Security Engineer III – Data Loss Prevention

As a Security Engineer III in Data Loss Prevention, you’ll take the lead in deploying, managing, and fine‑tuning data loss prevention (DLP) and data protection tools across our enterprise systems. Your mission is to keep sensitive information safe by implementing strong technical controls, optimizing DLP policies to cut down false positives, and ensuring compliance with regulations like GDPR and HIPAA. You’ll dive into threat modeling, fix vulnerabilities, and automate security configurations using scripting and infrastructure‑as‑code tools.

A solid background in cloud, network, and application security is key, along with hands‑on experience with DLP platforms such as Symantec, Microsoft Purview, or Zscaler.

This role gives you autonomy while working closely with IT, Dev Ops, and compliance teams to embed security into everyday workflows. You’ll also mentor junior engineers, support incident response, and translate technical risks into clear, actionable guidance for stakeholders.
