IT & Security Compliance Manager

About Warp

Warp is the AI-native Employee Management Platform for ambitious companies. HRIS, payroll, benefits, IT, tax compliance, and more, all built from scratch on one AI-native platform.

Every company runs on its people, and the software that manages them is some of the oldest in the enterprise. Incumbents like ADP and Workday built their businesses on complexity and large ops teams. Warp is built for AI to be the primary operator. Every advance in LLM capability widens our lead.

We process $X billion in annual payments for high-growth companies across all 50 US states + globally.

We've raised $85M from Battery Ventures, Sapphire Ventures, Peak XV, Sound Ventures (Ashton Kutcher), and Y Combinator, alongside operators including Tobi Lütke (Shopify), Claire Hughes Johnson (Stripe), and the founders of Dropbox and Replit. Our team comes from MIT, Ramp, Brex, Google, Gusto, Rippling, and more.

We hire people who ship constantly, own outcomes, and care about craft. If you want to automate an entire category of work that every company depends on, this is the place.

Warp has grown from 10 to 70 people in the past year, and the systems that work for a small startup don't work for long at this scale. We're looking for an IT & Security Compliance Manager to build and own the infrastructure that keeps Warp secure, compliant, and operational as we continue to grow. You'll own how Warp employees access the tools and systems they need to do their jobs, how devices are provisioned and secured, how we meet our compliance obligations, and how we protect our offices and physical infrastructure.

That includes identity and access management, endpoint management, employee onboarding and offboarding, SOC 1, SOC 2, HIPAA, vendor security, and physical security. This role also has a unique opportunity to directly influence what we build for our customers. IT is a growing part of the Warp product, and you'll be both the person operating these systems internally and an expert helping us rethink how they should work.

You'll work closely with product and engineering to inform our IT product suite across identity and access, device management, employee lifecycle, and more. You'll dogfood what we build, identify where existing IT tools and workflows fall short, and help us build a better version for our customers. This is a hands-on role. You'll implement systems yourself, automate processes that shouldn't be manual, work directly with engineering and operations, and own projects from identifying the problem through implementation.

We're looking for someone who can operate the systems we need today while designing them for a company many times our current size.

• Manage vendor security and third-party risk, including security reviews and ongoing vendor access

• Own office and physical security, including badge access, visitor management, and related policies and systems

• Partner with engineering on security initiatives that cross corporate and product infrastructure

• Work closely with product and engineering to inform Warp's IT product suite, bringing…
