About this role
You will play a key role in designing, implementing, and evolving data protection controls, integrating them into engineering processes, and collaborating closely with security, fraud, and development teams. The ideal candidate combines strong technical expertise with a deep understanding of data security risks, modern protection tools, and secure development practices.
Challenges that await you:
Data Protection & Security Controls:
Design and implement data classification frameworks and enforce data handling standards across the organization. Deploy and maintain DLP/DDR solutions (endpoint, network, and cloud), ensuring effective monitoring and protection of sensitive data. Manage encryption mechanisms (at rest and in transit) and control access to sensitive data using RBAC/ABAC models.
Drive data discovery and data lineage initiatives to ensure full visibility of data flows and implement controls to detect and prevent data exfiltration.
AppSec & Secure Development Integration:
Embed data protection controls into the SDLC following a shift-left approach. Conduct threat modeling with a focus on data leakage risks. Ensure secure logging practices by preventing sensitive data exposure in logs. Implement and enforce secure storage practices for secrets, tokens, and credentials.
Identify and remediate vulnerabilities related to data access and exposure.
Anti-Fraud & Data Misuse Prevention:
Analyze data access patterns to detect anomalies and potential misuse. Develop detection mechanisms for suspicious operations involving sensitive data. Integrate with anti-fraud systems by contributing signals, triggers, and detection rules.
Participate in investigations related to fraud and insider threats, and design controls to prevent data abuse scenarios such as mass downloads or scraping.
Engineering & Automation:
Automate security controls using policy-as-code and detection-as-code approaches. Support the implementation of data protection tools and services across infrastructure and applications. Ensure secure API design and enforce access control for data exposed via services.
Governance & Compliance:
Support regulatory and internal compliance requirements related to data protection. Define and track key metrics and KPIs (coverage, incidents, MTTD). Prepare for audits and actively participate in them. Maintain clear documentation of data flows, controls, and protection mechanisms.
Collaboration & Enablement:
Work closely with AppSec, InfoSec, SOC, and Fraud teams to ensure a unified security approach. Provide guidance to developers on secure data handling practices. Participate in architecture reviews to ensure data protection requirements are embedded at design stage.
