The role
The Team:
As a Security Engineer 2 on the Cyber Threat Intelligence team, you will help Datadog stay ahead of evolving threats by identifying, analyzing, and operationalizing intelligence on threat actors, campaigns, and emerging threats. Working within Security Engineering, you will partner closely with security teams to translate intelligence into actionable security improvements across the company. You will serve as a subject matter expert on how the cyber threat landscape intersects with Datadog and contribute to intelligence-led decision making during both steady-state operations and active security incidents. This role provides opportunities to influence detection, response, and security strategy through technical analysis, collaboration, and intelligence-driven initiatives.
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.
What You’ll Do:
• Develop and maintain tooling that automates the collection, processing, analysis, and dissemination of threat intelligence.
• Assess emerging vulnerabilities, threat activity, and security events to help stakeholders understand potential impact to Datadog.
• Conduct threat hunting and infrastructure analysis to identify adversary activity relevant to Datadog and improve defensive controls.
• Partner with security teams to operationalize intelligence into detections, investigations, and response workflows.
• Coordinate with information-sharing communities to gather, evaluate, and disseminate actionable intelligence.
• Produce technical briefings, threat reports, and intelligence products for security and engineering stakeholders.
