Connect to your opportunity
We are seeking experienced Data Security professionals with expertise in both architecture and engineering. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record in leading the design, implementation and testing of data security solutions across cloud and on‑premises environments.
Responsibilities
- Define data security use cases, functional and non‑functional requirements, and technical specifications for data discovery, data access governance, data classification, DLP, encryption, data masking, monitoring and compliance.
- Design and architect data security solutions, creating high‑level and low‑level system architecture diagrams with technical descriptions, dependencies, network rules, server resources, storage requirements and performance specifications.
- Integrate workflows with third‑party systems and security tools (SIEM, Varonis, BigID, Azure, etc.) and define the RACI matrix for operation and maintenance.
- Develop technical documentation for implementations, including process documents for data classification, access requests, governance, approval workflows and data lifecycle management.
- Implement data security solutions: install components, configure on‑premises/cloud environments, deploy agents for DLP scanning, integrate APIs, configure secure data flows and fine‑tune DLP policies.
- Collaborate with IT infrastructure teams, execute unit, integration, functional and non‑functional testing, troubleshoot issues, and coordinate with vendors.
- Provide post‑implementation services, including hyper‑care support and advanced troubleshooting to resolve production issues.
- Conduct knowledge transfer sessions to client data security teams, enabling them to operate and maintain the solution effectively.
- Contribute to the development of data security solution approaches for client proposals and bids.
Connect to your skills and professional experience

- Strong interpersonal and relationship skills with architects and developers.
- Broad data security experience across discovery, classification, DLP, security posture management, encryption, masking, governance and privacy, with demonstrable strategy delivery.
- Experience in developing architecture and hands‑on engineering for data security solutions across the following areas (not all required, but the majority are preferable):
- DLP across email, O365, cloud, web and endpoint channels (e.g., Microsoft, Broadcom, ForcePoint).
- Data classification and data discovery.
- Digital Rights Management (e.g., Microsoft).
- Data security across Azure, AWS, Oracle and Google Cloud using third‑party DLP tools or native cloud capabilities.
- Encryption technologies such as KeyFactor, HashiCorp Vault, AWS KMS and Azure Key Vault.
- Data Security Posture Management and Data Governance tools (Microsoft, Varonis, BigID) for discovery, classification, access monitoring and threat detection.
- Understanding of data privacy regulations (GDPR, CCPA), governance frameworks and emerging trends.
- Exposure to DevOps tools and repositories (Git, Azure DevOps, Kubernetes, Docker, Jenkins, Ansible).
- Practical experience with Linux and Windows operating systems.
- Experience with modern data security concepts such as data‑centric security, zero‑trust data access, data‑security posture management and cloud‑native protection.
- Understanding of data privacy regulations (e.g., GDPR, CCPA) and governance frameworks.
- Practical experience with Linux and Windows operating systems.
- Certification such as CISSP, CISM, CIPP/E or Microsoft Certified: Security, Compliance, and Identity Fundamentals is desirable.
Hybrid working policy
