Data Security & DLP Analyst

Data Security & DLP Analyst (AI Training) About The Role

We're partnering with leading AI research labs to build AI systems that genuinely understand how sensitive data is exposed, detected, and protected in the real world. To do that, we need experienced data security professionals who know how breaches and policy violations actually happen — not just in theory, but in practice. This is a rare opportunity to apply your security expertise in a new and meaningful way: shaping the next generation of AI reasoning around data risk.
