[Hiring] Information Security Analyst/Compliance Lead @Nexus Technologies LLC

Role Description

A fast-growing healthcare services company is undergoing its first SOC 2 audit and building its information security program from the ground up. The organization operates in a HIPAA-compliant, high-trust environment and is now taking on enterprise clients who require formal compliance credentials.

We are placing one Security Analyst / Compliance Lead as a dedicated, embedded resource. This person will function as an extension of the internal team — owning day-to-day security operations and SOC 2 evidence collection. This is a hybrid role, not a senior architect or vCISO seat, and it does not involve facing the auditor directly.

What You Will Do

• Upload and manage security policies within a leading compliance automation platform
• Gather, organize, and upload evidence for SOC 2 controls across the defined audit scope
• Map evidence to applicable Trust Service Criteria; identify and flag gaps
• Support remediation efforts and compensating controls as audit findings surface
• Monitor and triage EDR alerts; perform initial investigations on security incidents
• Execute incident response procedures in accordance with the client's IR plan
• Handle ad hoc security and compliance tasks as directed by client leadership
• Support the team in establishing repeatable security processes as the program matures

Qualifications

• Hands-on experience with SOC 2 compliance — familiarity with Trust Service Criteria, evidence collection, and control mapping
• Proficiency with Vanta or a comparable GRC / compliance automation platform
• Working knowledge of CrowdStrike or comparable EDR platforms for alert triage and basic incident response
• Understanding of HIPAA compliance requirements and high-trust environments
• Ability to translate technical security controls into audit-ready documentation
• Strong organizational skills — able to independently manage a large volume of evidence across multiple control areas
• Available to start mid-July 2026 and commit through December 31, 2026
• U.S.-based, available to work fully remote

Preferred Qualifications

• Prior experience in a healthcare or health services organization
• Familiarity with third-party audit firms and evidence submission processes
• Exposure to additional frameworks such as ISO 27001, NIST RMF, GDPR, or PCI DSS
• Experience with Azure environments or cloud-hosted infrastructure
• Background in GRC (Governance, Risk, and Compliance) in addition to hands-on security operations

What This Role Is Not

• Not a senior security architect or vCISO seat — this is a mid-level, hybrid role
• Not the primary interface with the auditor — client leadership owns that relationship
• Not initially scoped for vulnerability management or third-party risk — those may be added as the engagement grows
