• Design, build and maintain detection and telemetry capabilities across Datadog, SentinelOne, Wiz and related security platforms
• Develop, test and tune high-fidelity Datadog detection rules aligned to real-world attack scenarios and adversary behaviors
• Improve alert quality by reducing false positives, eliminating noise and increasing detection accuracy
• Design and maintain Datadog log pipelines, processors, parsing rules, facets, indexes, archives and retention strategies
• Implement and mature detection-as-code practices for scalable, version-controlled and testable rule management
• Define and enforce logging, telemetry and instrumentation standards across cloud infrastructure, applications, endpoints and identity systems
• Build and optimize log ingestion, parsing, normalization, enrichment and routing workflows
• Automate onboarding of new telemetry sources and improve visibility across production and corporate environments
• Correlate signals across Datadog, EDR, cloud, identity and security platforms to improve detection depth and investigation quality
• Partner with Security Operations to improve triage workflows, incident response readiness and escalation quality
• Build Datadog dashboards, monitors, analytics and reporting that support operational decision-making across Security, SRE and Engineering
• Map and maintain detection coverage against MITRE ATT&CK and identify telemetry and detection gaps
• Perform detection gap assessments and evolve use cases based on threat intelligence, threat hunting and emerging risks
• Collaborate with cloud, infrastructure, product and compliance teams to strengthen secure logging and observability patterns throughout the software development lifecycle
• Use AI-assisted tools such as Claude, ChatGPT or similar platforms to support query development, detection engineering, investigations, automation and technical documentation

Requirements

• 4+ years of Datadog experience in detection engineering, SIEM engineering, security engineering, and security observability.
• Deep, hands-on production experience administering and engineering Datadog in complex cloud environments
• Strong experience with Datadog Cloud SIEM, Log Management, Security Monitoring, dashboards, monitors and alerting
• Experience designing and maintaining Datadog log pipelines, processors, parsing rules, facets, indexes and retention strategies
• Experience building, testing and tuning detection rules, correlation logic and investigation workflows in Datadog
• Strong understanding of security telemetry across cloud, endpoint, identity and application environments
• Experience with log parsing, normalization, enrichment and pipeline management
• Strong knowledge of AWS and cloud-native infrastructure
• Proficiency with scripting or automation using Python, PowerShell or similar languages
• Experience using Datadog APIs, Terraform or similar infrastructure-as-code tools to automate configuration and platform management
