You will run security risk assessments end-to-end within the company’s security risk management program—intake, scenario-based analysis, treatment decisions, and monitoring across security, infrastructure, and product risk.

• You will work with engineering SMEs and risk owners on risks ranging from over-privileged access and supply-chain gaps to product abuse and AI adoption, giving owners a clear, defensible basis for accepting or mitigating each one.

• You will build quarterly security risk reporting and the security risk content in leadership and board materials.

• You will help integrate security risk into enterprise risk management, so it is tracked and weighed alongside the rest of the business.

• You will help mature the program as its scope grows, and operate as an AI power user who automates the work so it scales.

• Run Security Risk Assessments:
  Triage intake, run scenario-based risk analyses with engineering SMEs, score initial and residual risk, and drive risk owners to a documented treatment decision. Your analysis turns vague concerns into decisions leadership can stand behind.
• Build Quarterly Risk Reporting:
  Gather updates on material risks, prepare the Security Risk Review, and build the security risk content for executive and board decks. Your reporting gives leadership a clear, current view of where security risk sits and what’s being done about it.
• Integrate Security Risk into ERM:
  Partner with enterprise risk stakeholders to map security risks into the enterprise taxonomy, align rating scales, and keep the registers in sync. Your work puts security risk alongside business risk instead of in a silo.
• Mature the Program:
  Help evolve the risk framework, register, key risk indicators, and risk-owner self-service as the program’s scope grows. Your work moves the program from tracking risks to measuring and reducing them.
• Support FedRAMP 20x Risk Decisions:
  Help make sure unmet FedRAMP rules and KSI gaps carry a documented risk explanation and senior-official acceptance in the Security Decision Record, consistent with the risk register. Your work keeps the company’s FedRAMP risk posture defensible to agencies and assessors.
• Scale Through AI and Automation:
  Build AI skills and automations for intake triage, first-draft risk analyses, register hygiene, and report generation—and share them across the team. Your approach lets the program cover more risk without adding headcount.

Must haves:

• Security risk assessment:
  • Experience running scenario-based analyses of technical risks (cloud, IAM, software supply chain, application and product) using NIST SP 800-30, FAIR, or a comparable method.
  • Technical depth to engage engineers…
