Job summary

United States Digital Space LLC is seeking a Director of Security Compliance and Trust to lead governance, risk and compliance across ISO 27001/27701, SOC 1/2, PCI DSS and FedRAMP. You will drive privacy, data protection and AI governance while partnering with Legal, Engineering and Sales to turn compliance into a business enabler.

You will build and lead a global, AI-first team, own the audit calendar, and direct regulatory readiness for new markets, including Canada and the EU.

Qualifications

• 8+ years in security compliance, GRC, privacy, audit or risk management, including 5+ years in leadership roles managing both people managers and senior individual contributors
• Demonstrably hands-on. You have personally written the policies, designed the controls, built the control mappings, sat through fieldwork and answered the hardest customer questions yourself
• Proven ownership of multi-framework compliance programs at scale in a cloud-native SaaS environment — ISO 27001, SOC 1 and SOC 2, and PCI DSS as core
• Deep, operational privacy experience across GDPR and CCPA/CPRA, with hands-on ownership of DSAR operations, DPIAs, ROPA and cross-border transfer mechanics
• Experience standing up compliance and privacy in new international markets, ideally including Canada, the EU, Mexico or Latin America

Responsibilities

• Own the compliance, privacy and trust function end-to-end — org design, hiring, and global team development — and act as the company's senior authority on the control environment, deciding which frameworks we adopt and where we accept versus remediate risk
• Build a single integrated control framework that maps once to many across ISO 27001/27701, SOC 1 and SOC 2, PCI DSS, FedRAMP, GDPR and CCPA/CPRA
• Own the annual audit calendar end-to-end, manage auditor and assessor relationships directly, and lead the company's path to FedRAMP from the ground up as public sector opportunity matures
• Own privacy compliance operations — data subject rights, DPIAs, ROPA and cross-border transfer mechanics — treating driver data as the sensitive category it is
• Own regulatory readiness for new markets ahead of go-to-market, partnering with Engineering and Platform on data residency and regional architecture
• Be the face of the company's security and privacy posture to customers — owning trust.gomotive.com, scaling security questionnaire and review response, and serving as the senior escalation point in enterprise deals
• Architect the AI-first operating model for the function, personally building and iterating on evidence automation, continuous control monitoring and AI-assisted questionnaire response
• Own the security policy and standards library and its exceptions process, along with company-wide security training, phishing simulation and human risk measurement
• Establish the company's AI governance program across both product and internal AI use, building against ISO/IEC 42001, the NIST AI Risk Management Framework and the EU AI Act
