PROFILE

Wynbennett

Wyn Bennett developed advanced authentication features for Datadog’s Go-based infrastructure, focusing on security and flexibility. In the DataDog/datadog-api-client-go repository, Wyn implemented delegated token authentication, allowing API clients to authenticate without relying on static API or app keys, which enhances security and supports more adaptable authentication flows. For the DataDog/terraform-provider-datadog project, Wyn delivered cloud-based AWS authentication, enabling keyless access through AWS credentials and organization UUIDs. This work involved updating provider schemas, configuration logic, and validation, streamlining onboarding and aligning with security-by-default practices. Wyn’s contributions demonstrate depth in Go, API development, AWS integration, and Terraform provider engineering.
