Role
Who you are

- Experience working in the GRC product industry, or having developed internal GRC tools for a mid-size or large company
- Experience owning a GRC program at a mid-size or large company is a plus
- Knowledge and understand of privacy frameworks and regulations such as GDPR and CCPA is a plus

What the job involves
- Reports to the CTO
- Develop TrustCloud’s Common Control Framework by designing common controls based on NIST 800-53, and mapping them to a diverse set of frameworks and standards
- Develop testing and evidence strategies for TrustCloud’s Common Control Framework, and deploying them to our product catalog to be used by customers
- Develop Risk Frameworks, in conjunction with our advisors, which include a set of Risks, Controls, and Policies focused around a particular issue, such as AI, Ransomware, and supply chain
- Provide input and leadership as the voice of the GRC expert in TrustCloud’s new product features and capabilities

- Implement design-partner projects with cutting edge customers in a hands-on fashion
- As a secondary role, occasionally provide training for our consulting and audit partners, and our support and customer success teams
Our take
SaaS companies need to pass rigorous security and compliance checks before landing contracts with enterprise businesses - including attaining certifications and answering extensive questionnaires. This has resulted in some parties treating compliance like a box-ticking exercise, ultimately eroding trust in the entire process. Trustcloud, formerly Kintent, is on a mission to restore it.
The Trustcloud Platform helps companies get audited for compliance and security certifications, share its compliance program with customers, and automate answers to security questionnaires. The latter point aims to streamline the process for its clients, as well as design out the risk of embellished responses tailored to what enterprises want to hear.
So it’s a thorough, all-in-one approach that shores up violation and security risks for enterprise and SaaS companies alike. This helps Trustcloud pull away from a pretty large pack, which is composed mainly of more focused compliance automation services like Secureframe and Osano.
As the enterprise SaaS market goes from strength to strength, the need for trustworthy and effective compliance solutions is on the up. Building out a competitively comprehensive offering will help Trustcloud take advantage of this.
