About the role

We're looking for a GRC Analyst to join our security and compliance team.

From day one you'll get hands‑on with core operational areas of our program, including user access reviews, our security awareness program through the Adaptive Security platform, and third‑party risk management, with clear room to grow into broader ownership, audit leadership, and program strategy over time. This is a great fit for someone with solid working experience in security or compliance who's looking to build hands‑on ownership and deepen their skill set in a fast‑moving SaaS environment.

What you’ll do

• Support 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 of policy and control exceptions.
• Support the risk management program help perform annual and ad‑hoc risk assessments, maintain the risk register, partner with risk owners on remediation, and track issues through to closure.
• Support third‑party risk management run vendor and subprocessor risk assessments, conduct ongoing monitoring, and track remediation across our critical vendors.
• Execute internal audits using established test procedures to test control effectiveness, and support external audit cycles by coordinating evidence, control owners, and remediation.
• Help maintain continuous control monitoring and evidence automation support administration of our GRC platform, keep automated control tests and evidence healthy, and help maintain audit readiness year‑round rather than point‑in‑time.
• Build 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 help them understand their control responsibilities and expectations, prepare for audits, and operationalize controls rather than treat compliance as a checkbox.
• Help keep the policy library current support reviews and updates to security policies, standards, and procedures so they stay practical and aligned to the frameworks we operate under.
• Turn program data into insights help translate access review, awareness, and risk findings into insights and metrics that flag high‑risk users, teams, or behaviors, and support reporting to leadership.
• 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 and move toward more senior scope:

• Greater ownership of core programs move from supporting established processes to owning entire workstreams (user access reviews, security awareness, third‑party risk) end‑to‑end.
• Audit leadership progress from executing established test procedures to helping design new ones, scoping audits, and coordinating auditors directly.
• Program and control maturity contribute to control improvement and automation initiatives that raise the bar on how efficiently we run the program as we scale.
• Growing influence as you build expertise, you'll have opportunities to mentor newer team members and represent GRC in cross‑functional projects.

What we’re looking for

• 3-5 years of experience in GRC, IT audit, information security, or a closely related field
• Working knowledge of major security and privacy frameworks such as SOC 2, ISO 27001/27701/42001, NIST CSF, HIPAA, GDPR, or CCPA
• Experience with GRC platforms (Anecdotes, Vanta, Drata, Secureframe, OneTrust, ServiceNow GRC)
• Experience running user access reviews and a solid understanding of identity and access management concepts (RBAC, least privilege, segregation of duties, JML processes)
• Hands‑on experience administering a security awareness or phishing simulation platform (Adaptive Security, KnowBe4, Hoxhunt, Proofpoint, or similar)
• Comfort with cloud environments (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and how SaaS products are built and operated
• Strong written communication; you can translate control requirements and security concepts into language engineers, customers, and non‑technical employees understand
• Detail‑oriented and organized, with the ability to juggle multiple audits, campaigns, and deadlines
• A collaborative mindset; you enjoy working across teams rather than gatekeeping
