The Experience Location: Bellevue, San Francisco or McLean Salesforce is seeking a Manager of Governance, Risk and Compliance Security Automation to lead the design, deployment, and scaling of compliance automation capabilities within Security. This role combines technical product leadership with hands-on engineering execution, and is built for someone who views regulatory compliance and governance as a systems-engineering challenge rather than a manual checklist. You will own the strategic roadmap for automating compliance workflows across our Common Controls Framework (CCF) control environment and execute on high-impact initiatives while building and leading a team of engineers. Your primary objective is to institutionalize engineering-driven compliance - replacing traditional manual efforts with automated solutions for control execution, audit facilitation, and continuous reporting.

Lead a specialized team of compliance engineers and product specialists, establishing technical standards and an engineering culture to modernize controls within the Security environment. Architect and deploy an end-to-end agentic ecosystem to autonomously manage the compliance lifecycle, transitioning from manual evidence collection to automated execution and audit facilitation. Collaborate with audit partners, governance, and engineering teams to ensure automation solutions meet rigorous compliance standards, and own cross-functional integrations that normalize compliance data across enterprise domains. You're Our Person If...

You have a proven ability to design enterprise-level automation tools and API integrations, with proficiency in Apex and/or Java, Salesforce Object Query Language (SOQL), SQL, and Python. You have extensive experience evaluating security control effectiveness and translating complex data into technical requirements to build automated solutions that satisfy Payment Card Industry (PCI), and Service Organization Control 2 (SOC 2) audit scrutiny. You have a track record of delivering real-time dashboards and automated reporting that transform raw system data into an executive-level source of truth for continuous risk oversight. Even Better If... You have experience with the Salesforce platform, including Salesforce Platform development or similar compliance automation systems. You have familiarity with agentic frameworks to automate complex workflows, synthesize unstructured data, and resolve integration discrepancies between disparate systems. You have experience fine-tuning or prompting Large Language Models (LLMs) to automate audit inquiry responses, evidence mapping, or natural language reporting. You hold advanced technical or security certifications such as Salesforce Certified Technical Architect (CTA), Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP), or Certified Information Security Manager (CISM).
