Company mission

To build a world that’s safer for consumers, more seamless for enterprise, and ripe for advancement.

Role

Who you are

  • If you strongly dislike the manually intensive audit process and are convinced there is a better way, this opportunity is for you
  • 1-2 years of progressive information security experience
  • 1-2 years of experience supporting cloud architecture, design, implementation, operations, and automation in AWS, Azure, or GCP
  • Must be fluent in English
  • Motivated self-starter who enjoys working in a fast-paced environment
  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail
  • Excellent interpersonal skills, flexible and adaptable
  • Strong oral and written communication skills
  • Team-oriented with an ability to work well independently

Desirable

  • 1-2 years experience working in IT audit/ cybersecurity/ information security/ GRC (Top 10 CPA firm, Coalfire, Align, Schellman)
  • Experience working with industry recognized security frameworks (SOC 2, etc.)
  • Cloud native certification or desire to pursue (ex. AWS Solutions Architect, GCP Professional Cloud Architect, etc.)

What the job involves

  • Thoropass is looking for a cloud expert to join our InfoSec Assurance team
  • You will be working with a world-class team of information security and compliance experts, where you will help our customers demonstrate information security best practices against sought-after Infosec frameworks
  • Work directly with customers in the cloud to verify security controls based on sought-after information security frameworks
  • Translate security and compliance requirements into actionable cloud tasks for team members to execute
  • Test and review implemented cloud configurations based on established security and privacy frameworks
  • Propose novel ideas for product features and ops improvements or opportunities for automation to empower a better customer experience
  • Most importantly: help Thoropass reimagine the information security audit experience

Our take

If you’re a growth-stage startup, you need to become SOC 2 compliant to be able to close enterprise deals. However, becoming SOC 2 compliant can be expensive, time-consuming, and pretty complicated. Thoropass (previously known as Laika) provides an end-to-end compliance service for startups, to enable them to work with legacy companies in highly regulated fields such as health and fintech.

Due diligence is quickly becoming a consideration from day one for startups in these fields, with an increase in collaboration between disruptive startups and legacy players. Thoropass has taken up an acute position between the two, allowing startups to get deals done more smoothly and scale more quickly, whilst allowing the established companies to access emerging talent.

Although Thoropass has maintained a strong focus on growing early-stage companies, it has ambitious plans to start working with big banks in the future. Significant funding raised by the company, which already has hundreds of customers, will see it invest in expanding the functionality of its platform and its wider business funnel.
