Echo is seeking a Cybersecurity GRC Program Analyst to build the operating system for security governance, risk, controls, evidence, and exceptions across the enterprise. This is a hands-on role for someone who can select and drive adoption of a primary cybersecurity framework, build the control ownership model, build & improve evidence operations, accelerate questionnaire throughput, and create practical governance mechanisms that work with real engineering and business teams. Own the automated CCM platform.

This role is not limited to policy writing or audit coordination. It is intended to make security governance real and measurable across the enterprise by building practical operating mechanisms around risk, controls, evidence, exceptions, and stakeholder accountability. In the staffing plan, this role is explicitly intended to select and operationalize the primary framework, likely starting with NIST CSF 2.0 while mapping outward to SOX ITGC, SOC2 Type2, ISO 27001, NIST AI RMF, ISO 42001 and other requirements for customers, audit, and international needs.

Justification

Echo is reassessing its policy foundation, including formal expectations for information security governance, access control, supplier security, and compliance review. What is needed now is a leader who can turn those policies into a durable governance operating system with clear ownership, evidence discipline, exception management, and measurable accountability.

Hiring Requirements

What you will do

Lead selection, adoption, and operationalization of Echo’s primary cybersecurity framework and related standards structure, with NIST CSF 2.0 as the likely management layer

Build and maintain a control ownership model across Technology, Engineering, Platform, Network, EUC, Asset, Data, Integrations, and Security

Translate existing policies into measurable operating practices, control expectations, evidence requirements, review cadences, and exception workflows

Partner with security architecture, engineering, and operations teams to ensure that governance expectations are practical, technically grounded, and enforceable

Drive enterprise risk and control assessments, including facilitating discussions on control design, effectiveness, and remediation priorities

Build an evidence library structure while defining repeatable collection, review, reuse, and freshness cadences

Improve security questionnaire workflows through standardized responses, evidence reuse, service-level expectations, and clearer ownership

Coordinate third-party security intake and help define tiering, minimum security requirements, documentation expectations, and escalation paths

Partner with Internal Audit and business stakeholders on readiness efforts, compliance reviews, and operational audit support

Track policy exceptions, control gaps, remediation commitments, and overdue actions through closure, including clear owners and time bounds

Perform User Access Reviews compliant to SOX ITGC and SOC2/ISO27001

Provide security governance input on supplier security requirements, contractual obligations, and ongoing review expectations

Produce reporting for leadership on framework maturity, control ownership, policy currency, evidence readiness, exception status, and risk trends

Lead the evolution to and support of continuous compliance capabilities to improve control visibility, evidence freshness, and audit readiness

Manage and evolve the organization’s trust center, including published security documentation, customer-facing assurance materials, and the processes that keep content current and supportable

What success looks like

In the first 60 to 90 days, this role is expected to produce a framework decision package, define the control ownership model, stand up an evidence library structure, improve questionnaire operations, and establish practical workflows for exceptions and third-party intake. Over 12 months, success means framework adoption becomes measurable, control ownership is visible, evidence is reusable, customer and audit due diligence become less reactive, and policy exceptions and control gaps are actively managed.

What you bring

5+ years in cybersecurity GRC, security risk, audit readiness, compliance operations, or related functions, with clear experience building or maturing governance operating models

2+ years of GRC experience in a public company.

Experience with SOX ITGC controls.

Understanding of regulatory and SEC requirements for a public company.

Strong experience operationalizing NIST CSF and translating controls across frameworks such as ISO 27001, SOX, SOC 2, or similar frameworks

Experience building or maturing security governance programs in complex enterprise environments with multiple technical stakeholders

Experience with risk assessments, control design reviews, exception management, and remediation tracking

Strong understanding of third-party risk, supplier security reviews, security questionnaires, and governance workflows that scale beyond one-off reviews

Experience partnering with technical teams to influence architecture, engineering, and operations outcomes in a practical, technically credible way

Ability to turn policy and framework language into concrete operating practices, ownership expectations, and measurable evidence

Strong writing, stakeholder management, and executive communication skills

Preferred qualifications

GRC experience with a public company for SEC and regulatory reporting requirements, i.e. 10K, 8K.

Experience supporting SOC 2, ISO 27001, CTPAT, SOX or similar audit/readiness efforts

Experience with evidence management, control testing, internal audit coordination, or related assurance processes

Experience with automated continuous compliance platforms, including evidence automation, control monitoring, and audit readiness workflows

Experience managing a trust center or similar customer assurance portal and keeping security documentation current and reusable

Familiarity with enterprise technology environments spanning cloud, identity, endpoint, network, and application security domains.

Knowledge of AI governance frameworks, e.g, NIST AI RMF, and ISO 42001.
