Senior GRC Engineer
Full Job Posting
Your Impact
Act as a technical GRC partner to technical and non-technical teams, translating compliance, governance, and risk requirements into implementation details, and engaging credibly in architecture/design discussions
Use the cross-framework control crosswalk to identify synergies across regulatory requirements, so engineers build one common solution instead of duplicating effort per certification
Support customer-facing security/compliance conversations requiring deeper technical context (platform architecture, control implementation, how obligations are met)
Build the processes, scripts, workflows, and tooling that embed controls into daily operations, and design automation that keeps compliance/risk data current continuously rather than refreshed only ahead of audits
Create knowledge-sharing resources and clear documentation/diagrams that help partners understand the reasoning behind a control — whether it's a compliance obligation, a customer request, or an emerging threat — not just the mechanics of it
Partner with Risk Management to engineer risk identification, scoring, and monitoring into day-to-day operations; support continuous monitoring (ConMon) across Compliance, Risk, and Governance; and build working knowledge of the Anaplan product/platform over time
Your Qualifications
6+ years in security engineering, GRC, DevSecOps, or a closely related technical role, with hands-on exposure to compliance/regulatory frameworks
Comfortable writing scripts or light code (Python, Bash, or similar) to automate evidence collection, reporting, or monitoring tasks
Working knowledge of at least two of: ISO 27001 and its extensions (27017, 27018, 27701, 42001), SOC 1/2, Cyber Essentials, or similar, including experience using a cross-framework control mapping/crosswalk to reduce duplicate implementation effort
Comfortable building and reading system/data-flow diagrams, and proficient with a GRC/risk platform (e.g., Drata, Vanta, Hyperproof, Archer, OneTrust, ServiceNow GRC, or similar)
Experience translating compliance/risk requirements into implementation guidance engineering teams can act on
Comfort engaging directly with both engineering teams and customers on technical topics, and building process/tooling in a growing function
Nice-to-Have
- Hands-on experience applying AI/LLM tooling to a real operational workflow — for example, automating a repetitive review step or summarizing evidence for a control
- Familiarity with OSCAL or similar machine-readable control languages
- Experience with quantitative or semi-quantitative risk scoring methodologies (e.g., FAIR or similar)
- Experience with FedRAMP and/or HIPAA/HITRUST is a plus — especially if you have experience across more than one of these
- Experience supporting external audits or assessments as a technical point of contact
- Certifications such as CISA, CISSP, or ISO 27001 Lead Implementer
- #LI-SP1
- Base Salary Range:
