The Senior Data Security & Cryptography Engineer is responsible for the end-to-end protection of the Client’s most sensitive information. This is a highly specialized engineering role that sits at the intersection of data privacy, software development, and advanced mathematics.

You will design and implement the cryptographic foundations of our Client's infrastructure—from certificate lifecycle management to secure data pipelines for AI/ML. Your mission is to ensure that data is secure at rest, in transit, and in use, while maintaining strict alignment with global privacy standards like GDPR.

• Architect and implement cryptographic protocols (e.g., TLS 1.3, AES-256, RSA, ECC) and explore emerging Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) standards.
• Manage the full certificate lifecycle and Public Key Infrastructure (PKI).
• Design and maintain Key Management Systems (KMS) and Hardware Security Modules (HSM) to ensure secure storage and rotation of cryptographic keys.

• Lead data discovery and classification initiatives to identify sensitive data across structured and unstructured environments.
• Engineer and tune Data Loss Prevention (DLP) controls to prevent unauthorized exfiltration.
• Design secure data pipelines specifically for analytics and AI/ML environments, ensuring data masking, tokenization, or differential privacy where required.

• Implement Privacy by Design principles into new products and services, ensuring alignment with GDPR and ISO 27701.
• Develop technical controls for data residency, sovereignty, and subject access requests (DSAR).
• Perform cryptographic reviews of internal applications to identify weak algorithms or insecure implementations.

• Crypto/PKI:
  OpenSSL, Hashi Corp Vault, AWS KMS, Azure Key Vault, or Thales/Entrust HSMs.
• DLP/Discovery:
  Microsoft Purview, BigID, Varonis, or Netskope.
• Data Platforms:
  Experience securing Snowflake, Databricks, or Hadoop environments.
• Privacy:
  One Trust, Trust Arc, or similar privacy engineering tools.
• Standards:
  Deep understanding of NIST SP 800-57 (Key Management) and FIPS 140-2/3.

• 6–8+ years of experience in Data Security, Cryptography, or Privacy Engineering.
• Technical Mastery:
  Deep understanding of mathematical concepts behind encryption (AES, RSA, ECC).
• Engineering Background:
  Ability to code or script (Python, Java, or C++) to integrate cryptographic libraries into applications.
• Privacy Focus:
  Proven experience translating legal requirements (GDPR) into technical security controls.
• Problem Solver:
  Ability to balance high-security cryptographic requirements with system performance and scalability.
