• Install, configure, and maintain the BigID platform across development (DEV), quality assurance (QA), and production (PROD) environments, ensuring optimal performance and stability
• Implement and enforce data governance policies, overseeing data classification, sensitivity labeling, data remediation (masking/redaction), and ensuring strict adherence to data privacy regulations (GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA) and internal controls
• Guide the overall architecture, design, and execution of data solutions, ensuring scalability, performance, and alignment with enterprise data strategy
• Manage the onboarding of new data sources, validate scan results, troubleshoot technical issues, and optimize data pipelines (using technologies like Spark and Hadoop)
• Work closely with data scientists, data engineers, product managers, and business stakeholders to meet diverse data needs and drive platform adoption across the enterprise
• Support and manage API integrations, develop necessary scripting (Python, Shell), and leverage cloud services (AWS, GCP) for platform expansion and integration with other tools (e.g., Alation)
• Create and document reusable security patterns and guardrails for AWS migration, ensuring teams have a secure blueprint to build against
• Conduct deep-dive design reviews and service validations for applications moving to the cloud. You will be the final gate of approval for security architecture
• Evaluate various migration strategies (Rehost, Replatform, Refactor) to identify risks and implement compensating controls specific to data security
• Lead threat modeling sessions with engineering teams to identify vulnerabilities in the design phase (shifting security left)
• Translate complex security risks into business language. You will meet with application owners and business sponsors to discuss priorities, user experience, and risk appetite
