Role Summary

The technical backbone of our compliance automation function within the Trust and Assurance team. This is a hands-on, technically focused individual contributor role responsible for solving complex GRC domain problems through automation, AI tooling, and platform engineering rather than through process management alone.

The role owns the design and operationalization of compliance automation capabilities: integrating the GRC platform with cloud systems and internal tooling, building AI agents that automate evidence collection and control evaluation, and enabling continuous monitoring to replace point-in-time compliance snapshots with ongoing, automated assurance. The ideal candidate brings deep compliance framework knowledge, a strong engineering mindset, and demonstrated fluency with AI-assisted workflows to translate compliance requirements into scalable, automated solutions while remaining a capable contributor to day-to-day GRC operations.

What You Will Do

Platform Engineering & Integration

• Own and operate the GRC platform (control mapping, evidence collection, continuous monitoring, and audit workflows), serving as the technical lead for all GRC SaaS integrations.
• Integrate GRC tools with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) and internal systems (e.g., Jira, BigQuery) using APIs and scripting.
• Design and implement automated workflows for evidence collection, control monitoring, and remediation tracking.
• Build and maintain dashboards to visualize compliance posture, key risk indicators, and program maturity for both technical and executive audiences.

AI & Automation

• Design, build, and operate AI agents that automate the compliance lifecycle across applicable frameworks (ISO 27001, SOC 2, FedRAMP, etc.).
• Apply AI-assisted workflows to evidence validation, control evaluation, finding management, and audit preparation.
• Identify process gaps and implement scalable governance improvements through automation and tooling.

Compliance Program Support

• Conduct gap analyses and support implementation of new compliance frameworks and associated controls.
• Prepare compliance documentation, control evidence, and control owners for internal and external audits.
• Monitor adherence to internal controls and external regulatory requirements (e.g., ISO 27001, NIST 800-53, SOC 2, GDPR, HIPAA, FedRAMP).
• Translate regulatory requirements and domain expertise into technical control implementations and automated agent logic.
• Contribute to policy authoring, change management, and manual controls enforcement as a high-bandwidth team member.

Stakeholder Collaboration & Reporting

• Partner cross-functionally with engineering, product, security, and legal teams to ensure controls are not only documented but operationalized.
• Communicate compliance risk and control status to technical and non-technical stakeholders through clear reporting and executive-ready summaries.
• Participate in security reviews and risk discussions related to cloud and data platform environments.
• Work independently, leveraging existing documentation, standards, and prior artifacts to resolve issues before escalating.

What You Will Bring

• Bachelor's degree in Cybersecurity, Information Technology, Computer Science, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
• 4+ years of experience in GRC, engineering, or a technical discipline supporting cybersecurity programs.
• In-depth knowledge of cybersecurity frameworks including NIST 800-53, ISO 27001, SOC 2, and/or FedRAMP.
• Technical background in systems administration, software engineering, cloud security, or security engineering.
• Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and distributed application security concepts.
• Hands-on experience with a GRC platforms for control tracking, evidence management, and findings remediation.
• Proficiency with security monitoring concepts and tooling (e.g., encryption, authentication, Tenable, Splunk).
• Demonstrated professional use of AI tools to support drafting, analysis, evaluation, or workflow automation within compliance or technical programs.
• Strong project management skills with experience leading security assessment initiatives across multiple stakeholders.
• Familiarity with Git workflows and repository access management.

Preferred Qualifications

• Proficiency in Python or scripting language with experience in API integrations and data processing.
• Experience building AI/ML-powered applications or agentic systems.
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines and deploying production-grade services.
• Prior experience leading a SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, FedRAMP, or NIST 800-53 audit end-to-end.
• Experience with OSCAL (Open Security Controls Assessment Language) or other compliance automation tooling.
• Experience in SaaS, GovCloud, FinTech, or other highly regulated technology environments.
• Familiarity with cloud infrastructure automation and configuration tooling (e.g., Terraform, Puppet, Jenkins).
• Professional certifications such as CISSP, CISM, CISA, CCSP, CCSK, or ISO 27001 Lead Auditor.

In Canada, the base salary for this role ranges from $109,000 to $181,000. In addition to base salary, we offer additional compensation including bonus eligibility and a comprehensive benefits package. A candidate's specific pay within this range will depend on a variety of factors, including job-related skills, training, location, experience, relevant education, certifications, and other business and organizational needs.
