Data Protection Advisor – Aptible

Job Description:

Who We Are

Our mission is to build trust on the internet. We do this by empowering innovative teams to build strong data protection programs and become trustworthy custodians of sensitive data.

What We Believe

We believe building trust is essential to unleashing the internet’s transformative potential: A global internet based on strong trust can build communities, reshape economies, and improve the lives of billions around the world. We are starting with security and privacy. Data, such as personal data, is increasingly sensitive and risky to handle.

Imagine:

• What if data breaches on the internet weren’t common?
• What if every team knew how good they were at security before a breach?
• What if every team knew how much time, money, and people they should invest in security?
• What if every engineering team had access to great DevOps security?

What We Prioritize

Customer Empowerment Over Customer Happiness

We think of customer success in terms of empowerment and growth through self-improvement, which makes it easy to have a deep passion and investment in that success. We want to see our customers grow into mature teams that are excellent at protecting data. This is true across Aptible, not just product and support: In our marketing, we’re more likely to give away knowledge than swag. In sales, we always try to answer substantive questions and provide a roadmap for prospects, even if they don’t buy.

Experience and Opinion Over Flexibility

Empowerment and growth as self-improvement also deeply inform how we approach product design and support. We differentiate on legal and technical experience, and bake this knowledge into our products. Aptible is not a black box. Customers use us to offload challenging problems, but they also constantly learn how to better approach these problems as a result of using our software and services.

Leverage Over Effort

As a company, we aim for breadth, impact on a large scale. We want to help thousands of teams, which demands accessibility and simplification without sacrificing impact. With Gridiron, you can launch an enterprise-grade compliance program without a CISO or formal compliance experience. With Enclave, you get the benefits of highly-available, fault-tolerant infrastructure without a DevOps team. For every ounce of effort our customers put into Aptible, we give them pounds of value back, for as long as our relationship lasts.

Our Products

Gridiron is like the missing QuickBooks + TurboTax for information security audits. It helps teams design and run security management programs that meet and exceed requirements like HIPAA, SOC 2, and ISO 27001. Customers use it to build trust with their own customers and partners, and pass audits. Enclave is a container orchestration platform for deploying audit-ready apps and databases that automatically implements the security controls customers need to achieve regulatory compliance and pass audits.

Job Responsibilities:

• You’ll establish relationships with CEOs, COOs, CTOs and other key customer stakeholders, making sure they feel supported as they onboard and get acquainted with Aptible.
• You’ll serve as a teacher to our customers, explaining complicated concepts in accessible terms, and developing an external knowledge base to educate and build our community.
• You’ll collaborate with our Customer Success Managers to guide customers throughout their time with Aptible and actively finding ways to help them advance their goals.
• You’ll serve as the voice of our customers, delivering subject matter insights and constructive feedback to our Product Team to inform the development of Gridiron.

Job Requirements:

• Security Standards & Data Privacy Expertise: You’re a subject matter expert with a track record of success in leading an internal audit program (ISO 27001, SOC 2, HITRUST), as well as an internal regulatory compliance program (HIPAA, GDPR). Bonus: You also have a CIPP/E or CISSP Certification.
• Client Services Skills: You’re committed to delivering service excellence in every client interaction. You have experience leading and developing work product for external clients.
• Verbal and Written Communication Skills: You have experience explaining complicated concepts and drafting clear communications that demonstrate attention to detail. Experience communicating with Senior Leaders is helpful, but not required.
• Project Management Skills: You have experience running several projects at once in a dynamic environment. You’re comfortable working collaboratively with internal and external clients, taking initiative to move projects forward and deliver results on time.
• Problem Solving Skills: You have experience analyzing root causes and identifying creative solutions to complex business problems we may not have encountered before.
• Legal Experience (Not Required): You’re an an attorney with experience in security, privacy, or compliance. You have a track record of success in helping clients understand broad regulations or requirements, and applying them to clients’ specific situations.

What We Value: And hope you’ll embrace at Aptible, too.

• Commitment to the Team: We are building an exceptional team by finding exceptional people that care deeply about building exceptional teams, wherever they are.
• Commitment to Each Other: We commit to less, which means we’re able to deliver more for our colleagues and customers.
• Commitment to the Mission: We love winning, but most of all, we value getting back up and getting better at what we do. We respect grit.
• Growth Over Perfection: We help each other improve. When we give feedback, we make each other feel big, not small. This helps us take reasonable risks, which helps us make decisions and learn quickly. We fail often and early, and learn from it.
• Teaching as Learning: We believe that teaching is the best way to learn, and make time to share information openly.
• Constructiveness Over Commiseration: We seek to improve through self-reflection and hard work. We prefer to offer solutions to problems.
• Asking Why: We ask “why?” a lot in order to understand root causes. Asking why helps us cultivate focus and make high-quality decisions quickly.
