• Description:

The Compliance team at MongoDB manages the strategy, execution, and maintenance of our global security certifications and regulatory requirements. We ensure that our cloud database products meet the rigorous security standards required by our customers in the most highly regulated industries worldwide.

We act as the primary interface between external auditors and our internal Product, Engineering, and Legal teams. Our goal is to translate complex regulatory requirements into scalable operational processes, maintaining a compliant and audit-ready posture across our diverse portfolio.

The Program Manager / Senior Analyst is a mid-to-senior level individual contributor role responsible for leading high-stakes audits and specialized compliance workstreams. Unlike the Analyst level, this role takes full ownership of complex international frameworks—such as IRAP and ENS High—and manages the relationship with our Financial Services customers during audit deep-dives. You will lead internal audit cadences and perform gap analyses for new market expansions.

• Lead the end-to-end execution of specialized external audits (e.g., ENS High, IRAP, ISO 22301) and coordinate all phases from initial scoping to final certification
• Serve as the lead point of contact for Financial Services customer audits, facilitating meetings, responding to security questionnaires, and defending our control environment to external stakeholders
• Lead internal audit cadences and drive the POA&M tracking process, ensuring technical teams remediate findings within required SLAs
• Map new regulatory requirements to our central control framework, performing gap analyses to identify where existing controls can be leveraged for new certifications
• Conduct NIST CSF or similar maturity assessments to monitor the effectiveness of the Compliance Program and report findings to team leads
• Author and review customer-facing security documentation, ensuring it accurately reflects our technical controls and architectural guardrails

Partner with Engineering and Product leads to implement compliance-by-design, ensuring future product roadmaps align with global regulatory shifts

• 7+ years in GRC, Information Security, or IT Audit, specifically within a high-growth SaaS/Cloud environment
• Deep understanding of cloud security principles (AWS/GCP/Azure) and a proven track record leading technical audits for ISO 27001, SOC 2, or ENS High
• Exceptional ability to lead meetings with external customers and auditors, translating technical complexities into business risk and compliance assurance
• Advanced proficiency in Jira for tracking control performance data and managing high-volume remediation workflows
• Practical experience performing gap analyses and maturity assessments at an enterprise level
• Responsibilities & Expectations
• You are expected to be a subject matter expert who can operate with minimal supervision
• You don't just track tasks; you own the success of the program
• You are expected to navigate complex audit negotiations with external parties and drive internal technical teams toward compliance milestones without disrupting innovation
• Scope & Complexity
• The scope is international and technically diverse. You will manage overlapping audit cycles across different global jurisdictions (e.g., Spain, Australia, US) and complex industry sectors
• You are responsible for identifying how a single technical control can satisfy multiple global regulatory requirements simultaneously
• Authority & Impact
• You have the authority to lead audit engagements and represent MongoDB’s security posture to sophisticated Financial Services customers
• Your impact is direct: by securing and maintaining these certifications, you enable our sales organization to close enterprise-level deals in highly regulated markets
• Expertise
• You will be recognized as an expert in implementing our Common Controls Framework
• You move beyond general compliance to become a specialist in how MongoDB’s architecture satisfies specific, high-bar standards like IRAP and ENS High. You are the go-to for mapping technical evidence to regulatory intent

Leadership in this role is demonstrated through influence and mentorship. While you may not have direct reports, you lead cross-functional project teams through intense audit cycles and mentor junior analysts on audit methodology, documentation standards, and professional communication
