About the Role

As the Senior Security Assurance Manager, you will own the strategic governance backbone of Trase's Security and Compliance program, implementing and overseeing the processes, policies, and controls that allow us to operate safely and credibly in highly-regulated markets.

You will define and steward Trase's security policies and procedures, lead internal and external audits, and conduct comprehensive risk assessments across the organization. You will be the primary owner of our SOC 2 and HIPAA programs and champion of our broader GRC functions (e.g., risk management, policy documentation, control design, continuous monitoring, etc.).

This is a player-coach role. You will operate hands-on across contexts and stakeholder groups while building the team, processes, and tooling that allow Trase's governance capabilities to scale alongside the business.

Why This Role Exists

Trase is rapidly solving mission-critical challenges in some of the most highly regulated markets in the world, where customer trust and assurance are non-negotiable. As we grow our global footprint and our compliance landscape evolves, we need a senior leader who can scale our security and compliance posture so that it is always a core tenet of who we are and what we deliver.

This role is an investment in the next chapter of Trase security assurance. It is aimed at maturing our continuous monitoring and control frameworks, sharpening how we manage enterprise risk, and ensuring that our combined security capabilities continue to build trust and unlock net-new opportunities.
