Founded by the team behind PyTorch and backed by AMD, Atreides, Benchmark Capital, Index Ventures, Lightspeed, NVIDIA, Sequoia Capital, and TCV, Fireworks powers production AI with hundreds of state-of-the-art open models across text, image, embedding, audio, and multimodal workloads. Today, Fireworks is a Series D company valued at $17.5 billion, bringing together an ambitious, collaborative team that's building the future of enterprise AI.\nAbout the role\nWe're looking for a GRC Specialist to join our security and compliance team. You'll help us mature our compliance program across frameworks like SOC 2, HIPAA, ISO 27001, ISO 27701, ISO 42001, and GDPR - supporting audits, managing risk, and partnering with engineering and operations teams to keep our controls effective as we scale. From day one you'll own operational cornerstones of our program, including user access reviews, our security awareness program through the Adaptive Security platform, and third-party risk management, with room to grow into broader audit and program leadership over time. This is a great fit for someone with a foundation in security or compliance who's ready to take ownership of meaningful work in a fast-moving SaaS environment.\nWhat you'll do\nOwn day-to-day GRC operations - including (but not limited to) user access reviews and certifications, security awareness and phishing/deepfake simulation facilitation, JML tracking, and triage and enforcement of policy and control exceptions.\n\nRun the risk management program - perform annual and ad-hoc risk assessments, maintain the risk register, partner with risk owners on remediation, and track issues through to closure.\n\nManage third-party risk - run vendor and subprocessor risk assessments, conduct ongoing monitoring, and track remediation across our critical vendors.\n\nDesign and execute targeted internal audits to test control effectiveness, and facilitate or support external audit cycles by coordinating evidence, control owners, and remediation.\n\nOwn continuous control monitoring and evidence automation - administer our GRC platform, keep automated control tests and evidence healthy, and maintain audit readiness year-round rather than point-in-time.\n\nBuild and foster relationships with cross-functional partners across engineering, IT, operations, legal, and sales - meeting teams where they are rather than gatekeeping.\n\nPartner with control owners to educate them on their control responsibilities, ownership, and expectations; prepare them for audits; and help them operationalize controls rather than treat compliance as a checkbox.\n\nKeep the policy library current - review and update security policies, standards, and procedures so they stay practical and aligned to the frameworks we operate under.\n\nTurn program data into action - translate access review, awareness, and risk findings into insights and metrics that flag high-risk users, teams, or behaviors, report to leadership, and drive targeted interventions.\n\nTake on additional GRC projects as the program evolves; we're a growing team and priorities shift.\n\nHow the role will grow\nAs you build context on our environment and program, you'll take on broader ownership across third-party risk, audit leadership, and program maturity:\nEnd-to-end audit leadership - move from supporting audits to owning them: scoping, auditor coordination, and driving the cycle to completion across frameworks.\n\nProgram and control maturity - lead control improvement and automation initiatives that raise the bar on how efficiently we run the program as we scale.\n\nLeadership and influence - mentor newer team members, represent GRC in cross-functional projects, and help shape the direction of the program.\n\nWhat we're looking for\n5-7 years of experience in GRC, IT audit, information security, or a closely related field\n\nWorking knowledge of major security and privacy frameworks such as SOC 2, ISO 27001/27701/42001, NIST CSF, HIPAA, GDPR, or CCPA\n\nExperience with GRC platforms (Anecdotes, Vanta, Drata, Secureframe, OneTrust, ServiceNow GRC)\n\nExperience running user access reviews and a solid understanding of identity and access management concepts (RBAC, least privilege, segregation of duties, JML processes)\n\nHands-on experience administering a security awareness or phishing simulation platform (Adaptive Security, KnowBe4, Hoxhunt, Proofpoint, or similar)\n\nComfort with cloud environments (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and how SaaS products are built and operated\n\nStrong written communication; you can translate control requirements and security concepts into language engineers, customers, and non-technical employees understand\n\nDetail-oriented and organized, with the ability to juggle multiple audits, campaigns, and deadlines\n\nA collaborative mindset; you enjoy working across teams rather than gatekeeping\n\nWhy Fireworks?\nSolve Hard Problems: Tackle challenges at the forefront of AI infrastructure, from low-latency inference to scalable model serving.\n\nBuild What’s Next: Work with bleeding-edge technology that impacts how businesses and developers harness AI globally.\n\nOwnership & Impact: Join a fast-growing, passionate team where your work directly shapes the future of AI-no bureaucracy, just results.\n\nLearn from the Best: Collaborate with world-class engineers and AI researchers who thrive on curiosity and innovation.\n\nFireworks AI is an equal-opportunity employer.
