About the role

The GRC Integration Specialist focuses on designing, implementing, and maintaining secure, reliable integrations between Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) platforms and enterprise systems. This role serves as a technical specialist supporting GRC modernization and migration initiatives, ensuring data integrity, interoperability, and alignment with federal security mandates, government policies, and organizational risk management practices. The specialist is responsible for developing and operating automated integrations, supporting reporting and analytics, and ensuring that integrated GRC data effectively supports compliance, audit, and authorization activities.

What you'll do

• Design, build, test, and maintain secure integrations between GRC platforms and enterprise tools such as asset management systems, SIEMs, cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), and other security and IT systems.
• Develop and operate automated, bi-directional APIs or data exchange mechanisms to synchronize data between multiple GRC systems during migrations or coexistence periods.
• Support GRC system deployments across production and non-production environments by implementing configuration baselines, integration standards, and controlled release processes.
• Implement and maintain least-privilege access for integrated services and APIs, including service accounts, RBAC, and SSO integration with approved identity providers.
• Define and enforce data quality, validation, lineage, and synchronization rules to ensure accuracy and consistency of integrated GRC data.
• Implement logging, monitoring, and evidence collection for integrations to support audits, compliance reviews, and records management requirements.
• Develop and support custom reporting, dashboards, and data feeds that translate integrated GRC data into actionable insights for compliance teams, system owners, and leadership.
• Assist with the creation and maintenance of standardized GRC documentation templates and workflows (e.g., SSPs, POA&Ms, risk acceptance requests, and questionnaires) as they relate to integrated data sources.
• Maintain technical documentation, runbooks, SOPs, and integration guides to ensure integrations remain current with GRC platform and enterprise system changes.

Qualifications

• Minimum five (5)+ years of experience with listed tasks
• Bachelor’s degree

• Experience designing and supporting integrations for GRC platforms within federal or highly regulated environments.
• Hands-on experience developing APIs, data pipelines, or automated interfaces to exchange data between GRC systems and other enterprise security or IT tools.
• Experience supporting GRC system migrations or data transformations, including mapping control, risk, and assessment data between platforms.
• Working knowledge of cloud-native services and tools within AWS, Azure, and/or GCP used to support security, compliance, and data integration use cases.
• Experience supporting cybersecurity compliance and RMF authorization activities, including the use of integrated data to support control implementation, assessment, and continuous monitoring.
• Knowledge of NIST Risk Management Framework (RMF), NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5, FISMA, and related federal standards.
• Experience supporting internal reviews and audits by providing traceable, auditable integration configurations and automated evidence.
• Familiarity with enterprise GRC solutions such as CSAM, RegScale, or equivalent platforms.
• Strong documentation, collaboration, and customer service skills, with the ability to work effectively with engineers, security teams, and compliance stakeholders.
• Background in systems engineering, cloud engineering, or application development is preferred.
