We are looking for a Senior Professional Services Consultant – Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) to join our Professional Services team. This is a Hybrid (work location: Mohali ) role, reporting to the Manager , Professional Services in the Professional Services (Solution Consulting) department. Sitting at the intersection of strategic enterprise consulting and forward-deployed engineering, you will serve as the primary technical authority and end-to-end delivery owner for our enterprise DSPM customers across financial services, public sector, retail, SaaS, and beyond. As organizations navigate AI-accelerated threats, cloud-first transformation, and sprawling multi-cloud data estates, you will turn complexity into clarity. You will architect, deploy, and optimize DSPM solutions alongside the broader Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange platform—driving expanded cloud-estate visibility, accurate sensitive-data inventory, reduced identity and credential exposure, and AI governance.
