PROFILE

Wynbennett

Worked on the DataDog/terraform-provider-datadog repository, focusing on authentication improvements and bug fixes over a two-month period. Delivered an enhancement that prioritized cloud authentication over API and application keys, reducing misconfiguration risk and strengthening security for Terraform provider users. Addressed a critical bug by implementing delegated token authentication for SDKv2 resources, ensuring proper authorization headers and preventing 401 Unauthorized errors. Refactored the authentication flow to align with generated API methods and improved test reliability by enabling direct inspection of request headers. Demonstrated skills in Go, API development, backend development, and testing while contributing to maintainable and secure provider code.
