## Job description

Backed by leading Silicon Valley investors, Peregrine helps public safety organizations, state and local and governments, federal agencies, and private-sector institutions address society’s challenges with unprecedented speed and accuracy. Our AI-enabled platform turns siloed and disconnected data into operational intelligence — instantly surfacing mission-critical information to empower better, faster decisions that improve outcomes at every touchpoint. Today Peregrine supports hundreds of customers across 30+ states and two countries, serving more than 125 million people — and we’re amplifying our impact as we expand into the enterprise and internationally.

## The Role

We’re looking for a Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) Analyst to help strengthen and scale our security and compliance program. In this role, you’ll support developing and maintaining frameworks that ensure our organization meets key regulatory, contractual, and operational standards across data protection, privacy, and security.

You’ll work closely with engineering, product, and leadership teams to maintain compliance with frameworks like SOC 2, CJIS, HIPAA, ISO 27001, GDPR, NIST 800-53, and FedRAMP as our business expands across new markets and government sectors. This position is ideal for someone who’s detail-oriented, collaborative, and excited to build structured compliance practices that make a real impact on security and trust.

## What You’ll Do

- Support the implementation, tracking, and continuous improvement of compliance frameworks (SOC 2, CJIS, HIPAA, ISO 27001, GDPR, FedRAMP, NIST 800-53).
- Manage and organize compliance documentation, internal audits, and evidence collection for both internal and external stakeholders.
- Collaborate with internal teams to update policies, procedures, and controls related to data protection, access management, and incident response.
- Maintain strong awareness of security best practices in cloud environments - particularly AWS - including services like GuardDuty, SecurityHub, Amazon Inspector, and AWS Config.
- Use compliance management tools such as Vanta, Drata, SecureFrame, or HyperProof to streamline reporting and evidence collection.
- Partner with technical teams to ensure identity and access management (IAM), MFA, and least-privilege principles are applied correctly.
- Contribute to audit readiness and help respond to customer and vendor compliance inquiries.
- Be based in one of our hubs, with a 4-day-per-week in-office requirement.

## About You

- Experience: 7-10 years of experience in information security, compliance, or risk management within regulated industries (e.g., healthcare, finance or government).
- Framework Familiarity: Working knowledge of SOC 2, HIPAA, CJIS, FedRAMP, ISO 27001, NIST 800-53, or similar frameworks.
- Technical Knowledge: Understanding of cloud-native SaaS environments, microservices, VPCs/VPNs, and identity management concepts such as RBAC and MFA.
- Detail-Oriented: You thrive on structure, accuracy, and organization - especially when managing documentation and multiple compliance tasks.
- Collaborative & Curious: You enjoy learning from others, contributing to shared goals, and improving processes along the way.
- Clear Communicator: You can translate complex security concepts into simple, actionable language for different audiences.

## Preferred Certifications

- Governance & Compliance: CGRC, CISSP, CISA, CIPP/US, HCISPP, CompTIA Security+.
- Cloud Security: CCSP, CCSK, AWS Security – Specialty, AWS Solutions Architect – Associate, or CompTIA Cloud+.

Bonus Points

- Experience working with public safety, justice, or government agencies, or other highly regulated data environments.
- Familiarity with CJIS, SOC-2 or overlapping control frameworks.
- Passion for building scalable, user-friendly compliance systems in a fast-growing organization.
