About the teamThe Security Governance team is the operational backbone of Salesforce's security Assurance program. We own the lifecycle of the Salesforce Security Standards (SFSS) - translating regulatory obligations, customer commitments, and threat intelligence into clear, enforceable requirements for engineering, IT, and product teams. We're hiring an Analyst to run day-to-day operations of the standards and policy program: intake, drafting support, cross-functional review, publication, and retirement.
This role sits at the intersection of Security, Compliance, and Engineering - a strong fit for someone skilled at policy development, authorship, and managing complex stakeholders without losing quality or momentum.
- Prioritize:
Triage intake for new/updated standards, policies, and control documents - assign owners and set realistic timelines. - Build:
Partner with SMEs (Security Architecture, Prod Sec, Trust, Privacy, Legal) to draft and finalize standards in plain, unambiguous language with crisp technical requirements. - Facilitate:
Own the review/approval cycle end-to-end - schedule CAB reviews, prep read-aheads, capture decisions, track action items. - Manage:
Publish approved standards to the eGRC platform and retire superseded documents. - Operate:
Keep the standards register traceable from external obligations (SOC 2, ISO 27001, FedRAMP, EU AI Act, NIST CSF) to internal SFSS controls. - Maintain:
Run content reviews so every standard has an owner, current review date, and clear ownership map - flag drift, drive re-attestations. - Monitor:
Build dashboards on standards health - coverage, freshness, exception load, adoption signals. - Improve:
Support onboarding of new standards driven by high-priority initiatives. - Announce:
Coordinate stakeholder comms - change logs, engineering briefings, Slack updates. - Partner:
Work with the Exception Management team so every standard has a paired exception path with defined approvers and evidence expectations. - Optimize:
Improve the operating model - templates, workflows, checklists, eGRC config - to reduce cycle time without sacrificing quality. - Advance:
Responsibly use AI/GenAI tooling to accelerate drafting, redlining, and summarization, with human-at-the-helm review.
- 3+ years in security governance, GRC, technical writing, program management, or compliance operations at a software/product tech company.
- U.S. Citizenship or Permanent Residency.
- We are unable to provide visa sponsorship for this role.
- Direct security-domain experience (App Sec, cloud security, IAM, vulnerability management, or GRC-adjacent) - deep enough to read controls, understand risk, and challenge a requester's draft.
- Proven ability to write clear standards/policies non-security readers can act on.
- Working knowledge of a major security/privacy framework (SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST CSF, FedRAMP, PCI, HIPAA, EU AI Act, or equivalent).
- Comfort running cross-functional review cycles with senior stakeholders.
- Experience with Git; familiarity with OSCAL and Markdown.
- Experience with a GRC platform (Salesforce eGRC, Service Now GRC, Archer, One Trust, Logic Gate, or similar).
- Excellent written and verbal English communication.
- Ability to work independently across many parallel work streams.
- Highest level of ethics, independence, and professionalism.
- Experience at a cloud/SaaS/platform company under multiple concurrent audit regimes.
- Familiarity with the Salesforce platform, trust model, or App Exchange/partner ecosystem.
- Exposure to AI/ML governance (model risk, third-party…
