Utilizing a deep knowledge of National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) controls, you will be tasked with implementing technical solutions that not only comply with these controls but also facilitate coordination and consensus among our clients.

    This role demands specialized experience in data security, particularly within a data mesh architecture, requiring the capability to delve into technical details as well as the unique ability to distill complex topics for executive communication.

    Your key responsibilities

  • Develop and enforce comprehensive privacy policies and procedures in compliance with global data protection regulations (, GDPR, CCPA) to safeguard sensitive information within the data mesh infrastructure.
  • Create dynamic access control policies that adapt to the evolving needs of a distributed data environment, leveraging advanced technologies like AI for real-time decision-making.
  • Lead the integration of security practices into the data lifecycle, from ingestion through to analytics and archiving, ensuring data integrity and confidentiality across all phases.
  • Conduct regular security assessments and audits to identify vulnerabilities within the data mesh ecosystem, and develop mitigation strategies to address identified risks.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to foster a culture of security awareness, ensuring that data security and privacy principles are embedded in all data operations.
  • Stay abreast of the latest cybersecurity trends, threats, and technologies to continually enhance the security posture of the data mesh ecosystem.
  • Author and manage critical security artifacts, including SOPs, RMF deliverables, security plans, and contingency plans, ensuring they are adapted to the data mesh architecture.
  • Skills and attributes for success

  • An in-depth knowledge of data mesh architecture and its core principles is highly desirable although not strictly required.
  • Proven expertise in designing and managing security solutions within complex, distributed data environments.
  • Thorough understanding of encryption protocols for data at rest and in transit, ensuring secure data communication and storage.
  • Demonstrated ability to enhance security through robust audit and alerting mechanisms, supported by comprehensive server-side security policies.
  • Proficiency in implementing and maintaining security architectures compliant with Zero Trust principles.
  • Comprehensive knowledge of Federal Government security controls, assessment procedures in FISMA, and NIST SP 800-53, with a focus on applying these within a distributed data infrastructure.
  • Demonstrable experience with cloud service providers like Azure, AWS, etc., and an understanding of their security features.
  • Strong knowledge in implementing security best practices specifically for distributed architectures, ensuring secure, distributed data management and access.
  • Proficiency in conducting risk assessments and developing mitigation plans, with a focus on identifying potential threats and vulnerabilities within a distributed data ecosystem.
  • Demonstrated ability to integrate robust security measures into a distributed data infrastructure, safeguarding against unauthorized access.
  • Experience with data privacy, classification, and access tools such as Immuta, Azure IAM, Azure data catalog, or Gigya.
  • To qualify for the role, you must have

  • Eligibility to obtain and maintain a Secret Clearance.
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Information Security, or a related field.
  • 4+ years of experience in a security engineering role, with a focus on data security, privacy, and access management.

  • Professional certifications, such as CISSP (Certified Information Systems Security Professional), CISM (Certified Information Security Manager), CCSP (Certified Cloud Security Professional) or equivalent certifications strongly preferred.
  • Familiarity with Federal Information Processing Standards and DoD Risk Management Framework
