Support large-scale onboarding and migration efforts, including SaaS cutovers, phased policy enforcement, and certification of segmentation controls for high-risk and payment applications. Nice-to-Haves (Certifications / Extras): Security and Architecture: CISSP, CCSP, or comparable security architecture certification Zero Trust–focused training or vendor micro-segmentation certifications Cloud and Identity: Familiarity with Azure and enterprise IAM concepts (SaaS authentication, RBAC, API access) Advanced Platform Integration: Experience integrating segmentation telemetry into SIEM, data lakes, or automation pipelines Exposure to policy certification, audit traceability, or regulatory reporting.
