Senior InfoSec Risk & Compliance Specialist

Our cybersecurity and information security teams at IDEXX contribute to a more resilient, adaptable, and security-aware enterprise prepared to navigate today’s evolving threat landscape. We have complex, multi-dimensional programs across the organization that support all the technology needed to deliver products and solutions to customers - enabling them to focus on delivering high quality patient care.

IDEXX's Information Security team safeguards the organization against cyber risk and ensures compliance with industry standards and regulations. The Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) group leads governance policy, cyber risk management, third-party risk, SOX compliance, SOC 2 compliance, global privacy compliance, and cyber risk training and assessments.

The Info Sec Compliance team supports SOC 2, SOX, and PCI audits, and its coverage is expanding quickly: new European requirements could bring approximately 33 additional products into scope, including products without existing SOC 2 reports, and emerging state-level cybersecurity requirements (including Colorado and California) are adding further obligations. Because headcount will not scale at the same pace as this expanding scope, technology and automation are central to how the team succeeds.

As a Senior Info Sec Risk & Compliance Specialist
, you will help modernize how the compliance function operates — moving the team from point-in-time, retrospective evidence collection toward continuous control monitoring and a shared foundation of evidence that supports multiple audits and regulatory obligations at once.

• You will support SOC 2, SOX, and PCI audits, coordinating with external auditors and internal teams, and act as the first line of defense before internal or external review.
• You will move the team beyond screenshot collection and backward-looking reviews of whether a control operated over the prior period, designing continuous monitoring that surfaces control failures as they happen.
• You will identify opportunities to modernize compliance work — through API integrations, configurable GRC/compliance platforms, dashboards and visualizations, practical AI use, or well-built Excel solutions — and take ownership of implementing them.
• You will connect compliance findings to organizational risk, distinguishing significant control failures (for example, missing encryption) from lower-risk documentation gaps, and drive appropriately prioritized remediation.
• You will help build a common foundation of controls and evidence that can flex to support multiple regulatory obligations — SOC 2, SOX, PCI, and emerging EU and state requirements — without a one-to-one increase in headcount.
• You will support and provide some coaching and feedback to a Grade 600 teammate who owns aspects of the SOC 2 program; this role can appeal to someone building toward future people leadership, though no management progression is guaranteed.
• You will communicate tactical and strategic updates to business teams and leaders, and bring an autonomous, curious, and forward-thinking approach rather than repeating the same audit the same way each year.

• 5 to 7+ years of experience within IT Audit, GRC, Controls, Risk Assessment, or Internal Audit. Experience across all of SOC 2, SOX, and PCI is not required — core audit skills transfer well.
• At least one year of experience performing readiness assessments for SOC 2 (or comparable) compliance.
• One of these certifications: CISA, CISM, CISSP, CRISC, CRMA, or certification-eligible.
• Working knowledge of control and risk frameworks such as NIST, COSO, and COBIT, and how to develop and implement controls through them.
• Practical, hands-on use of AI tools in your day-to-day work — for example,…
