world-class security. 
  • Build security into Datadog’s SDLC from design to development, testing, deployment, and even in the use of our products by customers.
  • Discover the top security challenges we face and partner with teams across the company to be hands-on in implementing your security recommendations.
  • Empathize with the full spectrum of our customers and our engineers by advocating for effective solutions that scale with the needs of our business and our customers.
  • Conduct threat modeling to new and existing products to identify security gaps and prioritize impactful, effective risk mitigation
  • Leverage Datadog’s home-grown security products to secure our application, and provide internal feedback that enables our teams to improve the products for ourselves and our customers.

Who You Are:

  • Passionate about advocating for and implementing solutions to complex problems, at-scale, in a large multi-cloud environment.
  • You don’t want to just provide security recommendations, you want to help implement them.
  • You have prior experience in Development Operations, Software Engineering, Security Architecture, Application Security or Offensive Security.
  • Fluent in one or more modern coding languages (Python, Go, JavaScript, etc.).
  • Have experience with one of the major cloud providers (AWS, Azure, GCP) and infrastructure workloads (Kubernetes or containerization).
  • Able to work both independently and collaboratively, willing to work in a fast paced, high growth environment.
  • You stay updated with modern security best practices, technologies and emerging threats

Benefits and Growth: 

  • New hire stock equity (RSUs) and employee stock purchase plan (ESPP)
  • Continuous professional development, product training, and career pathing
  • Intradepartmental mentor and buddy program for in-house networking
  • An inclusive company culture, ability to join our Community Guilds (Datadog employee resource groups)
  • Access to Inclusion Talks, our internal panel discussions
  • Free, global mental health benefits for employees and dependents age 6+
  • Competitive global benefits
  • Benefits and Growth listed above may vary based on the country of your employment and the nature of your employment with Datadog.
