The engagement

Contract, remote within the United States, paid per engagement. Work is typically one to three days per client engagement, attached to a penetration test, plus occasional readiness reviews.

What you will do

  • Produce the framework mapping section of each report and the attestation letter clients hand to auditors and customers.
  • Review client scope against the requirement that drives the test (for example PCI DSS 11.4 segmentation testing or NYDFS 500.5) and flag gaps before testing starts.
  • Answer auditor and customer security questionnaire follow-ups about the test with the client.
  • Run readiness reviews for clients preparing for a first SOC 2 Type II or PCI DSS assessment.
  • Keep the compliance mapping templates current as frameworks change.

What we need

  • Four or more years in security compliance, audit or GRC with direct experience of SOC 2 and at least one of PCI DSS, HIPAA, ISO 27001, NYDFS 500 or CMMC.
  • Enough technical grounding to read a penetration test finding and explain what it means for a control.
  • Clear writing for auditors, executives and engineers.
  • Based in the United States with authorization to work here; engagements run on US time and clients are US companies.
  • Comfortable working to a fixed, written scope and saying early when something in it is wrong.
  • Two professional references from people who have seen your work on a live engagement.

Nice to have

  • Time on the assessor side (QSA, SOC 2 audit team, C3PAO) or inside a compliance automation platform.
  • Experience with New York financial services or healthcare clients.
