At a glance
As a Sr. Security Governance Engineer, you will join the Assurance team to transition legacy governance into a continuous, automated engineering discipline. You will translate enterprise security policies and regulatory requirements into measurable, technically actionable controls, moving away from manual spreadsheets toward a model where controls are code. Your daily responsibilities include developing security policies, managing the policy lifecycle, and defining machine-readable requirements using tools like OPA/Rego or cloud-native frameworks. You will serve as a subject matter expert for domains such as IAM, Cloud, and Data Protection, ensuring traceability from regulations to implementation. The role requires proficiency with NIST CSF, ISO 27001, and SOC 2, alongside knowledge of AWS, Azure, or GCP, to build scalable governance integrated into modern CI/CD workflows.
