Additional Information

Echo is seeking a Cybersecurity GRC Program Analyst to build the operating system for security governance, risk, controls, evidence, and exceptions across the enterprise. This is a hands-on role for someone who can select and drive adoption of a primary cybersecurity framework, build the control ownership model, build & improve evidence operations, accelerate questionnaire throughput, and create practical governance mechanisms that work with real engineering and business teams. Own the automated CCM platform. This role is not limited to policy writing or audit coordination. It is intended to make security governance real and measurable across the enterprise by building practical operating mechanisms around risk, controls, evidence, exceptions, and stakeholder accountability. In the staffing plan, this role is explicitly intended to select and operationalize the primary framework, likely starting with NIST CSF 2.0 while mapping outward to SOX ITGC, SOC2 Type2, ISO 27001 , NIST AI RMF, ISO 42001 and other requirements for customer s , audit, and international needs. Justification Echo is reassessing its policy foundation, including formal expectations for information security governance, access control, supplier security, and compliance review. What is needed now is a leader who can turn those policies into a durable governance operating system with clear ownership, evidence discipline, exception management, and measurable accountability.
