As a SecOps Lead specializing in FedRAMP program management and broader security practices, you will be at the forefront of Loop's efforts to maintain and enhance our security posture, ensuring not only compliance with the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) guidelines but also instituting comprehensive security measures across all aspects of our operations. This role requires an extensive understanding of cloud security frameworks, risk management, continuous monitoring strategies, and a holistic view of organizational security practices.

  • Coordinate with internal teams and external stakeholders, including cloud service providers, third-party assessors, and government agencies, to ensure successful FedRAMP certifications, continuous compliance, and overall security integrity.
  • Oversee the development and implementation of security policies, procedures, and controls as required for FedRAMP, other regulatory frameworks, and our internal security benchmarks.
  • Lead security risk assessments and audits across the organization, identifying vulnerabilities and implementing remediation strategies to mitigate risks, beyond those identified in the FedRAMP guidelines.
  • Manage continuous monitoring activities and extend these practices to cover all aspects of our organization's security, ensuring ongoing compliance with FedRAMP, other security requirements, and best practices.
  • Drive security awareness and training programs across the organization to ensure all team members understand and comply with security policies and procedures, fostering a culture of security mindfulness.
  • Stay abreast of emerging security threats, technologies, and best practices, adapting our security stance as necessary to protect organizational assets, data, and ensure a robust defense against cyber threats.


Requirements:

  • At least 10 years of information security experience, with a focus on cloud security, compliance, and a comprehensive understanding of organizational security practices.
  • Proven experience in implementing and managing FedRAMP authorization processes, maintaining FedRAMP compliance, and developing broad security practices across an organization.
  • Familiarity with a wide range of compliance frameworks (e.g., SOC 2, ISO 27001) and the ability to integrate various standards into a cohesive security strategy.
  • Professional certifications such as CISSP (Certified Information Systems Security Professional), CISM (Certified Information Security Manager), and other relevant certifications reflecting a broad security expertise are strongly preferred.
  • Excellent team management skills, with the ability to motivate and guide a team towards achieving comprehensive compliance and security objectives.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to manage complex projects, multi-task effectively, and develop innovative security solutions.
