Member of Technical Staff, Security & Compliance Lead

Responsibilities:

Own our compliance programmes end to end, starting with SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001: controls, evidence, policies, auditors and remediation.

Lead our path to the frameworks customers ask for most, including NDAA / TAA, HIPAA, CJIS, CMMC, ITAR and FedRAMP, and decide which to certify against and which to answer with documentation.

Partner with sales on customer security reviews, questionnaires and due-diligence calls, and build a trust centre and reusable answers so deals move faster.

Own data flows, retention and privacy controls for sensitive video and biometric data, including GDPR, Illinois BIPA and state-by-state retention rules.

Make compliance real: automate onboarding, offboarding and access reviews, and manage identity, SSO, MFA, device management and endpoint protection.

Own IT systems and vendors across our US, UK and India offices.

Work with engineering on security fixes and architecture changes, and lead incident response and customer communication when something goes wrong.

Build a prioritised security roadmap, report progress to leadership, and hire as the function grows.

Qualifications:

8+ years in security, compliance or IT, with ownership of a security and compliance programme at a B2B startup or scale-up.

Personally led a SOC 2 Type II audit, plus at least one more framework such as ISO 27001, HIPAA, CJIS, CMMC, ITAR or FedRAMP.

Experience selling into enterprise, government, law enforcement, defence or healthcare customers, and working closely with sales on security reviews.

Technical enough to work credibly with engineers: scripting (Python or Bash), cloud and infrastructure-as-code basics, identity platforms and device management.

Comfortable doing the detailed work yourself, from questionnaires to policies, while keeping the bigger picture in mind.

Able to explain risk clearly to non-technical people, and to push back on sales or leadership when it matters.

Experience leading or building a team is a plus, but not required.

Nice to have: biometric or video privacy experience, physical security or IoT hardware background, and certifications such as CISSP, CISM, CISA or OSCP.

Able to work on-site in the Bay Area.
