This role is for a hands-on leader who can move from discovery to design to deployment, embedding closely with clients to architect and implement high-impact solutions while leading engineering teams and shaping deals. Your internal role matrix positions this level as the next step beyond field/staff engineering: not just delivery, but architecting solutions at the intersection of platforms and AI tools (agents and models). That aligns closely with external FDE market patterns focused on customer-embedded technical ownership and end-to-end production deployment.\nKey responsibilities\nLead the discovery, architecture, and deployment of AI-enabled data protection solutions for strategic clients, translating business, privacy, and cybersecurity requirements into scalable technical designs.\nServe as a forward deployed technical leader, embedding with client stakeholders to break down ambiguous problem statements, make architecture decisions, and drive measurable outcomes in production. External FDE role definitions from EY, Databricks, Palantir, and Deloitte all emphasize this embedded technical ownership model.\nArchitect integrations across data protection platforms, AI models, copilots, RAG pipelines, enterprise data estates, and downstream security/policy controls.\nLead engineering teams through build, integration, testing, troubleshooting, go-live, and post-deployment hardening while maintaining delivery quality, client confidence, and practical execution pace.\nShape pursuit solutions through demonstrations, solution architecture, proofs of concept, effort estimates, and technical proposals. This is explicitly called out in external FDE manager patterns.\nBuild reusable methods, accelerators, reference architectures, and runbooks that strengthen the firm’s AI data protection offerings and improve repeatability across sectors and accounts.\nManage client expectations, delivery scope, solution quality, risks, and technical escalations while coaching teams and enabling long-term client capability through documentation and knowledge transfer.\nRequired qualifications\n8-12 years of experience across data protection, cybersecurity engineering, security architecture, privacy engineering, cloud security, or related fields.\nStrong depth in data protection, data discovery/classification, PKI & KMS, and information rights management.\nStrong working knowledge of ML, deep learning, NLP, RAG, AI-assisted prioritization, and model risk scoring, with experience applying these to enterprise problem-solving.\nDemonstrated experience designing and deploying enterprise-grade solutions across cloud and hybrid environments, ideally on Azure, AWS, or GCP. Comparable FDE manager roles consistently require cloud-native delivery, APIs, and production systems ownership.\nHands-on experience with AI/data protection tooling such as Microsoft Copilot, GitHub Copilot, Claude Enterprise, Gemini Enterprise, Purview, DSPM platforms, Python, and related enterprise engineering tools.\nStrong client-facing communication and the ability to operate as a trusted technical advisor to senior stakeholders.\nPreferred qualifications\nExperience in a professional services, solutions engineering, field engineering, or forward deployed model.\nFamiliarity with regulated sectors such as financial services, healthcare, public sector, or large multinational enterprises. External senior digital trust/privacy FDE roles explicitly value regulated-industry depth.\nExperience with pricing inputs, solution estimation, and technical deal shaping.\nWhy join us\nJoin a globally connected cybersecurity practice helping clients protect sensitive data in an AI-driven world. You will work at the intersection of data protection, privacy, cloud, and frontier AI - helping shape practical, scalable solutions that reduce risk, enable trust, and support secure business transformation. This is consistent with the internal positioning of the data protection practice as technology-enabled, consulting-led, and globally delivered.\nTypical work environment\nGlobal, cross-functional teams\nMix of advisory, architecture, engineering, and delivery\nExposure to strategic client programs and market-shaping offerings\nOpportunity to build reusable assets, accelerators, and modernization patterns consistent with a global delivery model\nEY | Building a better working world\nEY exists to build a better working world, helping to create long-term value for clients, people and society and build trust in the capital markets.\nEnabled by data and technology, diverse EY teams in over 150 countries provide trust through assurance and help clients grow, transform and operate.\nWorking across assurance, consulting, law, strategy, tax and transactions, EY teams ask better questions to find new answers for the complex issues facing our world today.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5498,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":8,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Artificial Intelligence","Business Travel","Travel Technology","Information Security"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-25T11:30:46Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":41,"band":"fade","label":"Fading","p_open":1,"p_active":0.749,"p_room":0.55,"age_days":26,"expected_fill_days":22,"reasons":["conf:0","velocity","win:tail","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-10-19T05:45:15Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/ey-gds-cyber-dpp-manager-ai-data-protection-engineering","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/ey-gds-cyber-dpp-manager-ai-data-protection-engineering.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-19T06:13:42Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":3851,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-20T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":2859},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=2859"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fey-gds-cyber-dpp-manager-ai-data-protection-engineering"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fey-gds-cyber-dpp-manager-ai-data-protection-engineering"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fey-gds-cyber-dpp-manager-ai-data-protection-engineering"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/ey-gds-cyber-dpp-manager-ai-data-protection-engineering\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fey-gds-cyber-dpp-manager-ai-data-protection-engineering"}]}
