Cloud Security Engineer

Cloud Security Engineer

The Opportunity:

Everyone is trying to “harness the cloud”, but not everyone knows how to secure it. As a Microsoft Purview Data Protection Engineer, you know how to design, implement, and automate enterprise data‑protection capabilities that safely govern sensitive information across Microsoft 365 IL5 and IL6 Flank Speed environments. What if you could use your advanced Purview, Entra , and DLP engineering skills to improve secure data‑handling and information protection?

As a Microsoft Purview Data Protection Engineer on our team, you’ll design, implement, and optimize enterprise information‑protection, DLP, insider risk, and lifecycle‑governance controls across Microsoft 365. You’ll partner with Navy mission stakeholders, cybersecurity teams, records managers, and cloud engineering teams to translate policy into technical enforcement mechanisms. You’ll recommend tools, automations, and governance approaches based on your deep experience with Microsoft Purview, Entra , and IL5 or IL6 Gov Cloud requirements.

Your expertise will be vital as you build custom Sensitive Information Types (SITs), engineer retention and records‑management policies, create insider‑risk detection controls, design label‑driven encryption, and implement DLP safeguards across endpoints and collaboration platforms. You’ll strengthen your skills in automation, Purview compliance engineering, advanced audit or eDiscovery, and Microsoft Entra Conditional Access and identity governance, while mentoring tomorrow’s cloud‑security experts. Help us transform and secure our nation’s warfighters with cloud technology and advanced Zero Trust capabilities.

Join us. The world can’t wait.
