Senior IAM Specialist
Codest Ltd. Company No. 12590542, VAT number: GB363431020
DriveWealth is on a mission to make investing easier. We believe that everyone should have the ability to control their financial future, and that access to financial markets should not be limited by geography, wealth, or legacy systems. We are a global B2B financial technology organization dedicated to democratizing access to financial independence around the world. Our mission is realized through an API-based platform, empowering our partners to offer seamless investing and trading experiences to clients worldwide, all from their mobile devices. Our technology provides partners with a modern, extensible toolkit, enabling traditional investment workflows and innovative techniques like fractional share ownership. DriveWealth has evolved into a global platform offering trading of US equities, mutual funds, ETFs, fixed income, and options.
There’s never been a better time to build a category-defining business and there has rarely been a team better positioned for this opportunity. Our culture blends the pace and agility of a fintech start-up with the impact, stability, and discipline of Wall Street. We encourage creativity and experimentation while ensuring institutional-grade execution and regulatory compliance in everything we do. Join us and help build the future of global investing!
As a FINRA-member, SEC-registered broker-dealer powering brokerage-as-a-service and embedded investing for fintech partners around the world, DriveWealth operates where high-velocity technology meets one of the most heavily regulated industries on the planet. Every partner we onboard, every API we expose, and every trade that flows through our platform carries regulatory, client-trust, and operational-risk weight.
We are seeking an experienced, hands-on leader to serve as the connective tissue of our security program—owning governance and risk operations while also acting as a trusted advisor to the CISO and a credible voice with regulators, auditors, and enterprise partners. This is a builder's role: you will mature frameworks, quantify and report risk to executives and the board, stand up threat-intelligence and incident-response capabilities, and run third-party and client due diligence. The ideal candidate thrives with autonomy, drives initiatives to completion with minimal supervision, and can translate deep technical risk into clear business decisions.
Reporting directly to the CISO, the Head of Security GRC is responsible for leading the organization's governance, risk, and compliance program across a regulated broker-dealer environment. The role ensures alignment with SEC/FINRA obligations, global data-protection laws, and leading cybersecurity frameworks, while actively reducing enterprise risk. Beyond traditional GRC, this position owns security metrics and executive/board reporting, cyber threat intelligence, incident-response readiness, and third-party and client cyber due diligence. Success requires an independent, proactive leader who can drive cross-departmental initiatives, interface effectively with regulators and partners, and align security outcomes with business objectives.
This role is open to candidates in the following locations: New York City, Chicago, Austin, Dallas, Denver, Miami, San Francisco Bay Area, or Seattle.
Pay Range: $270,000 – $290,000 USD
We do our best work when we're in the same room. To maintain the speed our partners expect, our New York, Chicago, and Lithuania teams work in office on a hybrid schedule. We've found that being physically side-by-side is the only way to solve complex problems in real-time and stay truly accountable to the products we ship. When you're here, you're working directly with the people making the decisions.
To support that work, we provide competitive compensation, equity, and a 401(k) match. We also offer Medical insurance, Dental insurance, Vision insurance, Disability insurance, and Paid Parental Leave, along with a wellness reimbursement, a company-provided phone, and a personal development allowance. Finally, we value the time you spend away from the office with generous Paid Time Off (PTO) and observed holidays.
Applicants must possess the legal right to work in the country where the position is located at the time of application. DriveWealth requires all employees to provide original documentation verifying their work authorization on or before their first day of employment.
For US-based roles: Applicants must be currently authorized to work in the United States on a full-time basis without the need for current or future visa sponsorship. DriveWealth does not provide visa sponsorship or support for employment authorization, including transfers, at this time. Offers of employment are strictly contingent upon an individual’s ability to secure and maintain the legal right to work at the Company.
We leverage AI to work smarter and move faster. We seek AI-curious talent who are proactive about using emerging tools to increase signal quality, reduce friction, and improve outcomes to deliver products faster, provide better service to our partners, and to streamline processes. Your ability to leverage our internal tools and technology to drive results is as important to us as your core domain expertise.
Pay is generally based on the level, complexity, responsibility, location, and job duties/requirements of the specific position. We then source candidates with the requisite skills, expertise, education, training, and experience. If you are selected for an interview, please feel welcome to speak to a recruiter about our compensation philosophy and other available benefits. This role is eligible for base, bonus, equity, 401(k) match, and heavily subsidized benefits and perks.
To build technology and products that are used and loved by people and solve real-world problems, we need to build a team with many different perspectives and experiences. We are an equal opportunity employer. We do not discriminate based on race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status. We encourage candidates from all backgrounds to apply.
DriveWealth does not accept agency resumes. Do not forward resumes to our jobs alias, employees, or any other organization location. DriveWealth is not responsible for any fees related to unsolicited resumes.
