Job Description
We are seeking a hands-on, builder-minded Senior Technical Compliance Analyst to serve as the operational engine behind our Trust & Security program.
You will maintain our SOC 2 Type II posture, drive our second entity from Type I to Type II, and act as the bridge between compliance requirements and engineering & delivery execution. You will also lay the technical groundwork to evolve us toward **CMMC 2.0**, ensuring we are ready for federal contracts without slowing down our product velocity.
**This is not a "compliance cop" role.** We practice **"Yes, if..."** security—you will influence architecture, automate policy enforcement, and unblock enterprise sales by ensuring the Security team has pristine, verifiable evidence at their fingertips.
What You will Do
Powering Customer Trust & Revenue Enablement
- The Engine Behind Revenue: Help drafting accurate, technically precise responses to RFPs, security questionnaires (CAIQ, SIG, custom risk assessments), and customer portals.
- Repository Stewardship: Own and continuously update the "Library of Truth"—a pristine repository of pre-vetted security evidence, technical configurations, and policy documents. By keeping this repository audit-ready, you enable the Security team to respond to enterprise prospects in hours, not days.
- Technical Depth on Demand: When a customer asks about AWS KMS encryption, logging pipelines, or IAM privilege escalation paths, you retrieve the granular evidence and draft the written narrative the Security and Legal Team needs to confidently close the deal.
Building Compliance into the DNA
- Compliance Partner: Partner with IT, Security, Product, Engineering, and Delivery early in the development lifecycle. Review new features, infrastructure changes, and vendor integrations to influence architectural decisions that bake in compliance by design—without creating friction or slowing sprints.
- Policy as Guardrails: Write, update, and operationalize security policies that accelerate delivery. Translate abstract SOC 2 and NIST controls into clear, developer-friendly tasks (e.g., IAM hardening, log retention, Zero Trust implementation).
