as well as country-specific privacy frameworks across the UK, EU, Australia, and Canada.

Responsibilities

Monitor delivery progress and keep the backlog organized across live compliance initiatives, including access control, data classification, log scrubbing, audit logging, data retention and deletion, and data access restrictions, closing gaps in ownership or sprint planning before they turn into RAID-log issues
Develop and run test cases confirming that controls operate as intended, such as privileged-access limitations,
