Strong scripting and integration skills using Python, JavaScript, APIs, webhooks , or workflow automation tools. Ability to work cross-functionally with security, compliance, legal, and infrastructure teams to translate policies into scalable technical systems. Familiarity with compliance frameworks such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, or NIST 800-53, and how they map to real-world infrastructure and operations. Bonus points if you have: Hands-on experience with event-driven automation platforms like Tines and their use in control validation and alerting. Expertise in building evidence pipelines , tagging telemetry, or creating GRC dashboards in tools like Looker or Metabase. Strong understanding of cloud-native security architecture and its relationship to compliance controls (e.g., AWS IAM, encryption, logging). Experience working in customer trust, privacy engineering , or supporting sales/GTM teams with compliance assurance content. What you can expect: Lead the implementation and integration of our GRC platform , ensuring it is fully operationalized across key systems and workflows. Build out automated workflows for control testing, evidence collection, and audit readiness. Develop and maintain integrations between the GRC platform and systems of record (e.g., ticketing systems, IAM, asset inventories, configuration management). Design dashboards and reporting to track control health, trust signals, and audit performance .
