INTRODUCTION
The mission of TikTok's Global Security Organization is to build and earn trust by reducing risk and securing our businesses and products. Also known as "GSO", this team is the foundation of our efforts to keep TikTok safe, secure, and operating at scale for over 1 billion people around the world. We work to ensure that the TikTok platform is safe and secure, that our users' experience and their data remains safe from external or internal threats, and that we comply with global regulations wherever TikTok operates. Trust is one of TikTok's biggest initiatives, and security is integral to our success. In whatever ways users interact with us — whether they're watching videos on their For You page, interacting with a Live video, or buying products on TikTok Shop — GSO protects their data and privacy, so they can have a secure and trustworthy experience. The GSO provides industry-leading security and privacy services to the company, guided by four principles: trust and transparency, business enablement, risk-informed decision-making, and proactive risk reduction.

The role spans three primary General IT Control (i.e., GITC) domains: Access Management, Change Management, and System Monitoring. It balances near-term audit readiness with the longer-term objective of building a sustainable, automated control environment that scales with business growth.

- Support execution of periodic User Access Reviews to ensure inappropriate access is identified and revoked in a timely manner.
- Assist in enforcing Segregation of Duties requirements between change developers, approvers, and migrators.
-
Help formalize governance over in-scope alarms, including monitoring alarm changes, access to alert configurations, and timely alert handling.
-
Audit Readiness & Testing
- Support internal readiness reviews and mock audits across GITC domains.
- Extract, validate, and maintain testing populations for in-scope systems and control domains.
-
Prepare evidence and support testing activities for internal stakeholders and external auditors.
-
Gap Remediation & External Audit Support
- Facilitate, validate, and retest remediation activities to confirm audit readiness and timely closure of control gaps.
- Support external audit execution by coordinating evidence requests, auditor inquiries, walkthroughs, and follow-ups.
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS
- Demonstrated working knowledge of General IT Controls across the three core domains:
- Access Management: access provisioning workflows, periodic access reviews, authentication mechanisms, privileged access management, role-based access control, and security classification frameworks.
- Change Management: SDLC controls, change approval workflows, segregation of duties in CI/CD environments, code repository governance, protected branch configurations, and emergency/minor change policy design.
- System Monitoring: alarm/alert management, SLA-based incident response, monitoring dashboards, alarm inventory governance, and configuration management for alerting systems.
- Ability to understand technical system architectures and read code repository configurations, CI/CD pipeline settings, and monitoring configurations. Understanding of data flow analysis techniques for complex, multi-system environments.
- Experience with system discovery, process flow mapping, control narrative/template development, and audit population extraction.
- Proven track record in successfully developing, implementing, and managing comprehensive compliance programs at scale with experience engaging directly with regulators, external auditors, or supervisory bodies.
- Exceptional analytical, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills, coupled with the ability to translate complex legal and technical concepts into clear, actionable advice for diverse technical and non-technical audiences.
- Demonstrated ability to work independently, effectively manage multiple competing priorities, and thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic, and often ambiguous environment.
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
- 5+ years of experience in IT audit, SOX/GITC controls, IT compliance, or information security assurance roles within a regulated industry.
- Bachelor's degree in Law, Computer Science, Information Security, Business Administration, or a closely related field.

- Proficiency in Python, SQL, and data analysis.
- Industry experience in technology or social media.
- Relevant professional certifications such as CISA, CISM, CRISC, CISSP, or CIPP/E.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Green Card Sponsorship in Security And Compliance
Map your credentials to PERM requirements
PERM requires your degree field to align with the job duties, not just your title. A computer science or information systems degree maps cleanly to security analyst roles; a general business degree may trigger a PERM audit if the job description demands technical specialization.
Target employers with PERM filing history
Search OFLC disclosure data for companies that have filed PERM applications under SOC codes for information security analysts. Employers who have completed PERM before understand the recruitment documentation requirements and are far less likely to abandon the process mid-filing.
Use Migrate Mate to find green card sponsoring roles
Filter your search on Migrate Mate by EB-2 or EB-3 sponsorship to surface security and compliance employers with active green card filing history, so you're not spending time on roles where sponsorship is unlikely or untested.
Clarify sponsorship scope before accepting an offer
Ask employers whether their sponsorship commitment covers PERM, I-140, and adjustment of status, or only the initial petition. Some employers sponsor PERM but require you to self-fund the I-485 filing fees, which affects your total out-of-pocket costs.
Obtain U.S.-recognized certifications before PERM filing
Credentials like CISSP, CISM, or CompTIA Security+ are frequently listed as job requirements in PERM applications for security roles. Holding these before the recruitment process starts prevents gaps between your qualifications and the DOL-approved job description.
Understand EB-2 versus EB-3 job description differences
USCIS distinguishes EB-2 and EB-3 based on the minimum requirements stated in the PERM job description, not your actual credentials. Confirm with your employer that the job posting specifies an advanced degree if you're seeking EB-2 classification.
Green Card Security And Compliance: Frequently Asked Questions
Do security and compliance roles typically qualify for EB-2 or EB-3 sponsorship?
Most mid-to-senior security and compliance positions qualify for EB-2 because the role requires an advanced degree or a bachelor's degree plus substantial specialized experience. Entry-level compliance analyst roles with a standard bachelor's degree requirement typically fall under EB-3. The PERM job description controls which category applies, so the employer's wording matters more than your actual credentials.
How does green card sponsorship differ from H-1B for security and compliance professionals?
The green card process through PERM leads to permanent residency rather than a renewable temporary status. Unlike the H-1B visa, there's no annual lottery for EB-3 sponsorship, and the process isn't capped the same way. The tradeoff is timeline: PERM, I-140, and adjustment of status together typically run two to four years for most countries, compared to a few months for an H-1B.
Can I search for security jobs by green card sponsorship type?
Yes. Migrate Mate lets you filter security and compliance job listings by EB-2 or EB-3 sponsorship history, so you can focus on employers who have already completed PERM filings for similar roles. This saves significant time compared to manually cross-referencing OFLC disclosure files with job postings.
What does the PERM recruitment process look like for security and compliance employers?
Employers must run a formal DOL-mandated recruitment campaign, including job postings, internal notices, and newspaper advertisements, to document that no qualified U.S. worker applied. For security roles requiring specialized certifications or clearance-adjacent experience, employers often find the recruitment test straightforward because the qualified candidate pool is narrow and well-defined.
Does holding a security clearance affect my green card eligibility or PERM filing?
A security clearance doesn't directly affect green card eligibility, but it can complicate the PERM process. DOL requires employers to genuinely recruit U.S. workers, and clearance requirements can limit the applicant pool in ways that need careful documentation. Employers sometimes separate the clearance requirement from the minimum PERM job requirements to avoid DOL audit scrutiny.
