The team operates in a highly regulated environment where precision, documentation discipline, and cross-regional collaboration are essential.

This is an opportunity to work alongside data security leaders, governance SMEs, and technology teams to enhance the organization’s data risk posture while supporting both U.S. and Japan-based stakeholders in a bilingual capacity.

• Analyze data from data security posture management tools (e.g., Varonis) and perform structured risk reviews
• Conduct outreach to Japanese- and English-speaking stakeholders to validate findings and coordinate remediation
• Track responses, maintain remediation logs, and provide regular progress updates to leadership
• Monitor alerts from Data Loss Prevention (DLP) technologies such as Proofpoint and Microsoft Purview
• Perform initial triage, escalation, and incident validation in accordance with internal procedures
• Assist in the identification of report-level data risk factors and contribute to risk scoring model development
• Leverage data governance tools (e.g., Collibra) and issue management systems to support risk assessments
• Create and refine process documentation, playbooks, and assessment procedures
• Develop and maintain metrics and reporting dashboards to track remediation progress and policy effectiveness
• Partner with technical SMEs to tune DLP policies and reduce false positives
