Source and classification

Internal deployment & tooling · Evidence for this classification:

greenfield engineering role, not a configuration or administration position. You will not be deploying off-the-shelf GRC tools and calling it done. Instead, you will architect and engineer a purpose-built, continuous compliance monitoring platform capable of spanning a hybrid environment of on-premises classified systems and multi-cloud infrastructure (AWS GovCloud, Azure Government). This role sits at the intersection of software engineering, DevSecOps, and compliance, and demands someone who can write production-quality code, design robust API and webhook integration frameworks, and translate NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 and NIST SP 800-171 Rev. 3 control requirements into automated, evidence-generating technical workflows. You will own the architecture, build the pipelines, and integrate data from across the enterprise to produce a real-time, auditable, and scalable compliance posture

Space is a warfighting domain. True Anomaly seeks those with the talent and ambition to build the technology that secures it. OUR MISSION True Anomaly delivers decisive capabilities for space superiority. We build autonomous spacecraft, advanced payloads, mission software, and space-based interceptors — enabling the U.S. and its Allies to secure the space environment and counter threats from the ultimate high ground. OUR VALUES Be the offset. We create asymmetric advantages with creativity and ingenuity. What would it take? We challenge assumptions to deliver ambitious results. It’s the people. Our team is our competitive advantage and we are better together. Your Mission We are seeking a Senior Compliance Automation Engineer to join our Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) team and design and build True Anomaly's compliance automation platform from the ground up.

Implement an evidence collection and artifact management framework that automatically captures, timestamps, and indexes compliance evidence mapped to specific control requirements, enabling audit-ready artifact packages to be assembled on demand. Develop platform capabilities to support continuous authorization workflows, replacing point-in-time assessment cycles with living, automated control validation that feeds directly into ATO decision support.
