Security & Compliance Lead
The Role
We’re looking for a proactive, detail-oriented Security & Compliance Lead to own our security governance, compliance operations, and customer trust initiatives. This is a high-impact, cross-functional role, perfect for someone who thrives on translating policy into practical processes, working closely with engineers, legal, and leadership, and ensuring our systems meet the highest standards expected by customers, auditors, and regulators. You’ll be the company’s first dedicated hire in security compliance, reporting to our Director of Engineering Operations and partnering with Platform Engineering, Legal, and our vCISO to build a strong, scalable security posture.
Working at CompanyCam
Our engineering team is remote-first, spanning every time zone in the United States. We welcome people from all backgrounds and really don't care whether or not you have a CS degree or even a high school diploma. All that matters is that you're not an a**hole and you're good at what you do.
At CompanyCam we’re driven to produce work with meaningful outcomes. That means not just dumping features and “improvements” but being able to reflect and learn from our outputs. We’re actively working to center our work on continuous discovery habits (CDH) as outlined by Teresa Torres.
Okay, that’s how we identify work to do, but how do we actually work? Our teams are made up of a product manager, a product designer, a tech lead and an appropriate number of engineers for the scope of your team. We take a flexible approach, pulling from Agile, Scrum, Kanban, and even Shape Up. Rather than being overly prescriptive, we provide guardrails and just enough constraints to keep teams moving. Each team is expected to collaborate, iterate, and refine their best practices to produce high-quality work.
What You'll Do
- Own day-to-day operations of our SOC 2 Type II compliance program (powered by Vanta), including evidence collection, control monitoring, and audit readiness
- Serve as the security & compliance subject matter expert for engineering and product teams, maintaining internal documentation and consulting during product design and delivery
- Coordinate annual third-party penetration testing: schedule tests, triage findings, track remediation, and schedule retests
- Manage and maintain our customer-facing Trust Center, ensuring disclosures on security, privacy, and compliance are current
- Review procurement and vendor contracts for security-related requirements and risks
- Respond to security questionnaires and due diligence requests from prospective customers and partners
- Collaborate with Legal to translate regulatory and contractual requirements into clear engineering specifications and support subpoena responses
- Maintain and improve security policies, conduct risk assessments, and support remediation efforts across teams
- Promote a strong security culture through awareness training and supporting secure-by-default engineering practices
- Stay informed about emerging threats and evolving compliance obligations
The Impact You'll Have
- Be the cornerstone of CompanyCam’s security and compliance, directly influencing customer trust and satisfaction
- Enable engineering and product teams to build and ship with confidence by embedding security and compliance best practices early in development
- Drive continuous improvement in our security posture, helping scale governance sustainably as we grow
- Strengthen CompanyCam’s market position by maintaining a robust Trust Center and ensuring compliance with evolving regulations
- Collaborate cross-functionally to shape security culture and practices, empowering teams and reducing organizational risk
What You'll Bring
Must-haves
These are our non-negotiables:
- Show up: Have the courage to do difficult but necessary work
