- Data Protection Privacy: Design and enforce data security policies using Databricks Unity Catalog, including dynamic data masking, row-level security (RLS), and column-level security.

- Storage Security: Advise on and implement best practices for storage isolation (e.g., secure ADLS Gen2 / AWS S3 bucket configurations, IAM roles,

- Advisory Governance: Serve as the central SME for Databricks security. Establish security guardrails, conduct regular platform audits, and mentor data engineering teams on secure coding and deployment practices.

- Databricks Expertise: Deep, hands-on understanding of Databricks architecture, specifically regarding the separation of the Control Plane and Data Plane.

- Unity Catalog: Proven experience deploying and managing Databricks Unity Catalog for unified governance and data access control.

- Security Deep Dive: Mastery of RBAC, fine-grained ACLs, data masking, encryption (in transit and at rest), and credential management (e.g., Databricks Secrets, Azure Key Vault, AWS Secrets Manager).

- Cloud Networking: Strong background in cloud networking and identity management (Azure AD/Entra ID, AWS IAM) and how they integrate with Databricks.

- Scripting/Coding: Proficiency in SQL and Python for managing platform APIs and automating administrative tasks.
