How you'll help us Keep Climbing (overview & key responsibilities)
At Delta, we connect people and cultures, power extraordinary experiences, and shape the future of travel. Here, you'll work on complex challenges on a global scale, using augmented intelligence to build emerging technologies, amplify human potential and continuously grow the skills that keep you at the forefront of what's next.
The Sr. Security Engineer - Governance, Risk, and Compliance is a rare hybrid: a strategic governance leader and a hands-on automation engineer. This person excels at both the strategy and execution needed to ensure the Information Security Governance team drives organizational behavior change, fosters a security-first culture, and reduces risk through well-defined policies, standards, and measurable security outcomes.
This is as much a builder's role as it is a governance role. You will define Delta's Information Security Standards and maintain mappings to regulatory and industry frameworks. You will also design, build, and deploy automation solutions that collect, calculate, and visualize security control effectiveness and KPI data, providing leadership with real-time insight into security posture and risk.
You will create new processes, tooling, and scalable solutions within a team transforming how Information Security supports the business and protects the information entrusted to us by customers, employees, and partners. Working closely with engineers, architects, tool owners, and security leaders across domains including Cloud Security, PKI, Network Security, and IoT/OT Security, you will drive alignment, enable others to build secure solutions, and solve complex security challenges at enterprise scale.
- Provide Policy and Standards subject-matter leadership through the development and maintenance of Delta’s Information Security Policy, Standards, and procedures — updating them at least annually, ensuring alignment with applicable frameworks and regulations, and ensuring they are clear and understandable at all levels of the organization, from technical teams to frontline personnel.
- Own and maintain the mapping of Information Security Standards to authoritative regulatory frameworks (e.g., NIST 800-53, NIST 800-171, PCI DSS, SOX, ISO 27001) and sustain the full compliance-traceability chain — from authoritative source through standard, control, evidence, findings, and exceptions — within Delta’s GRC platform (RSA Archer), including the governed, auditable standards-change approval workflow and Domain Owner review model.
- Design, build, and deploy automated security control tests and metric collectors — writing production code (Python, Infrastructure-as-Code) that connects to security tools’ APIs, calculates coverage, risk-reduction, and process/governance metrics, and publishes results to the GRC platform and to Information Security dashboards for leadership.
- Develop and own Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and Key Risk Indicators (KRIs) end-to-end — from identifying the right metric with tool owners, through calculation logic, to real-time visualization — to measure the effectiveness of Delta’s Information Security program.
- Establish reusable engineering patterns, templates, and developer tooling (including AI-assisted development agents, automation scripts, and documentation standards) that enable tool owners and other engineers to contribute to metric automation quickly and consistently, scaling delivery beyond a single engineer.
- Shepherd changes to production through the enterprise change-management process — authoring Request for Change (RFC) documents, answering Change Advisory Board (ECAB) questions, and coordinating deployments with zero-incident execution.
- Advance security documentation and guidance — including publishing standards, supplemental guidance, and emerging-technology mandates (such as AI security mandates and cloud/SaaS security requirements) — on Delta’s internal documentation platforms in clear, plain language.
- Improve Delta’s security positioning through process improvement, policy, automation, and the continuous evolution of capabilities; identify automation opportunities and provide innovative, risk-based insights to inform Information Security leadership.
- Help develop a strong security-driven culture where security is part of every employee’s day-to-day operations and attitudes, and communicate the value of Information Security to key stakeholders.
- Tackle “big” problems, provide options, and drive resolution.

Tips for Your Security And Compliance Job Search
Certify before you apply
Credentials like CISA, CISSP, CISM, or CRISC signal fluency in the frameworks employers actually audit against. List each certification with its issue date and renewal status so hiring managers don't have to ask.
Tailor your resume to the framework
Map your experience explicitly to the regulatory frameworks in each job posting, whether that's SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, or NIST. Generic compliance experience reads as background noise when a role demands a specific control environment.
Target roles by your sector experience
Compliance in financial services, healthcare, and defense contracting each carry distinct regulatory obligations. Filter openings by industry and apply to roles where your sector background matches, since hiring managers weight this heavily in screening.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists security and compliance openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Prepare for scenario-based interview questions
Interviewers routinely present a hypothetical incident or audit finding and ask how you'd respond. Walk through your diagnosis, stakeholder communication, and remediation steps in sequence so your answer demonstrates process, not just knowledge.
Negotiate using scope, not just title
Compensation in security and compliance often reflects the breadth of regulatory environments you'll own. Before accepting an offer, clarify which frameworks, business units, and audit cycles fall under your remit so you're negotiating on full scope.
Security And Compliance Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most security and compliances?
The companies hiring the most security and compliances right now include Allied Universal, Amazon, and Amazon Web Services, with the largest share of openings in California, Texas, and Virginia, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Demand is concentrated in financial services, healthcare systems, and large technology firms with active audit obligations.
How many security and compliance jobs are remote?
About 68% of security and compliance openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting the portable nature of policy and audit work. Roles focused on policy writing, third-party vendor risk review, and GRC platform administration tend to be the most amenable to fully remote arrangements, while on-site presence is more common for roles tied to regulated facilities or physical security.
How do you become a security and compliance?
Start by earning a relevant bachelor's degree in cybersecurity, information systems, finance, or business administration. Build foundational knowledge of regulatory frameworks like NIST, SOC 2, or HIPAA through coursework or self-study, then pursue an entry-level compliance analyst or audit associate role to gain hands-on experience. Earning a recognized certification such as CISA or CRISC while working accelerates your path to mid-level and senior positions.
Can I break into security and compliance without direct experience?
Yes, candidates with adjacent backgrounds in IT support, legal, finance, or internal audit regularly transition into security and compliance roles. Emphasize any exposure to policy documentation, access control reviews, or vendor assessments on your resume. Pairing that experience with a recognized entry-level certification like CompTIA Security+ or a CISA study path demonstrates intent and bridges the experience gap for employers willing to train.
What does the security and compliance interview process look like?
Most processes begin with a recruiter screen focused on your framework experience and sector background, followed by a technical or competency interview with the hiring manager where scenario-based questions test your audit and risk reasoning. A panel interview with cross-functional stakeholders from legal, IT, or finance is common for mid-level and above roles. Some employers add a written exercise asking you to draft a brief policy section or assess a hypothetical control gap before an offer is extended.
Where can I find and apply to security and compliance jobs?
You can find and apply to security and compliance jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from employers across the United States. Search the listings to find roles that match your experience, framework background, and preferred work arrangement, then apply directly to each listing that fits.
