io. At Gong, you will join a company built on innovative products, ambitious goals, and passionate people. We are shaping the future of revenue intelligence and we want people who are excited to build what comes next.

You will work with a team that dreams big, moves fast, and cares deeply about the craft and about each other. Here, transparency and trust are core to how we operate, and every person has the opportunity to make a visible impact. If you want to grow, stretch, and do work that truly matters, Gong is the place to do the best work of your career.

This is a high-visibility, high-impact role at the center of Gong’s security and compliance story. As our Senior GRC Security Lead, you will be the architect of foundational programs we are building — Gong’s first-ever Common Controls Framework, standing up a formal risk process and register, implementing a GRC tooling ecosystem, and owning the full policy, standards, and exceptions management lifecycle. This is not a role for someone looking to inherit a mature program.

It’s a role for a builder — someone who thrives in ambiguity, operates with urgency, and finds energy in creating order from complexity. You will work directly with Legal, Sales, Engineering, Customer Audit teams, and executive stakeholders, and your fingerprints will be visible across everything Gong builds for compliance and trust for years to come.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Design and implement Gong’s Common Controls Framework, mapping controls across SOC 2, ISO 27001, 27017, 27701, 27018, HIPAA, PCI, and other applicable frameworks.

Create and maintain risk treatment plans in partnership with risk owners across the business, tracking remediation milestones and escalating blockers. Develop executive-level risk reporting cadences and dashboards for the Head of GRC and senior leadership.
