Remote Software Compliance Tester
Introduction to the Role
If you're passionate about safeguarding digital integrity while embracing the freedom of remote work, this opportunity will resonate with you. Picture yourself joining a mission-led team deeply invested in innovation, global compliance, and a user-first software culture. As we continue shaping secure and future-proof products, we're looking for a Remote Software Compliance Tester who brings intellectual curiosity, meticulous attention to detail, and an enthusiasm for uncovering hidden flaws that matter.
This isn't just a technical role—it's a chance to influence the trustworthiness of the digital tools people rely on every day. Our projects are dynamic, our pace is fast, and your contribution will directly shape our quality assurance roadmap. We believe in empowering team members to challenge conventions and champion more innovative ways to test, audit, and validate.
Position Overview
In this full-time, remote position, you'll be a vital contributor in validating software compliance across frameworks, including GDPR, HIPAA, SOC 2, and internal security standards. You'll collaborate cross-functionally with cybersecurity engineers, product compliance specialists, and platform teams to ensure every release meets rigorous governance.
Your work will protect sensitive data, elevate customer confidence, and ensure that software updates roll out with security and compliance baked in, not tacked on.
