Title: Senior Datadog Architect & Implementation

Engineer

Location: Remote

Role Summary

This person will own the Datadog side of a multi-account

AWS observability rollout across Dev, UAT, and Prod for a portfolio of AI agent solutions using Bedrock, Bedrock AgentCore, Lambda, and ECS. This is a hands-on implementation role, not an advisory position. The expectation is working software by the end of the engagement: live dashboards, correctly firing alerts, and visible traces.

Responsibilities

- Design and deploy the organization-wide AWS integration using CloudFormation StackSets across Dev, UAT, and Prod, including the cross-account IAM role.
- Build and maintain the CloudWatch Logs-to-Datadog pipeline using the Forwarder Lambda and subscription filters, along with the metrics polling configuration.
- Enable CloudWatch Transaction Search and configure

Datadog’s AWS X-Ray integration for AgentCore trace and span data.
- Build tag-driven dashboards and cost/token-usage views by environment and solution, using the AWS tag taxonomy.
- Define and tune alert thresholds and monitors,





configure notification routing, and support the Datadog platform in production.

Required Skills

- Robust hands-on Datadog implementation experience,

including AWS metrics polling and log forwarding through the Datadog Forwarder

Lambda in a multi-account environment.

- AWS Organizations, CloudFormation StackSets,

cross-account IAM roles, and organization-wide rollout experience.
- Working knowledge of OpenTelemetry, AWS X-Ray,

distributed tracing, metrics, and logs.
- Hands-on experience with Lambda, ECS/Fargate, and

CloudWatch Logs and Metrics.
- Ability to implement against an existing architecture and work through security and compliance IAM reviews.
- Strong cross-team delivery and production support experience.

Please prioritize candidates who have personally implemented

Datadog in a multi-account AWS environment, rather than candidates who have only used Datadog dashboards and monitors.
