Job Description
Principal Compliance Analyst defining and scaling compliance frameworks at HubSpot. Collaborating with engineering and security teams to embed compliance requirements into engineering workflows.
Responsibilities:
- Define and evolve HubSpot’s compliance-by-design methodology, embedding regulatory and internal control requirements directly into engineering and product workflows.
- Build scalable, repeatable control patterns and reference architectures that align with SOC 2, ISO, NIST, GDPR, SOX, and AI governance obligations.
- Translate regulatory language into actionable technical requirements that engineers can adopt early in the design process.
- Partner with Security Compliance Automation and Monitoring team to design and implement automated evidence collection, continuous control monitoring, policy-as-code frameworks, and automated compliance validation in CI/CD.
- Define the technical control properties that automation teams should monitor (e.g., logging configuration, encryption controls, IAM boundaries, data flows, change management).
- Work with platform teams to build compliance logic into developer experience tooling, ensuring compliance checks happen before, during, and after service deployment.
- Design the compliance onboarding lifecycle for new services, products, and internal platforms; clarifying required controls, evidence needs, and architectural expectations.
- Build self-service documentation, templates, tooling, and workflows so engineering teams understand their compliance responsibilities without friction.
- Identify patterns of operational toil and partner with engineering to redesign them into automated, low-lift solutions.
- Partner with stakeholders in cross-functional teams like Engineering, Product, Legal, Finance, Internal Audit, and Enterprise Risk Management to align on responsibilities, processes, and evidence requirements.
- Participate in architecture reviews, service readiness programs, and cross-organizational initiatives that introduce or modify compliance controls.
- Establish metrics and KPIs for control adoption, automated evidence coverage, and compliance readiness.
- Identify systemic gaps across services and platforms and develop long-term architectural solutions to reduce risk.
Requirements:
- 12–15+ years in compliance engineering, cloud governance, secure development, or risk architecture within a large-scale SaaS environment.
- Deep knowledge of compliance standards such as SOX, SOC1, SOC 2, ISO 27001/27701, NIST 800-53, PCI, GDPR, and emerging AI governance frameworks such as ISO 42001.
- Significant experience embedding compliance requirements into SDLC processes, CI/CD pipelines, cloud-native architectures, developer experience tooling, and microservice/service onboarding workflows.
- Strong hands-on understanding of continuous compliance monitoring, automated evidence collection and storage, policy-as-code frameworks, cloud configuration monitoring, event-driven or API-driven control validation.
- Proven success collaborating with Security or Compliance Automation teams to operationalize controls at scale.
- Ability to read, review, and critique architectural diagrams and service designs.
- Familiarity with AWS/GCP/Azure security models, identity governance, data flows, and distributed systems.
- Understanding of AI/ML governance and compliance needs (data lineage, model lifecycle controls, evaluation, provenance, auditability).
Benefits:
- The cash compensation includes base salary, on-target commission for employees in eligible roles, and annual bonus targets under HubSpot’s bonus plan for eligible roles.
- Eligible roles may participate in HubSpot’s equity plan to receive restricted stock units (RSUs).
- Some roles may also be eligible for overtime pay.
