As a Staff Application Security Engineer at Datadog, you'll set technical direction for how we approach application security at scale. You'll define the frameworks, methodologies, and architectural patterns that engineering teams across Datadog adopt and apply independently. You're the person others come to when they don't know how to make something secure, and you reliably have an answer.
You'll be a point of contact for our most complex security programs, often spanning multiple teams and multiple quarters. The role requires both depth (going very deep on specific problems when needed) and breadth (recognizing patterns across systems and drawing connections that others miss). Partnering closely with teams inside and outside the security org is key to success. You'll help shape the AppSec roadmap and make the case for where investment should go.
We use our own platform. Logs, Dashboards, Service Catalog, and APM aren't just things we sell: they're tools the AppSec team uses to build security services, measure adoption of secure defaults, and communicate risk across the organization.
AI is also part of the picture. Engineering at Datadog increasingly uses agentic tooling throughout the development lifecycle, and many of the products we ship to customers now include AI-powered features. Both create new attack surfaces, and defining our strategy for addressing them is part of this role.
If using Datadog to observe Datadog's own security posture, building impactful tooling, and shaping how we secure AI-powered systems sounds like the right kind of problem, this role is worth a close look.
What You’ll Do:
-
Define and drive security standards and secure-by-default solutions, serving as the Application Security subject matter expert.
-
Build security tooling and automation that scales security practices across engineering teams, and implement robust security observability to support our threat detection team with meaningful, actionable security signals.
-
Lead threat modeling and risk assessment for high-risk features and platform changes.
-
Assess and address security risks introduced by agentic development practices and AI-powered product features in production
-
Partner with engineering teams to prioritize and remediate critical threats, define API security standards, and conduct security code reviews.
-
Identify systemic security risks; lead complex, multi-team remediation efforts end-to-end
-
Partner with Cloud & Infrastructure Security and other teams across the org on cross-domain problems; be the AppSec point of contact on complex cross-domain problems
-
Serve as the AppSec subject matter expert across Datadog; be the person engineering leadership calls when they need clarity on a hard security problem
-
Deeply invest in the growth of AppSec engineers on the team
Who You Are:
-
Software engineering background with hands-on code review experience; Go (preferred), Python, or Rust
-
Demonstrated ability to level up the engineers around you: through design reviews, mentorship, and the quality of your documentation
-
Solid grounding in OWASP Top 10, web vulnerabilities (XSS, injection, access control, cryptography), SAST, and DAST
-
Working knowledge of API security: authentication flows, authorization patterns, and input validation at API boundaries
-
Track record of leading threat modeling on complex, multi-team systems and translating outcomes into architectural decisions
-
Experience implementing secure-by-default frameworks and integrating security into core platforms alongside product managers and engineering teams
-
Able to translate business risk into security investment priorities and communicate tradeoffs clearly to executive audiences
-
Familiarity with software supply chain security: dependency management, artifact integrity, and build pipeline trust
-
Bias toward implementing solutions and driving adoption, not just surfacing findings
-
Proven track record of winning buy-in from technical and non-technical stakeholders; able to communicate complex tradeoffs clearly to engineers, product managers, and leadership
-
Current on security best practices, emerging threats, and the tooling landscape
Datadog values 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.
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.

Senior Capture Manager, Federal Systems Integrators - Public Sector
As the Senior Capture Manager, Federal Systems Integrators (FSI), you will lead joint capture and channel coordination across Datadog's federal systems integrator and prime-contractor ecosystem, serving as the connective tissue between those partners and Datadog's internal federal sales teams. You will make sure capture activity happening inside FSI partner organizations is visible to, aligned with, and reinforced by Datadog's own federal sellers, and vice versa, so that partner-led and direct-led motions strengthen a pursuit rather than duplicate or collide with it. The role reports to the Channel & Alliances (C&A) organization and works cross-functionally with federal sales, distribution (Carahsoft, Vertosoft), deal desk, and legal to drive joint capture outcomes on priority federal pursuits.
Travel: Less than 25%
Clearance: An active U.S. government security clearance is preferred but not required. Candidates without an active clearance are encouraged to apply.
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:
- Own the joint-capture strategy and partner alignment for a portfolio of approximately 20 priority federal programs, engaging 12-24 months ahead of RFP release
- Manage each named program as a distinct capture effort, coordinating dedicated engagement across agency stakeholders, FSI partners, and independent software vendors (ISVs)
- Identify requirements, shape acquisition strategy, engage agencies, primes, and partners, and position Datadog ahead of procurement
- Act as the primary liaison between FSI partners and Datadog's internal federal sales teams, ensuring each side knows what the other is doing on a given program
- Build and maintain a documented capture plan for each named program covering mission, stakeholders, funding, acquisition path, competition, partners, Datadog's position, and next milestone
- Identify and resolve channel conflict early, surfacing where a partner-led and direct-led pursuit are converging on the same account or contract vehicle and brokering a single aligned approach
- Partner with distribution (Carahsoft, Vertosoft) to keep pricing, SKU naming, and quoting consistent across contract vehicles, including the GSA Schedule and SEWP (Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement)
- Coordinate teaming strategy with FSI partners, including how partners team with primes and other systems integrators, and flag most-favored-nation (MFN) or pricing-consistency issues to deal desk before they become customer-facing problems
- Coordinate Requests for Information (RFIs) and sources-sought responses in partnership with federal sales, solutions engineering, and other cross-functional stakeholders. This role shapes response strategy and reviews submissions but is not solely responsible for authoring them.
- Advance qualified pursuits through customer discovery, partner teaming, and architectural inclusion, then transfer qualified pursuits to Account Executives (AEs) and Partner Sales Managers (PSMs) for execution
- Build durable working relationships with FSI partner capture and Business Development (BD) leads and with Datadog's federal account teams so coordination happens proactively, not only when escalated
Who You Are:
- 8-10+ years of experience in capture management, channel/alliances, or business development within U.S. federal technology sales, with direct exposure to partner-led (sell-thru) motions through systems integrators or primes
- Experience specifically bridging channel/alliance partners and internal direct sales teams, ideally in a partner-liaison or joint-capture role rather than a standalone direct capture role
- Working knowledge of government contract vehicles (GSA Schedule, SEWP) and how pricing, SKUs, and quoting flow through public sector distributors such as Carahsoft and Vertosoft
- Established relationships with, or experience working alongside, major federal systems integrators and primes
- Working familiarity with cloud infrastructure, observability, cybersecurity, or DevSecOps concepts, sufficient to represent Datadog's technical category credibly with partners and agencies
- Confident resolving channel conflict diplomatically, able to align a partner-side team and an internal federal team on a single approach without either side feeling sidelined
- Able to quickly understand deal structure concepts relevant to multi-partner environments - MFN clauses, teaming agreements, pricing consistency across distributors - and explain them to others verbally and in writing
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including translating between partner-facing and internal-facing audiences
Datadog values 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.
How Success Is Measured:
This role carries defined leading indicators rather than a direct bookings quota, since captures in this motion typically run 12-24 months before transferring to an AE/PSM for close. Success is measured through capture plan completeness and quality, the rate at which programs advance through discovery, partner teaming, and architectural inclusion, and the portfolio's contribution to qualified sourced pipeline and closed bookings over time. Detailed year-over-year targets are tracked internally as part of the C&A scorecard.
Benefits and Growth:
- Meaningful ownership of high-value federal programs from early shaping through capture, with direct influence on how Datadog wins in the federal market
- New hire stock equity (RSU) and employee stock purchase plan (ESPP)
- Continuous professional development, product training, and career pathing
- Sales training in MEDDIC and Command of the Message
- Intra-departmental mentor and buddy program for in-house networking
- An inclusive company culture and the opportunity to join our Community Guilds
- Generous global benefits
Benefits and Growth listed above may vary based on the country of your employment and the nature of your employment with Datadog.
This role carries an 85/15 base-to-MBO pay mix, where MBO refers to Management by Objectives. This is not a quota-carrying position; the MBO component is tied to the leading indicators and outcomes described above. Datadog offers a competitive salary and equity package. Actual compensation is based on factors such as the candidate's skills, qualifications, and experience. In addition, Datadog offers a wide range of best-in-class, comprehensive and inclusive employee benefits for this role including healthcare, dental, parental planning, and mental health benefits, a 401(k) plan and match, paid time off, fitness reimbursements, and a discounted employee stock purchase plan.

The Team
Datadog is an enterprise SaaS company featured in Forbes Cloud 100, Deloitte's Fast 500 Technology list, and Forrester's Intelligence Application and Service Monitoring Wave as a leader. Our team works with a best-of-breed product that solves real problems for our customers and partners.
We are Datadog's in-house product experts and strategic architects of the partner ecosystem. The Partner Technical Solutions team drives Datadog's worldwide growth by shaping how our partners go to market, build services, and create lasting technical differentiation for their customers. We work at the intersection of product strategy, technical depth, and business outcomes - defining the frameworks, programs, and practices that determine how the partner ecosystem scales. Partner Technical Solutions is a growing global team that operates with high autonomy, collaborates constantly across functions, and sets the standard for what technical partnership looks like at Datadog.
The Opportunity
This role is built for someone who has already proven they can operate at the intersection of deep technical authority and executive influence - as comfortable presenting observability architecture to a federal agency CISO as they are rolling up their sleeves to get hands-on with a partner's most complex deployment challenges.
Aligned to our Channels & Alliances business segment, the Principal PSA will report to the Head of North America Partner Solutions Architecture. They are accountable for the technical success of our most strategically important federal and public sector partners - a trusted advisor, a force multiplier, and the definitive Datadog expert in every room they enter.
Specifically, you will
- Own the senior technical relationship with a portfolio of high-value federal and public sector partners, serving as a strategic advisor to partner CTO, CISO, and VP-level stakeholders;
- Lead joint technical strategy sessions and executive business reviews, ensuring alignment between Datadog and partner technical roadmaps at the highest levels of the organization;
- Architect and lead technically complex partner initiatives including federal cloud migrations, zero-trust observability frameworks, FedRAMP-aligned deployments, and large-scale DevSecOps transformations;
- Design and deliver partner enablement programs - workshops, certifications, and technical deep-dives - that measurably elevate partner capabilities;
- Collaborate internally to support partner technical initiatives such as end-customer demonstrations and proofs of value; partner team enablement workshops; assessment, advice, and coaching on lead practices;
- Advocate on behalf of partners' technical concerns (use cases, feature requests, support issues, e.g.) with Datadog internal teams and personnel, helping to bring those concerns to resolution;
- Serve as the authoritative voice of federal partner needs with Datadog's Product, Engineering, and Technical Services teams - driving prioritization decisions that shape the platform roadmap;
- Continuously help curate and evolve lead/best practices for Datadog platform adoption and success.
Requirements
- 15+ years of experience in a customer- or partner-facing technical role, with a demonstrated record of operating at both the executive and deep-technical levels simultaneously;
- Proven track record building and sustaining C-suite relationships in federal or public sector environments;
- Deep familiarity with the federal technology landscape: procurement cycles, compliance frameworks (FedRAMP, FISMA, IL5), and the ecosystem of FSIs, GSIs, and channel partners operating in the public sector;
- A self-starter, tech-savvy professional with exceptional business acumen; the ability to articulate Datadog value from the server room to the boardroom - and every level in between;
- Fluency in English required;
- Desired hands-on experience in five or more of the following areas:
- Observability: Datadog, Splunk, AppD, New Relic, or Dynatrace
- Public Cloud: AWS GovCloud, Azure Government, GCP
- Containerization: Docker, Kubernetes, OpenShift
- Dev/Scripting: Python, Go, JavaScript, Ruby, Bash
- Config Mgmt: Terraform, Ansible, Puppet, Chef
- CI/CD & DevSecOps: Jenkins, GitLab, GitHub Actions
Additional Considerations
- Previous experience in a senior technical role at a federal systems integrator, defense contractor, or public sector-focused ISV;
- Previous experience using Datadog and/or other cloud monitoring tools (APM, Infrastructure, Logs, Synthetics, NPM);
- Previous experience building or scaling partner technical programs;
- Previous experience with root-cause-analysis, troubleshooting, debugging.
