- Rationalize overlapping requirements across frameworks to reduce compliance burden and create a single source of truth for control ownership.
- Partner with Engineering, Infrastructure, and Product Security to embed controls at the architecture level, not just as audit checkboxes.
- Build Gong's product & enterprise risk register from the ground up - defining risk taxonomy, scoring methodology, risk appetite thresholds, and ownership models.
- Implementation of a GRC platform and system of record, and ability to build executive level dashboards to track vulnerability, risk, and control remediation.
- Create and maintain risk treatment plans in partnership with risk owners across the business, tracking remediation milestones and escalating blockers.
- Develop executive-level risk reporting cadences and dashboards for the Head of GRC and senior leadership.

- Experience creating and implementing GRC Record of Truth/Tooling.
- Experience conducting and managing product & enterprise risk assessments, with a working knowledge of risk quantification methodologies.
- Bachelor's degree in Information Security, Computer Science, Business, or a related field
- 7+ years of progressive experience in GRC, Information Security, or a closely related function - with meaningful time spent building or scaling programs, not just running them.
- Demonstrated hands-on experience building a GRC program at scale - ideally in a high-growth SaaS or technology company.
- Strong policy and standards writing ability - capable of translating complex regulatory language into clear, actionable documentation.
- Proven ability to manage and communicate with senior stakeholders, including Legal, Engineering, and executive audiences.
- Bachelor's degree in Information Security, Computer Science, Business, or a related field; equivalent practical experience considered.
