This individual will play a key role in supporting continuous monitoring efforts tied to FedRAMP High. While prior FedRAMP experience is strongly preferred, it’s not required; we’re looking for someone with curiosity, initiative, and a desire to grow in this space.
This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys the intersection of technical systems and risk management, and who’s motivated by process improvement, automation, and collaborative problem-solving. You’ll work cross-functionally with teams like DevOps, Engineering, Privacy, and IT, and partner closely with auditors and external stakeholders. Your work will directly support audit readiness, vulnerability tracking, and the evolution of a proactive, efficient compliance program.

- Collaborate with Engineering, DevOps, IT, and Privacy to collect data, verify controls, and support audit readiness
- Answer auditor and federal agency questions by compiling and submitting relevant documentation
- Identify manual or repetitive processes and propose automation opportunities (scripts, tools, templates, etc.)
- Conduct internal access reviews, policy checks, and other posture assessments across systems
- Help build scalable documentation, workflows, and templates to reduce audit fatigue
- Contribute to security roadmap planning by identifying gaps or inefficiencies in current processes
- Stay current on security trends and evolving standards relevant to federal and commercial compliance
REQUIREMENTS
- 4+ years of experience in security, GRC, or a related technical/compliance role
- Must be eligible to obtain and maintain a U.S. government security clearance to support work across both commercial and federal programs
- Familiarity with compliance frameworks like SOC 2, HIPAA, HITRUST, PCI, or ISO 27001 (FedRAMP preferred)
- Experience reviewing or managing vulnerability scans (e.g., Wazuh, Tenable) and related ticketing
- Proficiency in Microsoft tools (Excel, SharePoint, Word); comfortable managing and navigating documentation
- Excellent attention to detail, systems thinking, and ability to manage multiple data streams
- Strong communication and collaboration skills, especially across technical and non-technical teams
BONUS
- Exposure to scripting or automation tools (e.g., Excel macros, PowerAutomate)
- Experience using GRC platforms like Drata, HyperProof, or similar
- Threat hunting or familiarity with tools like CrowdStrike, Splunk, or ElasticSearch
OUR APPROACH TO WORK LOCATION
Artera has hybrid office locations in Santa Barbara, CA, and Philadelphia (Wayne), PA, where team members typically come in three days a week. Specific frequency can vary depending on your team's needs, manager expectations and/or role responsibilities.
In addition to our U.S. office locations, we are intentionally building geographically concentrated teams in several key metropolitan areas, which we call our “Hiring Hubs.” We are currently hiring remote candidates located within the following hiring hubs:
- Boston Metro Area, MA
- Chicago Metro Area, IL
- Denver Metro Area, CO
- Kansas City Metro Area (KS/MO)
- Los Angeles Metro Area, CA
- San Francisco / Bay Area, CA
- Seattle Metro Area, WA
This hub-based model helps us cultivate strong local connections and team cohesion, even in a distributed environment.
To be eligible for employment at Artera, candidates must reside in one of our hybrid office cities or one of the designated hiring hubs. Specific roles may call out location preferences when relevant.
As our hubs grow, we may establish local offices to further enhance in-person connection and collaboration. While there are no current plans in place, should an office open in your area, we anticipate implementing a hybrid model. Any future attendance expectations would be developed thoughtfully, considering factors like typical commute times and access to public transit, to ensure they are fair and practical for the local team.
