Company Overview
Docusign brings agreements to life. Over 1.5 million customers and more than a billion people in over 180 countries use Docusign solutions to accelerate the process of doing business and simplify people’s lives. With intelligent agreement management, Docusign unleashes business-critical data that is trapped inside of documents. Until now, these were disconnected from business systems of record, costing businesses time, money, and opportunity. Using Docusign’s Intelligent Agreement Management platform, companies can create, commit, and manage agreements with solutions created by the #1 company in e-signature and contract lifecycle management (CLM).
As the most trusted brand in our industry, Docusign recognizes that customer trust is rooted in continuous security, proactive compliance, and adherence to leading global standards. We deliver Security Compliance as a Product by embedding adaptive GRC frameworks directly into the Docusign Product and ecosystem, automatically scaling trust as standards as the GRC landscape evolves. This role is a critical leadership position accountable for managing GRC product and “pod” delivery, driving our global compliance strategy, accelerating the readiness of emerging certifications, and embedding automated audit preparedness across our platform to support business growth. Reporting directly to Docusign’s Senior Director of Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC), the Director of Security GRC Product Delivery will be a technically proficient, business-savvy leader who manages both the enterprise-wide security compliance program and leads cross-functional GRC delivery "Pods" embedded across our product, enterprise, and security domains. In this role, you will manage a high-performing team to deliver GRC as a product—proactively identifying and reducing security risks by embedding scalable security controls, streamlined evidence automation, and continuous control testing directly into engineering and business workflows. You will evolve the traditional compliance function beyond point-in-time audits. The Director will manage a unified GRC Pod (incorporating Governance, Risk, and Compliance capabilities), while leading the compliance facets of the GRC team, to deliver exceptional, consolidated service to designated security, product, and enterprise stakeholders. You will accelerate Docusign's ecosystem growth by treating compliance as a core product deliverable, embedding GRC standards into product releases to ensure continuous, out-of-the-box regulatory alignment. You will also manage and lead all end-to-end security compliance audits across industry-standard frameworks, applying deep domain knowledge to shape a risk-based compliance strategy that supports business innovation without impeding velocity.
This position is a people manager role reporting to the Senior Director of Governance, Risk, and Compliance.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding H-1B Visa Sponsorship as a Product Security Engineer
Align your degree to SOC codes
Product Security Engineer roles map to multiple SOC codes depending on the employer's LCA filing. Check O*NET to confirm your degree field aligns with the specialty occupation definition USCIS uses, so you can address any credential mismatch before interviews begin.
Target cap-exempt employers early
Universities, nonprofit research institutions, and government-affiliated entities are exempt from the H-1B cap. Product security roles exist at these organizations, and a cap-exempt petition can be filed at any time of year, bypassing the April lottery entirely.
Search verified H-1B sponsors on Migrate Mate
Filter by employers with confirmed H-1B LCA filings for security engineering roles on Migrate Mate. This shows you which companies have an active sponsorship track record, so you're not discovering a company's reluctance to file after the offer stage.
Request prevailing wage documentation upfront
Ask your prospective employer which wage level they intend to certify on your LCA. Use the OFLC Wage Search to verify the prevailing wage for your location and SOC code before accepting an offer, since the certified wage binds the employer for the petition's duration.
Document security certifications for RFE defense
USCIS sometimes issues Requests for Evidence on specialty occupation grounds for security roles with broad job descriptions. Gather official transcripts, CISSP or CEH certificates, and a detailed duties letter from your employer before the I-129 is filed to preempt this.
Plan your timeline around the 60-day grace period
If you're between H-1B employers, you have a 60-day grace period after your last day to secure a new approved petition or change status. Identify your next employer and initiate the transfer before your final paycheck, not after, to stay within this window.
H-1B Visa Product Security Engineer: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Product Security Engineer role qualify as a specialty occupation for H-1B purposes?
Yes. Product security engineering requires theoretical and practical application of highly specialized knowledge, typically in computer science, information security, or software engineering, which satisfies USCIS's specialty occupation definition. Your employer's job description must specify that a bachelor's degree or higher in a directly related field is a minimum requirement, not merely preferred.
Which industries hire Product Security Engineers on H-1B sponsorship most consistently?
Technology companies, financial services firms, healthcare technology platforms, defense contractors, and cloud infrastructure providers file H-1B petitions for product security roles regularly. Cap-exempt employers, including research universities and nonprofit think tanks with cybersecurity programs, are also active. You can filter by employer type and LCA filing history on Migrate Mate to identify consistent sponsors.
Can I transfer my H-1B to a new Product Security Engineer employer without losing my status?
Yes, through H-1B portability under AC21. Once your I-129 petition has been pending for 180 days or more and your new employer files a transfer petition, you can begin working for the new employer immediately upon filing. You don't need to wait for approval, but you must be maintaining valid H-1B status at the time of transfer.
How does the H-1B lottery affect my job search timeline for Product Security Engineer roles?
USCIS accepts H-1B cap-subject registrations in March each year for an October 1 start date. If you're on OPT or another status, you need a job offer before your employer can register you. Missing the March window means waiting a full year for the next cycle, so targeting employers early in the calendar year is practical for cap-subject candidates.
What should I check before accepting an offer from an H-1B sponsor for this role?
Verify the employer has filed LCA petitions for roles at your experience level, not just entry-level positions. Confirm they'll cover the H-1B filing fees required by law, including the I-129 and ACWIA training fees, which they cannot legally pass to you. Check that the offered salary meets or exceeds the prevailing wage for your SOC code and location using the OFLC Wage Search.
