Senior Data Security Engineer at Skydio · LumiJobs

Responsibilities

Skydio runs its business on Palantir Foundry. Sales, operations, finance, and people teams build the apps they work in every day there. More teams start building on it every month, and more of that work now runs through AI tools that read and write company data on someone's behalf. The same platform holds compensation, customer, cost, and export-controlled data.
Our Business Data Platform team is hiring a senior engineer to own data security and access for the whole company: who can see what, why, and how we prove it. You will turn what teams need into groups, roles, and policies in Foundry, provisioned from Workday and Okta, and work with IT and Security on the identity and network side. Teams will come to you before they build with sensitive data, and your job is to get them to yes, safely and quickly. You will report to the head of Business Data Platform.
How you'll make an impact:
Build the company's access model in Foundry: org-chart team groups provisioned from Workday through Okta, plus application and data-access groups designed around how Finance, Operations, Sales, and People use data. Access updates on its own when people join, move, or leave
Partner with IT and Security on Okta groups, SSO, SCIM provisioning, and egress policies and credentials for data connections: bring clear requirements, agree on who owns what, and verify the result
Keep Foundry in parity with access levels in our source systems and other data platforms, so moving data into Foundry never widens who can see it
Protect sensitive and export-controlled data with Foundry Markings and object and property security policies, masking or redacting what a role should not see
Administer Foundry day to day (users, groups, roles, upgrades, access reviews), and answer who has access to what, and why, with evidence that holds up to audits and customer questions
Work with our autonomy and AI infrastructure engineers on how AI agents and coding tools connect to Foundry (MCP servers, OAuth clients, service accounts), so an agent sees only what the person using it is allowed to see
Lead in our cross-functional Data Council, setting standards with the other business systems owners for how data is shared and protected
What makes you a good fit:
5+ years in data platform, data security, or infrastructure engineering, including owning access control on a data platform such as Foundry, Databricks, or Snowflake
