About the Role

Scale Computing is hiring a Director of Security and Compliance to own the company's security and compliance program end to end. This leader sets the objectives for the Compliance and Security Operations function, owns security risk on behalf of the executive team, and is accountable for the company's PCI-DSS, SOC 2, and ISO 27001 posture.

Responsibilities

  • Own the security and compliance strategy, and set the annual and quarterly objectives the Compliance and Security Operations team executes against.
  • Own the compliance program for PCI-DSS, SOC 2, and ISO 27001 across Scale Computing and managed-compliance customers: scope definition, control framework, auditor and QSA relationships, audit outcomes, and remediation accountability.
  • Define the shared-responsibility model between Scale Computing and its managed-service customers, and ensure contracts, statements of work, and customer-facing compliance artifacts accurately reflect it.
  • Own the enterprise security risk register: identification, rating, treatment decisions, and risk acceptance escalated to the executive team.
  • Own security policy, standards, and the exception process, and ensure policies match how the company actually operates.
  • Own incident response readiness and serve as the accountable executive during security incidents, including customer, regulatory, and legal notification decisions in partnership with Legal.
  • Own third-party and vendor risk management, including security review of new vendors, SaaS tools, and acquisitions.
  • Own customer security assurance: security questionnaires, trust documentation, and security participation in sales cycles and customer audits.
  • Own AI governance for security and compliance: acceptable-use policy, data-handling boundaries, and risk assessment of AI tools and AI-enabled product features.
  • Report security and compliance posture to the executive team and board using measures produced from the tooling rather than narrative status.
  • Develop the security and compliance leadership bench, maintaining a documented development plan for direct reports and a succession plan for the function.

Requirements

  • 10+ years in information security, including 5+ years leading security or compliance teams.
  • Demonstrated knowledge of PCI-DSS, SOC 2, or ISO 27001.
  • Demonstrated risk management practice: maintaining a risk register, making and documenting treatment decisions, and presenting risk to executives.
  • Incident response leadership, including experience as the accountable lead during a material security incident.
  • Working use of AI tooling in a leadership context, and a defensible position on its risks.
  • People-leadership fundamentals: development planning, performance management, hiring, and mentorship of managers.
  • Executive presence and clear written and verbal communication with technical teams, executives, customers, and auditors.
