DLP Security Engineer
We're looking for a Data Loss Prevention (DLP) Security Engineer to join our internal security team in Tallinn, Estonia. You'll strengthen how Bolt protects its most sensitive internal data — understanding how it's stored, moved, and processed, and building the detections and controls that keep it from ending up where it shouldn't.Location: Tallinn, Estonia
About the role
As a DLP Security Engineer, you will enhance Bolt's internal data security posture by analysing user events and processes to identify gaps and recommend mitigating controls. You'll investigate internal and external misuse cases, mature our threat intelligence and detection engineering efforts, and support the wider security team through on-duty rotation, incident response, and post-incident analysis.
Main tasks and responsibilities:
Investigating data-loss incidents and near misses, and contributing lessons learned in postmortems to prevent recurrence.
Improving our data loss prevention program by understanding how internal data is stored, moved, and processed across Bolt's environment.
Building and tuning detections with the detection engineering team to produce more actionable, less noisy alerts.
Consuming threat intelligence to mature our program and identify Bolt data leaked to the deep, dark, or public web.
Participating in on-duty rotation (from 0900AM to 1700AM on Mondays to Fridays) to triage and resolve security cases affecting our internal assets.
Analysing the business impact of security issues and sharing results with affected teams and stakeholders.
About you:
You have hands-on experience in information security, with a focus on data loss prevention, detection engineering, or incident response.
You understand how data flows through modern cloud and SaaS environments, and how internal or external actors can exfiltrate it.
You have experience with DLP tooling and security logging/monitoring (e.g., SIEM, endpoint, email/CASB, or cloud-native DLP).
You bring scripting or programming skills (e.g., Python) to automate analysis and improve security workflows.
You have a solid grasp of threat actor tactics and forensic indicators of data theft or exfiltration.
You communicate clearly and collaborate with technical and non-technical stakeholders to drive risk mitigation.
At Bolt, using AI daily is a baseline expectation for everyone. If there’s a faster, smarter way to do your work, we expect you to find it. You’re still responsible for the output, so the standard stays high when using AI tools.
Experience is valuable, but what we really look for is drive, intelligence, and integrity — so if you don’t tick every box, apply anyway.
