Who we are
The GRC team at Playlist owns governance, risk, third-party risk, and compliance across a portfolio that spans Mindbody, ClassPass, Booker, Kite, and EGYM, with more brands coming as the company grows. We operate without a playbook, building programs, frameworks, and control architecture in an environment that's complex, not just big. The team works closely with Engineering, Legal, Finance, and product teams to make compliance real rather than ceremonial. If you want to do meaningful work on hard problems with people who take both rigor and pragmatism seriously, we'd love to meet you.
Your role
As a Senior GRC Engineer, you'll own the technical spine of how Playlist manages its control environment. That means designing the architecture that lets the team work across multiple compliance frameworks without duplicating effort at every audit, and making sure control design, evidence requirements, and implementation keep pace with regulatory change and business growth.
You'll be expected to act as a technical leader who can help mature our governance, risk, compliance, in a way that is durable, measurable, and embedded into how our systems operate day to day. Your time will center on two related workstreams. The first is building and maintaining Playlist's Master Control List, a live control architecture mapped across PCI DSS, SOC 1 Type II, ISO 27001, HITRUST, and NIST CSF/800-53 that teams can use and navigate. The second is managing the full lifecycle of controls and evidence requirements as new standards are adopted, updated, or expanded to cover newly acquired brands.
You will
Design and build framework crosswalks and control mappings across PCI DSS, SOC 1 Type II, ISO 27001, HITRUST, and NIST CSF/800-53, using languages such as OSCAL as the translation layer to preserve framework-specific requirements while reducing duplicate audit burden
Own the Master Control List end-to-end, including control nomenclature, relational database architecture, evidence linkages, and the operational model for ongoing maintenance across Playlist's multi-brand footprint
Manage the full lifecycle of controls, evidence requirements, and implementation as new standards are adopted, requirements change, or acquired entities are brought into scope
Drive evidence automation in GRC tooling, building collection workflows that scale without turning every audit season into a manual sprint
Partner with Security Engineering, Legal, and Finance to validate that control design reflects how the business operates, translating compliance requirements into implementation guidance that engineering teams can act on
Design, build and maintain AI-powered GRC tooling, multi-agent pipelines for risk quantification, evidence automation, vendor risk assessment, and compliance monitoring using cloud native tools and APIs, so the team's analytical and operational capacity scales without scaling headcount
Identify rationalization opportunities across frameworks, so adding a new standard to the portfolio means incremental work, not starting from scratch
