Job Description Summary We are seeking an experienced Senior Data Security Engineer to own and evolve Intapp's data protection programme across our global SaaS and Corporate environments. This is a senior individual-contributor role embedded within our Global Cybersecurity Operations team, with a primary focus on the Microsoft Purview platform and the broader suite of data and information protection controls that safeguard Intapp's most sensitive data assets. This role sits at the intersection of security engineering, compliance, and data governance. In addition to the primary data protection mandate, the role provides critical backfill capability across both Corporate IT Security (endpoint and email security) and Cloud Security (vulnerability and posture management) functions within the SecOps team. About Intapp: Intapp, based in Silicon Valley, is a leader in Vertical AI SaaS company, collaborating with over 2,550 professional and financial services firms globally. With 20+ years of industry expertise, Intapp's "Intelligence Applied" approach is transforming how businesses operate and leverages a strategic partner with Microsoft in delivering industry cloud solutions. The company culture promotes accountability, responsibility, and growth in a diverse, inclusive, and collaborative environment. Since going public in 2021, Intapp has expanded to over 1,600 employees globally with development centers in Palo Alto, Charlotte, Belfast, Berlin, and Lisbon. Job Description This role suits a security professional who combines deep Microsoft Purview technical expertise with a rigorous, policy-minded approach to data governance. You think in data flows, classification taxonomies, and risk — translating policy intent into enforced technical controls at scale. You are comfortable working autonomously, owning complex cross-functional workstreams, and communicating outcomes clearly to security leadership and business stakeholders. Key Responsibilities: Own and administer the Microsoft Purview platform (Compliance, Information Protection, Data Lifecycle, Audit, eDiscovery). Configure and manage sensitivity labels, auto-labelling, and information protection policies. Manage retention policies, retention labels, and data lifecycle controls. Design, implement, and optimise Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policies across Microsoft 365, Teams, Endpoint, and Azure. Investigate DLP incidents, tune policies, and reduce false positives. Build and maintain custom sensitive information types, trainable classifiers, and keyword dictionaries. Maintain enterprise data classification and information governance policies. Produce governance and compliance reporting on data protection and DLP effectiveness. Integrate Microsoft Purview with Microsoft Sentinel, including KQL queries, analytics, and dashboards. Support Insider Risk Management, investigations, and incident response for data exposure events. Provide operational support for Microsoft Defender (Endpoint, Office 365, Vulnerability Management, and Defender for Cloud). Support cloud security posture management and remediation aligned with security frameworks (CIS, NIST, ISO 27001). Required experience & skills: 6+ years in information security, with 3–5 years focused on data protection or information governance centred on Microsoft Purview and DLP. Deep, hands-on expertise with Microsoft Purview — Information Protection, DLP, Data Lifecycle Management, Audit, eDiscovery, and the Compliance portal. Solid knowledge of GDPR, CCPA, ISO 27001 Annex A, NIST SP 800-53, and CIS Controls. Proficiency with PowerShell and Microsoft Graph API for Purview and M365 administration and automation. Familiarity with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, Defender for Office 365, Defender Vulnerability Management, and Defender for Cloud. Certifications: SC-400 or AZ-500 (highly regarded); SC-200, SC-300, CISM, or CISSP beneficial. Experience integrating Purview with Microsoft Sentinel, including KQL development and analytics rules.

We support each other in a positive, open atmosphere that fosters creativity, approachability, and teamwork.

That number is real. WorkMundi's database shows 144,883 open engineer roles across the world. India has the most with 31,687 jobs, followed by the United States with 30,084. If you just finished reading one job ad and felt paralyzed by choice, you're not alone—but this scale is actually an advantage. It means you can afford to be selective.
Start by geography and language. The majority of engineer ads—117,837 of them—have the job posting text written in English. Use that as one filter, but remember: the ad text language tells you nothing about whether the role actually requires you to speak English day-to-day. Read the job description carefully. Then check which countries have the volume you're targeting. Singapore, Poland, and Australia round out the top five after India and the US.
Next, learn who's hiring. Accenture has posted 2,801 engineer roles. andurilindustries, speechify, and jobgether are also actively recruiting. If you're applying to one of these names, research their hiring patterns and interview style before you apply. That homework pays off.
When you interview, expect the question every engineer hears: 'Tell me about a time you had to debug a problem that wasn't in your job description.' Have a specific story ready—not a general one. Name the tools, the deadline pressure, and what you learned. Hiring managers listen for whether you see problem-solving as part of the role itself, not a favour.
