It Project Manager Jobs in Decorah, IA (NOW HIRING)

Job Summary:

We are seeking a Manager, Information Security (GRC) to own and mature Neumo's Governance, Risk, and Compliance program. This role is critical to maintaining our SOC 1, SOC 2, and PCI certifications and to raising our overall information security maturity. You will build the foundation for data governance, risk acceptance and exceptions processes, and a recurring cadence of monthly, quarterly, and annual risk mitigation. This is a hands-on leadership role: you will manage 1–2 direct reports while personally driving audits, risk assessments, and control automation, and participate in incident management alongside the broader security team.

You will be the connective tissue between security engineering, legal, engineering, and executive leadership: translating regulatory and contractual requirements into practical controls, and translating control performance into risk language leadership can act on.
 
This role directly protects Neumo's ability to do business: Our certifications are foundational to customer trust and revenue. You will have the mandate to modernize how we manage risk and compliance, including building automation and AI-driven workflows that scale the program without scaling headcount linearly.

Duties and Responsibilities:

Leadership & Program Ownership

• Own and execute Neumo's GRC strategy and roadmap, in partnership with the CISO.
• Manage, mentor, and grow 1–2 direct reports supporting compliance, risk, and audit activities.
• Set the foundation for data governance: data classification, ownership, retention, and handling standards.
• Build and maintain the risk register; lead monthly, quarterly, and annual risk mitigation cycles.
• Own the risk acceptance and policy exception process, including documentation, approval workflows, and periodic review.
• Report on compliance posture, audit status, and risk trends to executive stakeholders and the board as needed.

Compliance & Audit Management

• Own end-to-end readiness and execution for SOC 1, SOC 2, and PCI DSS audits, including evidence collection, auditor coordination, and remediation tracking.
• Maintain and continuously improve the internal control framework mapped to SOC 1/2, PCI, and other applicable frameworks (e.g., ISO 27001, NIST CSF).
• Track control ownership, testing cadence, and control health across the organization using the GRC platform and Jira.
• Partner with engineering and IT teams to close control gaps and drive remediation of audit findings within SLA.

Risk, Automation & Cross-Functional Work

• Design and implement control automation to reduce manual evidence collection and continuous control monitoring (CCM).
• Leverage AI/LLM tooling to accelerate evidence review, policy drafting, control testing, and risk analysis, with appropriate human oversight.
• Participate in incident management as the GRC/risk representative: assessing regulatory and contractual impact and ensuring proper documentation.
• Manage third-party/vendor risk assessments and questionnaires (customer security questionnaires, vendor due diligence).
• Partner with Legal and Privacy on data protection, regulatory, and contractual compliance requirements.

 Education and Experience:

• 6+ years of experience in GRC, information security compliance, or IT audit, including experience managing or mentoring others.
• Direct experience owning SOC 1, SOC 2, and PCI DSS compliance programs end-to-end, including audit management.
• Hands-on experience with GRC platforms (e.g., Vanta, Drata, ServiceNow GRC, OneTrust, Archer, or similar).
• Experience building risk management programs: risk registers, risk acceptance/exception processes, and recurring risk mitigation cadences.
• Foundational experience with data governance concepts (classification, ownership, retention).
• Relevant certifications (e.g., CISA, CRISC, CISSP, CISM) are a plus but not required.

 Knowledge, Skills and Abilities:

• Strong working knowledge of Jira for control tracking, remediation workflows, and cross-team coordination.
• Demonstrated ability to build or deploy control automation and continuous control monitoring.
• Comfort leveraging AI tools to scale GRC operations (evidence review, policy generation, risk analysis).
• Ability to participate effectively in incident management, translating technical incidents into risk and compliance impact.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills; able to translate technical and regulatory detail for executive audiences.
