Compliance Engineering Lead

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Compliance Engineering Lead based in United States. This is a foundational opportunity to build and lead a modern compliance function as an engineered system rather than a collection of manual processes. You will own the compliance program end to end, with direct responsibility for SOC 2 Type II and the organization’s path to ISO 27001 certification. The role combines security, engineering, risk management, automation, and customer assurance in a high-growth environment. You’ll build continuous evidence pipelines, automate control monitoring, and strengthen vendor and risk-management programs. You’ll also shape the organization’s approach to AI assurance and emerging regulatory frameworks. Reporting directly to the CISO, you’ll have significant autonomy and the opportunity to hire and lead an initial team member while defining the future of GRC.
