• Lead design and implementation of secure access frameworks in collaboration with Security, IT Network Engineering, and DevOps
• Build and maintain automations that streamline policy assignments, traffic steering, and onboarding/offboarding across the Zscaler platform
• Integrate Zscaler with identity (Okta), MDM (Jamf/Kandji), and SaaS infrastructure to support dynamic and context-aware access controls
• Analyze traffic flows, logs, and security alerts to continuously optimize Zscaler performance, policy enforcement, and user experience
• Act as a point of escalation and subject matter expert for complex troubleshooting, incidents, and post-mortems related to secure access and remote connectivity
• Contribute to security audits, risk assessments, and policy documentation that reflect Zscaler's role in our broader compliance program
• Mentor the wider Information Technology team and provide guidance on Zscaler usage, secure access best practices, and automation techniques
• Stay ahead of industry trends and proactively introduce features, configurations, and strategies to improve security posture and operational agility

• Strong knowledge of networking concepts, including DNS, IPsec/GRE tunnels, SSL inspection, authentication protocols (SAML/OAuth), and traffic forwarding
• Adept in scripting and automation with Python, Bash, or PowerShell—especially using APIs to manage Zscaler and adjacent systems
• Comfortable working across Security, Infrastructure, and Compliance teams to align technical controls with enterprise risk frameworks
• Experienced in incident response, root cause analysis, and proactive system monitoring in security-sensitive environments
