  • Experience supporting RFPs, security reviews, or compliance discussions

  • Startup or high-growth company experience

Closing

  • There are a variety of factors that go into determining a salary range, including but not limited to external market benchmark data, geographic location, and years of experience.

  • Based on the anticipated level of experience we are seeking, we expect the compensation range for this role to be between $162,500 and $219,500. You may also be offered a bonus of up to 10% and benefits.
