About the Role

🌟 Role Summary: This is not a traditional compliance or GRC role.

- Writing and reviewing Infrastructure as Code
- Owning CI/CD pipelines
- Implementing security controls in production
- Working closely with DevOps and Engineering teams

- Design and maintain security controls within Terraform-managed infrastructure
- Embed security into CI/CD pipelines
- Implement automated security checks and policy-as-code controls
- Partner with engineering to improve secure software delivery practices

Security Operations
- Own vulnerability management and remediation workflows
- Improve logging, monitoring, and detection capabilities
- Lead incident response efforts and post-incident reviews
- Coordinate penetration testing and remediation activities
- Develop security playbooks and operational procedures\

Compliance & Audit Readiness
- Implement and maintain technical controls required for: SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, NIST-based frameworks
- Produce technical evidence demonstrating effective control operation
- Work with auditors, assessors, and external security partners
- Support future government-oriented compliance initiatives
