About the team
Salesforce's Common Controls Framework (CCF) program is the foundation of our security governance and compliance program, anchored in Trust, Transparency, and Accountability. We build, operate, and continuously improve a best-in-class, organizationally integrated, business-value-driven security controls management program.
We're hiring an Analyst to support day-to-day CCF operations. In this individual contributor role, you'll bring security, GRC, and operational/product-management expertise, quickly adapting to the program and becoming a trusted advisor to security and compliance stakeholders across the business.
What you'll be doing:
Support the design, maintenance, and evolution of the CCF and its implementation across all Salesforce compliance certification programs
Map common controls to applicable frameworks, standards, and certification requirements, identifying reuse opportunities across programs
Maintain and update controls throughout their lifecycle — descriptions, mappings, applicability, implementation guidance
Support certification programs by analyzing requirements, identifying control coverage, and streamlining assessment processes and timelines
Partner cross-functionally to support CCF adoption and implementation
Research emerging regulations, standards, and certification requirements for potential impact on the CCF
Analyze controls and framework requirements for opportunities to standardize, reuse, and increase efficiency
Support efforts to reduce compliance burden by improving CCF processes, controls, and implementation strategies
Support identification and implementation of compliance automation opportunities
Develop and maintain reporting, metrics, and analyses on CCF adoption, control coverage, and certification readiness
Identify and track control gaps and inconsistencies, escalating to senior team members as needed
Maintain accurate, current CCF documentation and supporting materials
Stay informed on regulatory, standards, and compliance trends, and share relevant updates with the team
As experience grows, take ownership of defined controls, mappings, or workstreams and drive their maintenance and improvement
Use AI and generative-AI tooling responsibly to enhance CCF processes, stakeholder engagement, and data management
What you should have:
3+ years in security governance, GRC, technical writing, program management, or compliance operations at a tech company
Direct security-domain experience (application security, cloud security, IAM, vulnerability management, or GRC-adjacent) — deep enough to read controls, understand the risk they manage, and challenge a draft
Demonstrated ability to write clear, concise standards, policies, or procedures non-security readers can act on
Working knowledge of a major security/privacy framework (SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST CSF, FedRAMP, PCI, HIPAA, EU AI Act, or equivalent)
Comfort running cross-functional review cycles with senior stakeholders (Engineering, Legal, Privacy, Product)
Strong attention to detail — versioning, traceability, review dates, approver signatures
Experience with a GRC platform (Salesforce eGRC, ServiceNow GRC, Archer, OneTrust, LogicGate, or similar)
Excellent written and verbal English communication
Ability to work independently across many parallel workstreams
Highest level of ethics, independence, and professionalism
Nice to have:
Prior experience at a cloud, SaaS, or platform company under multiple concurrent audit regimes
Familiarity with the Salesforce platform, trust model, or AppExchange/partner ecosystem
Exposure to AI/ML governance (model risk, third-party LLM/MCP supply chain, Responsible AI, agentic system controls)
Hands-on experience with Salesforce reporting, SOQL, or admin-level custom object configuration
CISA, CISM, CRISC, ISO 27001 Lead Implementer, or equivalent certification
Experience supporting M&A security due diligence or acquisition integration
Comfort adopting new AI/GenAI tools responsibly ("builder"/Customer-Zero mindset)

Posting Statement
Salesforce is an equal opportunity employer and maintains a policy of non-discrimination with all employees and applicants for employment. What does that mean exactly? It means that at Salesforce, we believe in equality for all. And we believe we can lead the path to equality in part by creating a workplace that’s inclusive, and free from discrimination.

This policy applies to current and prospective employees, no matter where they are in their Salesforce employment journey.
