Job Description

Lead client-ready Microsoft security delivery as a Senior Cybersecurity Engineering Consultant focused on Microsoft Purview, Defender XDR, Entra ID hardening, and Azure security posture assessments for onsite work across the United States.

Responsibilities

Lead Purview engagements including current-state assessment, target design, phased rollout, and configuration of scoped capabilities such as information protection, DLP, audit, and related controls.
Implement and harden Microsoft Defender XDR and Entra ID security, covering Conditional Access and identity-protection patterns aligned to the client’s operating model (not a demo tenant).
Deliver Azure security posture assessments and guided hardening across landing-zone and control-plane hygiene, Defender for Cloud, and a prioritized hardening roadmap.
Where scoped, perform assessment-level Active Directory and hybrid identity work including privilege, delegation, legacy protocol exposure, and a prioritized hardening roadmap.
Create client-ready artifacts including gap analyses, configuration baselines, implementation plans, and operational handover that can be executed.
Run workshops with security, compliance, identity, and IT stakeholders to capture requirements, decisions, risks, and scope changes.
Support pre-sales with effort estimates, technical scope definition, and solution shaping.

Requirements

Senior consulting or professional-services delivery experience, including running workshops and delivering scope and artifacts the client accepted.
Hands-on Microsoft Purview implementation in a production or client tenant, including designing and configuring controls.
Hands-on Microsoft Defender XDR experience, with Defender for Endpoint plus at least one of Identity, Office, or Cloud Apps.
Hands-on Entra ID security experience, including Conditional Access, identity protection / risk patterns, and privileged-access basics as implemented in the tenant.
Ability to assess requirements and recommend a target configuration with practical implementation guidance, including what to phase and what not to enable.
