TL;DR · Senior Services Architect, Security Cloud SIEM

As a Senior Services Architect, Security-Cloud SIEM, you will join the Implementation Services team to lead the discovery, design, and launch of the platform for customers. You will manage professional services engagements by conducting architecture workshops, planning implementations, and guiding customers through the operationalization of security capabilities across cloud, infrastructure, application, and log data sources. Your daily work involves building and tuning detections, monitors, dashboards, and runbooks while advising on security data strategies like log prioritization and normalization. You will map technical requirements to frameworks such as NIST 800-53, CIS Controls, MITRE ATT&CK, and SOC 2. The role requires expertise in Cloud SIEM, detection engineering, and handling telemetry from sources like Kubernetes audit logs, firewalls, and identity providers to solve complex security monitoring and incident response challenges.

What you'll do

  • Design and lead the execution of Datadog implementations focusing on Security and Cloud SIEM deployment.
  • Map customer security requirements and monitoring objectives to specific Datadog capabilities and industry frameworks like NIST or SOC 2.
  • Advise customers on security data strategies including log prioritization, parsing, normalization, and detection readiness.
  • Build, tune, and document security detections, monitors, dashboards, workflows, and runbooks for incident response.
  • Translate ambiguous customer requirements into practical implementation plans with clear milestones and measurable outcomes.
  • Write automation and design architecture for repeatable deployment templates and security content.
  • Manage the technical execution of projects including scope alignment, delivery planning, and customer communication.
  • Act as a trusted advisor to help customers mature their security monitoring, alerting, and incident response processes.

What we're looking for

  • Experience designing and delivering technical solutions for Cloud SIEM, security monitoring, and cloud architecture.
  • Hands-on experience with security logging and telemetry sources including cloud audit logs, firewall logs, and Kubernetes audit logs.
  • Familiarity with cybersecurity practices such as detection engineering, incident response, and vulnerability management.
  • Ability to map technical requirements to frameworks like NIST 800-53, CIS Controls, MITRE ATT&CK, or SOC 2.
  • Proficiency in translating ambiguous customer requirements into practical technical implementation plans.
  • Strong communication skills for engaging with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Experience leading customer-facing workshops and technical discovery sessions.
  • At least 3 years of experience as an Architect, Consultant, Security Engineer, or similar role in a professional services team.
