Integrate the Trellix DLP platform with SIEM, SOAR, CASB, CMDB, and identity security tools for end-to-end visibility and automated response. Analyze DLP telemetry, alerts, and incidents to identify data exfiltration patterns, risk signals, and false positives. Partner with legal, compliance, data governance, and HR to define rulesets, thresholds, and exception workflows. Develop engineering playbooks, standard operating procedures, and runbooks for policy lifecycle management. Manage endpoint agent health, upgrades, change control, and enterprise-wide platform stability. Conduct root-cause analysis for user-impact, policy misfires, broken workflows, and endpoint inventory issues. Provide guidance to application and business teams on data classification, tagging, and secure data-handling practices. Align DLP implementations with Zero Trust, privacy, and enterprise data protection strategies.

• Ability to interpret data movement patterns and policy outcomes
• Active TS/SCI clearance; willingness to take a polygraph exam
• HS diploma or GED and 7+ years of experience with supporting IT projects and activities, Associate’s degree and 5+ years of experience supporting IT projects and activities, Bachelor’s degree and 3+ years of experience supporting IT projects and activities, or Master’s degree and 1+ years of experience supporting IT projects and activities
