An Open Source Compliance Manager is a professional responsible for ensuring that a company’s use of open source software complies with relevant licenses and regulations. They develop and implement policies, review software code, educate staff, and manage compliance audits to mitigate legal and security risks. This role often involves collaborating with legal, engineering, and procurement teams to monitor and document open source usage throughout the organization.

They often provide training on license obligations, maintain a list of approved libraries, and conduct regular audits or code scans to identify potential compliance issues. Effective collaboration involves frequent communication, offering guidance on best practices, and ensuring developers understand the importance of proper documentation and attribution. This partnership helps organizations mitigate legal risks while fostering a culture of responsible open source usage.

Job description

This position is also available for employment in these areas:
Hybrid - Texas (Westlake), Remote - USA
Job Description:
Pluralsight is the only learning platform dedicated to accelerating the technology skills and capabilities of today's tech workforce. As we continue to expand globally and deliver impact that matters, we need a Global Compliance & Licensing Counsel who will be the architect of our corporate integrity program.
You'll design and scale a world-class compliance function from the ground up-building our global compliance framework, managing our whistleblower program, and serving as the primary guardian of our ethical culture. You'll also own our licensing strategy, from managing open-source compliance to negotiating author/developer and software licensing agreements that protect our IP and author partnerships. In this role, you'll ensure that as Pluralsight scales, we remain protected from regulatory, legal, and reputational risk while fostering a culture of trust across FCPA/Anti-Corruption, OFAC/Sanctions, Intellectual Property, and internal governance.
This is your opportunity to shape how a mission-driven tech company approaches ethics, compliance, and licensing-and to make a real impact on our global operations.
What You'll Do
  • Design and build our compliance infrastructure from the ground up: Develop a comprehensive Global Compliance Framework, corporate Code of Conduct, and all supporting policies; conduct baseline and recurring risk assessments to identify vulnerabilities in new market entries and high-risk jurisdictions.
  • Establish and lead our whistleblower program: Create and manage a secure, multilingual Global Whistleblower Hotline, lead investigations into reported complaints, and maintain rigorous case management while reporting findings directly to executive leadership.
  • Operationalize anti-corruption and trade compliance: Develop and enforce Anti-Bribery/Anti-Corruption (ABAC) policies aligned with FCPA and UK Bribery Act requirements; implement automated sanctions screening to ensure zero engagement with OFAC-sanctioned entities.
  • Manage export controls and trade compliance: Classify software products with Export Control Classification Numbers (ECCN), implement automated customer/vendor screening against OFAC's SDN list, and manage export licenses and end-user certifications for restricted technologies.
  • Build vendor risk management programs: Create standardized vendor compliance questionnaires and vetting processes; audit key vendors for compliance with company standards on IP protection and anti-corruption.
  • Review and negotiate licensing agreements: Manage open-source software (OSS) compliance to ensure developers follow third-party license obligations; review and negotiate author/developer agreements, software licensing agreements, and other commercial documents to ensure compliance with company IP policies and applicable law.

What You'll Bring
  • Deep compliance expertise in a tech environment: Minimum 3+ years of compliance experience with a proven track record of building programs in tech or software-you understand both regulatory requirements and how they apply to our industry.
  • Contract negotiation and licensing expertise: You're experienced reviewing and negotiating software licensing agreements, developer/author agreements, and commercial contracts; you understand open-source compliance and can ensure third-party license obligations are met.
  • Expert-level knowledge of FCPA, OFAC, and IP law: You have hands-on experience interpreting and operationalizing complex trade and IP laws as they pertain to software distribution and global operations.
  • Strong investigative and disclosure skills: You've successfully managed internal investigations into potential sanctions violations or bribery allegations, handled sensitive whistleblower disclosures with absolute confidentiality, and drafted voluntary disclosures to government agencies when needed.
  • Vendor risk management proficiency: You're experienced with vendor risk management tools, compliance screening software (Descartes Visual Compliance, World-Check, or similar), and automating due diligence workflows.
  • Collaborative leadership mindset: You can work effectively across HR, finance, engineering, and executive leadership to embed compliance and licensing guardrails into our culture-enabling growth while managing risk.

Requirements
  • Juris Doctor (JD) degree required
  • Active bar membership required (any US state)
  • Minimum 3 years of compliance experience, with demonstrated expertise in FCPA, OFAC, and IP law as it applies to software or technology
  • Experience building compliance programs in a tech or software environment
  • Proven ability to manage internal investigations and handle sensitive whistleblower disclosures
  • Experience reviewing and negotiating software licensing agreements, developer/author agreements, and commercial contracts to ensure compliance with IP policies and applicable law
  • Working knowledge of export controls and trade compliance is strongly preferred
  • This is a remote role; however, applicants located within 45 miles of our Westlake/Dallas, TX office should expect to work on-site Tuesday through Thursday, with remote flexibility on Mondays and Fridays. This approach enables more effective collaboration, quicker decision-making, and a stronger culture, while still providing flexibility. Candidates in the DFW metroplex able to work in our Westlake, Texas office will be given preference.

Why You'll Love Working Here
  • We work in a blended environment that supports collaboration, flexibility, and connection across teams
  • We are mission-driven, shaping the future of tech upskilling and delivering impact that matters
  • We foster a culture of inclusion and belonging, where everyone can contribute and thrive
  • We are always learning, creating an environment where you can take on new challenges, expand your skills, and grow with purpose
  • Benefits include competitive compensation, bonus eligibility, comprehensive medical coverage, unlimited PTO, wellness reimbursement, professional development funds, and more
