  • Drive SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI-DSS and other compliance certifications, managing internal and external audit processes from planning through remediation

  • Design and deliver compliance training programs to promote a culture of accountability and ethical conduct across the organization

  • Develop and present executive-level risk and compliance dashboards, metrics, and reports to senior leadership, the board of directors, and key stakeholders

  • Oversee third-party risk management program, including vendor security assessments, contract risk review, due diligence, and ongoing monitoring of critical suppliers

  • Lead incident response and investigation efforts related to compliance breaches or policy violations

  • Manage and mentor a team of GRC analysts and specialists

  • Champion a compliance-forward culture by building relationships across the organization and making compliance accessible and practical for all teams

  • Partner with Legal, Sales, InfoSec, and Customer Success to support customer security questionnaires, RFP responses, and due diligence requests

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in information security, business, law, or a related field; advanced degree (MBA, or Master's in Cybersecurity/Risk Management) strongly preferred

  • 8+ years of progressive experience in governance, risk, compliance, information security, or internal audit, with at least 4 years in a management or leadership capacity

  • Deep expertise in regulatory frameworks and standards including NIST, SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST CSF, PCI, SaaS or technology industry experience required

  • Active professional certifications required: CISA, CRISC, CISSP, CIPP, CCEP, or equivalent; multiple certifications preferred

  • Proven track record of building, scaling, and maturing GRC programs in fast-growth technology environments

  • Executive presence with outstanding communication skills; ability to translate complex compliance requirements into business terms for technical and non-technical audiences

  • Hands-on experience implementing and optimizing GRC platforms (e.g., Jira, BitSite, OneTrust, Archer, LogicGate, Vanta, or Drata)

  • Experience managing customer-facing compliance activities, including security questionnaires, audits, and enterprise sales support

  • Strong business acumen with the ability to balance risk mitigation with business enablement
