Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance (BHSI) has an exciting opportunity for a new team member to join their Boston-based Technology Governance Risk Audit & Compliance (GRAC) team as a Technology Senior Risk Analyst. In this newly created role, the Technology Senior Risk Analyst will support and mature the Technology Risk Management pillar, ensuring technology risks are proactively identified, assessed, communicated, and monitored across the enterprise.

  • Define and socialize KRIs/KPIs, risk dashboards, trends, and heat maps; deliver clear status to Technology leadership, and key stakeholders.
  • Partner with Vendor Risk Management Team to evaluate critical vendors (including AI‑enabled services), review SOC reports/certifications, assess control gaps, and track remediation/compensating controls through closure.
  • Track risk issues, action plans, and target dates; validate remediation and retest where needed; participate in lessons‑learned and scenario exercises.
  • Provide support to our offices from both a U.S. and global perspective (i.e., Asia, Middle East, UK, Europe, Australasia, etc.) regarding the fulfillment of Technology risk related requests and obligations.
  • Assess AI/automation use cases for explainability, privacy, security, and bias risk; ensure appropriate documentation, monitoring, and governance are in place.
  • Educate teams on risk expectations, evidence quality, and the “why” behind controls; help embed risk thinking into delivery and operations.
  • Attend/participate in e-learning training sessions to increase background knowledge of the ever-evolving Technology regulatory landscape.

Qualifications, Skills and Experience:

  • 10+ years of experience in Technology risk, Technology audit/compliance, or cyber GRC.
  • Experience running RCSAs, defining KRIs/KPIs, and presenting risk insights to senior stakeholders.
  • Strong documentation skills, including writing risk narratives, control designs, control matrices, testing procedures, and remediation plans.
  • Effective communication and partnership skills; able to challenge constructively and receive challenge professionally.
  • Experience conducting vendor risk reviews, including SOC 2 analysis, control gap identification, and remediation follow‑up.
  • Solid background knowledge of major risk and control frameworks (Technology, Cyber, Enterprise), such as NIST CSF, COSO ERM, COBIT, etc.
  • Working knowledge of U.S. Technology regulations (e.g., SOX, CCPA/CPRA, PCI, NY‑DFS) is recommended.
  • Familiarity with global regulatory frameworks (e.g., GDPR, CBI, DORA, MAS, APRA, BaFin) is preferred but not required.
  • Ability to work in a team-based environment and communicate effectively and efficiently with others domestically and globally.
  • Experience with GRC tools such as Workiva, AuditBoard, ServiceNow, Drata, Vanta, or similar platforms is a plus.
  • AI experience is a plus, including an understanding of AI risks, responsible AI concepts, or emerging AI regulatory requirements.
  • Professional certifications such as CRISC, CISA, CISM, CISSP, or ISO/IEC 27001 Lead Implementer/Lead Auditor (or equivalent) are a plus.

  • A competitive package and exciting growth opportunities for career-oriented teammates.
  • A dynamic, action oriented, and thoughtful environment centered on always doing the right thing for our customers, teammates and our other stakeholders.
  • A purposely non-bureaucratic organization that embraces simplicity over complexity and emphasizes individual excellence in a team framework.
  • Benefits that support your life and well-being, which include:
    • Comprehensive Health, Dental and Vision benefits.
    • Disability Insurance (both short-term and long-term).
    • Life Insurance (for you and your family).
