Software Engineer, Risk Management

About Us

Hyperproof is on a mission to transform the Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) world with a powerful new software platform. With Hyperproof, companies can save time and money while also operating their programs at a much higher level of effectiveness and accountability. We envision a world where organizations we depend on are truly trustworthy - and Hyperproof is the platform that will get them there.

We have a great team and culture - picture yourself in a highly collaborative startup environment where you can make a real impact on something truly important. It's an exciting time to be at Hyperproof; we raised our Series B round in 2023, validating our teamwork and company vision, and we continue to grow rapidly.

As we continue to grow, we are seeking a talented Software Engineer to join our Risk Management team and help build first-party risk management features that help our customers identify, assess, and mitigate organizational risk.

Who You Are

You are a full-stack engineer with 3-5 years of experience who cares about building software that is correct, reliable, and genuinely useful. You thrive working across the stack - comfortable designing APIs in the morning and refining React components in the afternoon. You take pride in writing code that is well-tested and maintainable, and you understand that in a compliance domain, data integrity is not optional.

You are excited by the challenge of translating complex domain logic - risk scoring, control testing, framework alignment - into clean, intuitive product experiences. You are comfortable asking questions, engaging in design discussions, and owning features end-to-end. You work well in a collaborative, async-first environment.

What You Will Do

As a Software Engineer on the Risk Management team, your responsibilities will include:

• Design, build, and ship first-party risk management features including risk register, inherent and residual risk scoring, and risk lifecycle workflows.
• Develop and extend control testing and monitoring capabilities - automated evidence checks, test cadence scheduling, and pass/fail logic tied to compliance outcomes.
• Build integrations with compliance frameworks including SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST CSF, and others - enabling customers to map their controls and risks to the standards that matter to them.
• Collaborate with product managers and designers to translate compliance domain requirements into reliable, intuitive product experiences.
• Write backend services and APIs in C# (.NET), Node.js, and/or Python that are performant, well-documented, and testable.
• Build and maintain React/TypeScript front-end components that surface complex risk data in clean, actionable dashboards.
• Participate in design reviews and code reviews, contributing to engineering quality across the team.
• Work closely with QA to ensure correctness - you understand that in a compliance product, data integrity issues have real consequences for our customers.

What You Will Bring

Required:

• 3-5 years of software engineering experience in a product-focused company.
• Strong proficiency in React and TypeScript for front-end development.
• Experience with at least one of Java Springboot, Node.js, or Python for back-end API development.
• Comfort working across the full stack - you can own a feature from data model to UI.
• Familiarity with relational databases (PostgreSQL preferred) and writing efficient, well-structured queries.
• Solid understanding of REST API design principles and asynchronous patterns.
• A track record of writing well-tested code; you care about test coverage and the long-term cost of technical debt.
• Excellent communication skills; you can engage effectively in async and cross-functional team environments.
• A positive attitude and willingness to learn, adapt, and grow in a dynamic environment.

Preferred:

• Exposure to GRC, compliance, audit, or risk management domains - even as an end user.
• Familiarity with compliance frameworks such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST CSF, or FedRAMP.
• Experience building workflow-heavy or state-machine-driven features.
• Familiarity with risk registers, control frameworks, or evidence management concepts.
• Prior experience in a B2B SaaS environment.
