Who are we?

Smarsh empowers its customers to manage risk and unleash intelligence in their digital communications. Our growing community of over 6500 organizations in regulated industries counts on Smarsh every day to help them spot compliance, legal or reputational risks in 80+ communication channels before those risks become regulatory fines or headlines.  Relentless innovation has fueled our journey to consistent leadership recognition from analysts like Gartner and Forrester, and our sustained, aggressive growth has landed Smarsh in the annual Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing American companies since 2008.

Smarsh is a global leader in digital communications capture, archiving, and oversight. Our Governance, Risk, and Compliance function is built to scale through systems, automation, and engineering-driven control frameworks.

This role focuses on building and operating the systems that make governance real in a production environment. You will work at the intersection of Security, Engineering, and GRC to design, implement, and validate controls as part of normal system operation rather than after-the-fact compliance activities.

You will be responsible for developing control validation workflows, improving evidence automation, and ensuring strong alignment between policy intent and system behavior. The role requires strong systems thinking and the ability to translate compliance requirements into practical, testable implementations.
