    • Create, tune, and maintain DLP profiles and policies for sensitive data categories including PII, PHI, PCI, intellectual property, and other regulated or confidential data types

    • Conduct structured DLP policy testing using representative data samples to validate detection accuracy and minimize false positives

    • Establish a formal policy review and tuning cadence in partnership with Legal, Compliance, and Data Governance teams

    • Investigate and respond to DLP policy alerts, escalating incidents per established procedures

  • Stakeholder Collaboration & Documentation

    • Serve as the subject matter expert for Netskope NG SWG, NPA, and DLP across security, IT, and business teams

    • Produce and maintain architecture diagrams, runbooks, policy documentation, and operational procedures

    • Provide guidance and knowledge transfer to junior engineers and security operations staff

    • Engage with Netskope TAM and support resources to stay current on platform capabilities and roadmap
