Clara Poncet developed cloud-native testing and security features across DataDog’s system-tests and dd-trace-java repositories. She delivered a Java AWS Lambda Runtime, enabling Java-based tests to execute in serverless environments by integrating new configurations, dependencies, and handlers with AWS services. In dd-trace-java, Clara enhanced AWS Lambda application security by integrating with WAF, refactoring instrumentation for better query parameter handling, and optimizing performance through reduced allocations and improved logging. She stabilized test isolation by restoring the original tracer after each test, ensuring reliable results. Her work demonstrated depth in backend development, application security, and testing using Java, Groovy, and Python.
April 2026 monthly summary for DataDog/dd-trace-java: Delivered AWS Lambda AppSec integration with WAF, including instrumentation refinements for query parameter handling, comprehensive unit tests, and logging/performance optimizations to reduce allocations; improved data processing path for Lambda contexts. Stabilized the test suite for LambdaAppSecHandler by restoring the original tracer during cleanup to prevent inter-test interference.
