Role
Who you are
- You have 6+ years of experience in compliance roles, including some experience with ITAR

- You are comfortable learning technical concepts as they relate to ITAR/EAR rules, especially related to radar
- You understand that compliance can be done many different ways and that just because it’s done a way at one company doesn’t mean that’s the best way to do it at CHAOS
- Ability to work with engineers, salespeople, and lawyers
- Excellent written and oral communication skills
- U.S. Person status is required as this position needs to access export-controlled data
What the job involves
- This role will be the first dedicated Compliance hire at CHAOS and set the foundation for a strong compliance organization as we grow
- It is a unique opportunity to build and shape a robust compliance framework from the ground up, with significant impact on our operational strategy and risk management
- This person will work closely with the VP of Operations on all areas of compliance, starting with a heavy focus on export and trade compliance
- They will work with Engineering, Business Development, and Operations to craft processes and systems that serve the business needs and ensure compliance at all times
- In addition to trade compliance, this person will also help roll out other compliance programs as needed, such as anti-corruption and technology controls
- For the right candidate, this will be an opportunity to grow in impact and scope as the business scales
- Administer full export compliance program, including helping with ITAR and EAR classifications and license applications, reviewing agreements, and identifying exemptions and exceptions
- Partner with cross-functional teams to integrate compliance considerations into product strategy, business development initiatives, and engineering/operational processes
- Design, implement, and manage recordkeeping systems and prepare scheduled and ad hoc reports and information requests
- Oversee and maintain all company registrations related to compliance; serve as the primary administrator for government systems (e.g., DECCS, SNAP-R)
- Help design and implement new compliance-related policies as needed
- Work full-time onsite at our office in Los Angeles (Hawthorne), California
Our take
In the modern world, defence industries must meet ever-evolving threats through new technologies, meaning that forward-thinking is the crux of battling sophisticated threats. CHAOS Industries consists of engineers and researchers building the next generation of defence and critical industry technologies.
Its products to date include the CHAOS Coherent Distributed Network, a time synchronicity platform, and HYDRA that facilitates land, sea and air-based detection and communications. Easy to integrate into existing defence systems, HYDRA can be deployed into challenging warfare environments - providing unique solutions for US defence industries.
In the face of a highly complex threat landscape, it’s unsurprising that CHAOS has received considerable funding. This will support the company’s commercial growth and product development. It’s also hired a former congressman and ex-CIA veteran as its Chief Strategy Officer, exemplifying its alignment with key defence sectors in the US.
