Buyer implication: distinguish ownership from execution. Cboe explicitly described a platform-ownership role that did not require hands-on software development, while Huntington sought development and production-support capability. Our recommendation is to decide who sets priorities, who builds changes and who accepts them before deciding whether those duties require separate hires. (careers.cboe.com)

Who operates assessments, controls and evidence workflows?

Employer and advertised role Location and evidence status Published compensation Responsibilities relevant to buyers Desk interpretation
Stripe — Security GRC Program Manager, Third Party Risk US remote. Page available, job 8241288 $131,200–$196,800 base; other rewards may apply Supplier assessments, assurance-document review, remediation, risk acceptance and operational reporting; records decisions in Zip and Aravo A strong signal of assessment capacity and process improvement, but weak evidence of a new platform purchase. (stripe.com)
Pendo — Sr. GRC Engineer Raleigh office. Page available, job 8822007002 $133,400–$160,000 advertised annual range Compliance-programme ownership, AI-assisted evidence and testing workflows, risk prioritisation and incident-response leadership “GRC engineer” can describe a broad security role; do not assume it means a dedicated connector developer. (job-boards.greenhouse.io)
Headway — Senior Governance, Risk, Compliance Analyst San Francisco, New York or Seattle; hybrid. Indexed primary $161,600–$202,000 base; possible equity Establish the GRC function; use modern tooling and evidence automation; experience with platforms such as Vanta, Drata or OneTrust A function-building mandate is a stronger readiness signal than routine administration, but does not establish a selected vendor. (jobs.ashbyhq.com)
HUB International — Senior Analyst, Internal Controls & SOX Chicago. Secondary archive: removed 24 July 2026 $90,000–$110,000 salary IT controls, SOX scoping and testing, remediation and Workiva system administration Platform administration may be embedded in a controls role rather than advertised as separate headcount. (builtinchicago.org)

The HUB example is particularly useful for finance and audit sponsors: an analyst title can conceal an additional system-administration responsibility. Our recommendation is to make that allocation explicit, with time for access reviews, configuration, support and release testing rather than treating administration as incidental work.
