Role
We are looking for a Senior Manager of Global Commercial Compliance to join our Global Commercial Compliance department, reporting to the Director of Technology Compliance. This is a remote or hybrid role if based in San Jose, California. You will lead and scale our global commercial compliance program across international, public sector, privacy, and AI-related assurance frameworks. In this role, you will drive strategy and operational execution for key customer and regulator-facing commitments, ensuring a strong, audit-ready posture across multiple global standards.
What you’ll do (Role Expectations)
Own and evolve the global commercial compliance strategy across international and public sector assurance programs to align with customer and regulatory expectations
Build scalable compliance programs that unify requirements across frameworks like ISO, SOC, and PCI, incorporating privacy-by-design and AI governance
Lead internal audit activities and end-to-end external assessments while serving as the primary liaison to third-party certification bodies
Establish compliance health metrics and dashboards to track control performance, evidence maturity, and remediation cycle times
Provide executive-ready reporting on compliance posture and risk trends to senior leadership and relevant governance bodies
Who You Are (Success Profile)
You thrive in ambiguity. You're comfortable building the path as you walk it. You thrive in a dynamic environment, seeing ambiguity not as a hindrance, but as the raw material to build something meaningful.
You act like an owner. Your passion for the mission fuels your bias for action. You operate with integrity because you genuinely care about the outcome. True ownership involves leveraging dynamic range: the ability to navigate seamlessly between high-level strategy and hands-on execution.
You are a problem-solver. You love running towards the challenges because you are laser-focused on finding the solution, knowing that solving the hard problems delivers the biggest impact.
You are a high-trust collaborator. You are ambitious for the team, not just yourself. You embrace our challenge culture by giving and receiving ongoing feedback—knowing that candor delivered with clarity and respect is the truest form of teamwork and the fastest way to earn trust.
You are a learner. You have a true growth mindset and are obsessed with your own development, actively seeking feedback to become a better partner and a stronger teammate. You love what you do and you do it with purpose.
What We’re Looking for (Minimum Qualifications)
Bachelor’s degree in Information Security, Information Systems, Computer Science, or a related field
7–10+ years of progressive experience in compliance, assurance, audit, or risk management, including leadership of global programs
Working knowledge of frameworks such as ISO 27001, ISO 22301, SOC 2, PCI DSS, C5, and IRAP with the ability to support AI governance concepts
Proven ability to manage audits end-to-end, including evidence strategy, control testing, and stakeholder coordination
Strong track record of leading cross-functional initiatives in complex, fast-paced environments
What Will Make You Stand Out (Preferred Qualifications)
Relevant professional certifications such as CISA, CISSP, CISM, CRISC, or ISO 27001 Lead Auditor
Experience building compliance infrastructure and maturing evidence quality within cloud and SaaS control environments
Ability to influence at the executive level and drive alignment across Product, Engineering, and GTM stakeholders
