PROFILE

Alon Amsalem

Worked on the DataDog/datadog-static-analyzer repository, delivering a robust secret scanning endpoint and subsequent performance improvements. Focused on backend development using Rust, the work included designing and implementing structured API request and response models with thorough input validation and enhanced error handling. Refactored data flow to improve security and maintainability, aligning new features with existing endpoints for consistency. Introduced a caching mechanism and optimized JSON rule handling with RawValue-based storage, reducing CPU usage and memory overhead during concurrent scans. These changes established a solid foundation for future security features while improving scan throughput and code quality across the project.
