- Striving for Excellence: Execute at a high level by demonstrating our “Best in KLAS” Ensemble Difference Principles and consistently delivering outstanding results.
THE OPPORTUNITY:
The Solution Engineer - Data Governance is responsible for the day-to-day operation, configuration, and integration of the data governance and data security platforms owned by the Data Governance department. These include Microsoft Purview (Information Protection, Data Loss Prevention, Insider Risk Management, Data Map, and Unified Catalog), network DLP, user and entity behavior analytics, data security posture management, and the governance capabilities of Databricks Unity Catalog.
This role keeps these tools connected, healthy, and producing reliable results. It onboards new data sources and tools securely and with least privilege, and pulls data from these tools to produce the metrics, reports, and audit evidence that leadership and auditors rely on. Scripting is used to close gaps where native tool capability falls short; it supports the role but is not the main focus. The position works closely with the Data Governance analysts, Cybersecurity Engineering, IT Operations, Data Engineering, and vendors.
Essential Job Functions
- Administer and configure data governance and data security tools to approved standards, including sensitivity labels, DLP and insider risk policies, classification scans, and catalog settings, following change management.
- Onboard data sources to scanning and classification tools, including registering sources, configuring service principals, managed identities, integration runtimes, private connectivity, and secrets, and setting scan scope, schedules, and exclusions.
- Monitor tool health, including scan completion, connector status, policy deployment, and alert flow; troubleshoot and resolve failures, and manage vendor support cases through to resolution.
- Lead the technical review of new tool integrations and vendor deployments. Before change approval, document every account, permission, network change, and data flow the tool requires and validate least privilege. After deployment, verify the environment matches what was approved.
- Integrate governance and security tools with each other and with surrounding platforms (Entra ID, Azure, Databricks, Microsoft 365, SIEM, ITSM), using native connectors first and APIs where needed.
- Support tool evaluations and proofs of concept by turning use cases into test plans and success criteria, standing up test configurations, and documenting results.
- Extract data from tool consoles, audit logs, and APIs to produce recurring metrics such as classification coverage, DLP activity, insider risk alert volume and triage time, and catalog coverage; automate recurring reports and Power BI dashboards.
- Produce configuration and operating evidence for internal audit, regulatory, and client requests.
- Write and maintain scripts (PowerShell, Python, SQL, KQL) to close gaps in native tool functionality and automate repetitive administration.
- Maintain as-built documentation, configuration baselines, SOPs, and runbooks for each tool.
- Work with DLP, insider risk, and stewardship analysts to implement the policy and tuning changes they define.
- Track vendor product changes and roadmaps and assess their impact on current configurations.
EMPLOYMENT QUALIFICATIONS
- 3+ years administering or engineering enterprise security, compliance, or data platforms, preferably in Microsoft cloud environments.
- Experience in a healthcare or Revenue Cycle Management setting is a plus.
- Bachelors Degree or Equivalent Experience
- Preferred certification in: Microsoft Certified: Information Security Administrator Associate (SC-401), Microsoft Certified: Azure Security Engineer Associate (AZ-500), or Microsoft Certified: Azure Administrator Associate (AZ-104).
- Hands-on administration of Microsoft Purview (DLP, Information Protection, Insider Risk Management, Data Map, or Unified Catalog).
- Working knowledge of Azure identity and infrastructure: Entra ID app registrations and service principals, RBAC, managed identities, Key Vault, private endpoints, and Azure Policy.
- Familiarity with the Databricks Unity Catalog permissions model.
- Scripting in PowerShell (including Security & Compliance PowerShell and Microsoft Graph) and Python; working proficiency in SQL and KQL.
- Experience with Power BI or similar reporting tools.
- Experience working within formal change management (e.g., ServiceNow CAB).
- Familiarity with DSPM, DLP, and UEBA platforms; exposure to dedicated catalog platforms is a plus.
- Understanding of compliance requirements with regulations such as HIPAA, and strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management abilities; familiarity with healthcare data such as EHR, ICD/CPT, and SNOMED/LOINC is a plus.
- Must be inquisitive and demonstrate openness to innovation including AI to explore better processes and ways to alleviate friction and improve patient and client experiences.
- This is a remote position; however, candidates must be willing and able to travel to and work onsite at client, temporary, or corporate office locations as business needs require.
- This position pays between $101,600 - 152,400 based on experience.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding OPT Sponsorship as a Solution Engineer
Lead with your technical credentials
Solution Engineers are evaluated on both coding ability and communication skills. Highlight your degree field prominently on your resume, it signals STEM OPT eligibility and reassures hiring managers that sponsorship timelines work in their favor.
Target SaaS and enterprise software companies
Companies selling complex software to business clients hire Solution Engineers at scale and have established visa sponsorship processes. These employers already understand OPT timelines and are far more likely to support H-1B visa sponsorship after your authorization period ends.
Demonstrate product fluency before the interview
Research the company's core product deeply before any interview. Solution Engineers are expected to run live demos from day one. Showing you already understand the product's technical architecture signals low onboarding risk, which reduces hesitation around OPT hiring.
Prepare a clear OPT timeline summary
Know your exact OPT start date, STEM extension eligibility date, and H-1B cap season deadlines. Presenting this proactively in conversations with recruiters removes uncertainty and positions you as organized and easy to work with on authorization logistics.
Build a portfolio of technical presentations
Record yourself delivering a mock product demo or technical walkthrough. Solution Engineer hiring often includes a demo round, and having evidence of your presentation skills before that stage helps you stand out, especially when competing against candidates without OPT considerations.
Apply to companies with dedicated immigration support
Larger technology firms typically have in-house immigration counsel or retained law firms that handle OPT-to-H-1B transitions routinely. Prioritize these employers early in your search to maximize your chances of a smooth sponsorship path after your OPT period ends.
Solution Engineer OPT: Frequently Asked Questions
Do Solution Engineer jobs qualify for the STEM OPT extension?
Most Solution Engineer roles qualify for the 24-month STEM OPT extension because the position typically falls under CIP codes tied to computer science, information systems, or engineering. Your degree field must match an approved STEM CIP code, and your employer must be enrolled in E-Verify. Confirm your specific degree code with your DSO before applying for the extension.
How do I find Solution Engineer jobs that sponsor OPT students?
Migrate Mate filters job listings specifically for employers willing to sponsor F-1 OPT and visa candidates, so you're not wasting time applying to postings that screen out international students. Solution Engineer roles from SaaS companies and enterprise software firms appear regularly. Browsing by role on Migrate Mate lets you focus on employers already familiar with OPT work authorization.
Can I work as a Solution Engineer on OPT if my degree is in a non-engineering field?
It depends on your specific degree and the employer's job description. If your degree is in business, economics, or a non-STEM field, you can still work on standard 12-month OPT, but you won't qualify for the STEM extension. Some employers also require that your degree aligns with the technical nature of the role, so a mismatch can create complications during onboarding or visa sponsorship discussions.
What happens to my Solution Engineer job if my OPT expires before H-1B approval?
If your employer files an H-1B petition by April 1 and USCIS receives it before your OPT expires, your work authorization automatically extends by up to 240 days while the petition is pending. You can continue working as a Solution Engineer during this cap-gap period. Your employer's HR or immigration counsel should initiate the H-1B process well before the cap season deadline to avoid any gap in authorization.
Is the Solution Engineer role classified as a specialty occupation for H-1B purposes?
Solution Engineer positions at most technology companies are structured around bachelor's-level requirements in computer science, engineering, or a related technical field, which generally satisfies the specialty occupation standard for H-1B petitions. However, USCIS evaluates each petition individually. Roles where the technical requirement is ambiguous or where the employer accepts any degree field can face scrutiny, so the job description's degree requirement language matters significantly.
