Role Summary

We're looking for a Compliance Operations Manager to join our Compliance Operations function and own the day-to-day management of our security & compliance programs. You'll manage our SOC 2 audit lifecycle end-to-end, working cross-functionally to gather evidence and keep our compliance posture audit ready year-round as well as working with the team to perform both internal and external audits. You will also partner with Engineering, Finance, Legal and others to determine what is required for uplifts to frameworks like Sarbanes-Oxley and ISO27001, creating and executing on roadmaps as we work to uplift this function. This is a hands-on, high-ownership role for someone who enjoys turning complex regulatory and framework requirements into clear, repeatable operational processes.

What You Will Do

Manage SOC 2 Compliance Operations

• Own day-to-day management of all compliance audit requirements for SOC 2, including readiness, fieldwork, and remediation cycles.
• Coordinate with auditors and internal stakeholders to ensure timely, accurate evidence collection and audit response.
• Work to implement and uplift security compliance tooling from both an audit and a trust center perspective.
• Track control performance continuously, flagging gaps or exceptions before they become audit findings.
• Maintain audit documentation, evidence repositories, and control narratives in a clean, defensible state at all times.

Drive SOX and ISO 27001 Uplift Initiatives

• Support strategy, control evaluation, and project management for new Sarbanes-Oxley compliance initiatives.
• Lead control evaluation and gap assessments for ISO 27001 readiness and certification efforts.
• Project-manage cross-functional uplift workstreams, including timelines, milestones, and stakeholder accountability.

Partner Cross-Functionally on Evidence & Controls

• Work directly with engineering, IT, finance, and business teams to gather and validate evidence across all compliance objectives.
• Build and maintain relationships with control owners so evidence requests are routine, not disruptive.
• Identify opportunities to automate or streamline recurring evidence collection using existing systems.
• Escalate risks, control weaknesses, or resourcing gaps to compliance leadership with clear context and recommendations.

Strengthen the Compliance Operating Model

• Maintain accurate control inventories, ownership mappings, and audit calendars leveraging tooling and automation wherever possible.
• Document processes and playbooks so compliance operations remain consistent as the company scales.
• Monitor the regulatory and framework landscape for changes that may affect existing controls or programs.

Requirements

• 5 years+ of experience in compliance operations, IT/security compliance, audit, or a related field.
• Strong background in compliance and privacy, with direct experience supporting SOC 2 audits.
• Working knowledge of SOX and ISO 27001 frameworks, or demonstrated ability to learn and apply new frameworks quickly.
• Comfort managing multiple audit and uplift workstreams simultaneously, with strong project management skills.
• Experience partnering cross-functionally with engineering, IT, and business teams to collect evidence and drive control ownership.
• System comfort across tools such as AWS, Jira, GitHub, HubSpot, Google Workspace, and Slack.
• Excellent written communication skills, with the ability to translate technical and regulatory detail for non-specialist audiences.
• High attention to detail and strong personal accountability for accuracy and completeness of compliance records.
• Bonuses:
• Prior experience in a startup or high-growth environment.
• Experience with compliance automation or GRC tooling.
• Familiarity with additional frameworks such as GDPR, CCPA, or HIPAA.
• Experience preparing for or supporting a company's first SOC 2, SOX, or ISO 27001 certification.

What You'll Get

• A full-time position, with a competitive salary based on experience. The base salary for this role is $130k - $160k.

We use market data and consider your job family, background, skills, experience, and U.S. work location to determine compensation within our established pay range.
• Fully remote work environment with home office set-up allowance.
