Perform threat mapping and gap analysis across structured, unstructured, cloud, and on-premises data.

Facilitate client workshops and stakeholder discussions to translate requirements into scalable, secure Microsoft-based solutions.

Own solution design decisions, configuration, and technical documentation.

Provide technical mentorship to Analysts and Senior Analysts; lead workstreams or small teams.

Contribute to estimations, delivery planning, and risk management.

Support solutioning efforts, proposals, and internal capability development.

Build awareness and controls for emerging AI and agentic AI security considerations (e.g., Security Copilot).

What you'll bring

Advanced capability in Microsoft Purview (Information Protection, DLP, Records Management) and Microsoft 365 security/compliance architecture.

Experience with data classification frameworks, control design, and regulatory alignment (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA, PCI-DSS).

PowerShell scripting for automation and reporting.

Familiarity with Copilot/AI data risk considerations and emerging security controls.

Strong client-facing presence and communication; able to translate technical concepts for non-technical stakeholders.

Ownership mindset and accountability for delivery outcomes; effective prioritization and problem-solving under pressure.

Coaching and mentoring capabilities.
