Nexxa is building the best AI systems for heavy industries — enabling machines, systems, and operations to think, decide, and act autonomously across manufacturing, large-scale infrastructure, logistics, and legacy environments.
Our mission is to translate deep technical breakthroughs into operational reality, solving some of the hardest systems-level problems in industry.
About the Role
Selling autonomous systems into manufacturing, infrastructure, and logistics means our customers audit us before they trust us — security and compliance are a precondition for deploying our platform, not a function beside it.
We hold SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO 27001, and we're moving toward more certifications because governing autonomous industrial systems responsibly is a commercial requirement in our market. You'll own our certification programs and the security and infrastructure underneath them — across our multi-account AWS organization, GCP footprint, and internal engineering platform. This role covers our own corporate and cloud environments, not customer plant-floor or control-system security.
This role is ideal for candidates who want real, ongoing ownership of a security function, including standing up and running one of the industry's first AI management systems, at a company where trust and compliance directly determine whether customers deploy the platform at all.
What You'll Do
-
Own the compliance calendar across SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO 27001 — evidence collection, access and vendor reviews, control monitoring, internal audit, management review, policy refresh, and audit readiness
-
Triage security findings across cloud posture, code scanning, dependencies, and secrets, and drive remediation to closure
-
Remediate what you triage directly in infrastructure as code, IAM policy, and pipeline configuration
-
Administer identity and access across cloud and SaaS, including SSO/federation, least-privilege roles, and the joiner/mover/leaver lifecycle
-
Support internal IT operations — endpoint fleet and device compliance, SaaS and license administration, asset inventory, support requests — while keeping the human cost of them flat as the company grows
-
Serve as the working interface to external auditors, our certification body, and customer security and procurement reviews
-
Build controls into infrastructure so they hold automatically, replacing manual verification with guardrails that fail closed
-
Harden CI/CD and the software supply chain — build identity, artifact provenance, dependency and secret hygiene
