We’re looking for someone who will partner closely with executive leadership and cross-functional teams to ensure the company manages risk thoughtfully while continuing to move quickly and grow responsibly. You’ll be a strategic, detail-oriented Risk Manager to help identify, assess, and mitigate risks across the business as we scale. This is a high-impact role that sits at the intersection of strategy, operations, compliance, and execution.
What you will do
- Act as a strategic advisor to leadership on enterprise, operational, regulatory, and commercial risk.
- Identify, assess, prioritize, and monitor risks across the organization, including operational, financial, regulatory, contractual, and third-party risks.
- Own and drive initiatives aimed at addressing key risk items, from defining scope through execution and resolution.
- Lead cross-functional risk programs and remediation efforts, ensuring clear ownership, timelines, and outcomes.
- Develop and maintain pragmatic risk frameworks, controls, and mitigation plans aligned with business priorities.
- Partner with Legal, Finance, Product, Revenue, and Operations teams to embed risk considerations into planning, deal structures, and go-to-market decisions.
- Translate risk insights into clear, actionable recommendations that support decision-making.
- Establish reporting and governance processes, leveraging risk management platforms and tooling to track risk exposure, initiative progress, and remediation status.
- Promote a risk-aware culture by enabling informed decisions without unnecessarily slowing the business.
- Stay ahead of evolving regulatory, market, and operational risks relevant to a growing organization.
What success looks like
- You influence cross-functional teams and drive alignment without relying on formal authority.
- You take ownership of ambiguous risk issues and lead them through to resolution.
- You balance risk management with a strong commercial mindset, understanding how decisions impact growth, revenue, and customer relationships.
- You communicate clearly and confidently with senior stakeholders, even in complex or fast-moving situations.
- You thrive in a dynamic, high-growth environment with shifting priorities.
- You bring sound judgment, high integrity, and a practical, business-first approach to risk.
What We Offer

- Support your long-term financial security with our 401(k) Retirement plan with company match.
- Save on everyday expenses with pre-tax FSA plans for Healthcare, Dependent care, and Commuting.
