Job Title

Diligent is the AI leader in governance, risk and compliance (GRC) SaaS solutions, helping more than 1 million users and 700,000 board members to clarify risk and elevate governance. The Diligent One Platform gives practitioners, the CSuite and the board a consolidated view of their entire GRC practice so they can more effectively manage risk, build greater resilience and make better decisions, faster. At Diligent, we''''re building the future with people who think boldly and move fast. Whether you''''re designing systems that leverage large language models or part of a team reimaging workflows with AI, you''''ll help us unlock entirely new ways of working and thinking. Curiosity is in our DNA, we look for individuals willing to ask the big questions and experiment fearlessly - those who embrace change not as a challenge, but as an opportunity. The future belongs to those who keep learning, and we are building it together. At Diligent, youre not just building the future - youre an agent of positive change, joining a global community on a mission to make an impact. Youll design and build automation that replaces manual, errorprone security and compliance work. The goal is simple: systems should produce evidence, enforce controls, and follow up on work automaticallywithout humans chasing tickets, spreadsheets, or Teams messages. Youll work closely with security, compliance, and product teams to turn vague operational requirements into deterministic, testable software. Some problems are rulesbased. Others benefit from AI assistance. Youre expected to make good calls about where each belongs. This is a handson engineering role. You will ship real workflows that touch production systems. What Youll Build Automation that reacts to system events (deployments, access changes, onboarding/offboarding, vendor lifecycle events). Services that create and reconcile records across systems (identity, ticketing, change management, vendor risk, training platforms). Evidencefirst workflows that generate audit artifacts as a side effect of normal operations. AIassisted tooling for summarization, classification, evidence mapping, and owner followups. Guardrails that prevent unsafe or noncompliant actions before they happen. Internal tools that make security and compliance states visible and actionable. Minimum Qualifications Strong software engineering background (backend, platform, or automation experience). Experience building production systems that integrate with multiple APIs. Comfortable with at least one modern backend stack (e.g., Python, TypeScript, Go, Java). Solid fundamentals: data modeling, async workflows, failure handling, idempotency. Experience designing systems that are reliable, auditable, and easy to reason about. Ability to work with ambiguous requirements and turn them into concrete implementations. Nice to Have (Not Required) Experience with identity systems (IAM, SSO, RBAC). Experience with ticketing, workflow, or ITSM tools. Familiarity with security, risk, or compliance concepts (ISO, SOC2, FedRAMP, etc.). Experience using LLMs for classification, summarization, extraction, or decision support. Eventdriven architectures, webhooks, or workflow orchestrators. Cloudnative systems and CI/CD pipelines. What This Is Not Not a research role. Not a promptengineering job. Not a policywriting role. Not AI theater. If it can be solved with deterministic logic, youll do that. If AI helps, youll use it responsibly and measurably. How Youll Be Measured Manual processes replaced with reliable automation. Fewer audit findings and faster evidence collection. Clear ownership, traceability, and systemgenerated records. Workflows that dont require humans to remember what to do next. Code quality, clarity, and operational reliability. Why This Role Matters Security and compliance teams are expected to operate at scale, with speed and precision, while using tools that were never designed to work together. Your job is to fix thatby shipping software that makes compliance the default outcome, not a lastminute scramble. If youre a strong engineer who enjoys cleaning up messy realworld systems and making them behave correctly, this role is for you.
