Senior GRC Specialist

About the role

We're looking for a GRC Specialist to join our security and compliance team. You'll help us mature our compliance program across frameworks like SOC 2, HIPAA, ISO 27001, ISO 27701, ISO 42001, and GDPR - supporting audits, managing risk, and partnering with engineering and operations teams to keep our controls effective as we scale. From day one you'll own operational cornerstones of our program, including user access reviews, our security awareness program through the Adaptive Security platform, and third-party risk management, with room to grow into broader audit and program leadership over time. This is a great fit for someone with a foundation in security or compliance who's ready to take ownership of meaningful work in a fast-moving SaaS environment.

What you'll do

• Own day-to-day GRC operations - including (but not limited to) user access reviews and certifications, security awareness and phishing/deepfake simulation facilitation, JML tracking, and triage and enforcement of policy and control exceptions.
• Run the risk management program - perform annual and ad-hoc risk assessments, maintain the risk register, partner with risk owners on remediation, and track issues through to closure.
• Manage third-party risk - run vendor and subprocessor risk assessments, conduct ongoing monitoring, and track remediation across our critical vendors.
• Design and execute targeted internal audits to test control effectiveness, and facilitate or support external audit cycles by coordinating evidence, control owners, and remediation.
• Own continuous control monitoring and evidence automation - administer our GRC platform, keep automated control tests and evidence healthy, and maintain audit readiness year-round rather than point-in-time.
• Build and foster relationships with cross-functional partners across engineering, IT, operations, legal, and sales - meeting teams where they are rather than gatekeeping.
• Partner with control owners to educate them on their control responsibilities, ownership, and expectations; prepare them for audits; and help them operationalize controls rather than treat compliance as a checkbox.
• Keep the policy library current - review and update security policies, standards, and procedures so they stay practical and aligned to the frameworks we operate under.
• Turn program data into action - translate access review, awareness, and risk findings into insights and metrics that flag high-risk users, teams, or behaviors, report to leadership, and drive targeted interventions.
• Take on additional GRC projects as the program evolves; we're a growing team and priorities shift.

How the role will grow

As you build context on our environment and program, you'll take on broader ownership across third-party risk, audit leadership, and program maturity:

• End-to-end audit leadership - move from supporting audits to ownin
