The opportunity

We're looking for a Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM) Analyst to own how Fireworks evaluates, onboards, and monitors the vendors and subprocessors we depend on. You'll join our security and compliance team and run the full vendor risk lifecycle: intake, due diligence, risk…

What you'll do

  • Run vendor intake and risk tiering. Triage inbound vendor requests from: Engineering, IT, GTM, and Legal, classify each vendor by data sensitivity and criticality, and scale review depth to the tier.

  • Perform security due diligence. Review SOC 2 Type II reports, ISO: 27001/27701/42001 certificates, HIPAA and GDPR documentation, pen test summaries, and security questionnaires, then translate them into a clear, defensible risk rating.

  • Spot real gaps. Tell a true control gap from an acceptable compensating: control, document findings and exceptions, and drive risk acceptance decisions with the right risk owners.

  • Partner on contracts. Work with Legal and Procurement on DPAs, BAAs,: subprocessor terms, and security addenda so risk findings are reflected before contracts are signed.

  • Monitor vendors continuously. Run reassessments on a tiered cadence, track: SOC 2 and ISO report expirations and bridge letters, watch for vendor incidents and breaches, and review subprocessor changes.

  • Track remediation to closure. Follow up with vendors and internal owners,: keep issues moving, and maintain an accurate vendor inventory and risk register in our GRC platform.

What they're looking for

  • years of experience in third-party/vendor risk management, GRC, IT audit, or information security
  • Hands-on experience running vendor security assessments: reviewing questionnaires, SOC 2 and ISO reports, and security documentation, and turning them into a clear risk rating
  • Familiarity with the TPRM lifecycle: intake, risk tiering, exceptions and risk acceptance, remediation tracking, and periodic reassessment
  • Working knowledge of SOC 2, ISO 27001/27701/42001, HIPAA, GDPR, NIST CSF, or: similar, and common control domains (access control, encryption, incident response, BC/DR)
  • Experience with a GRC or TPRM platform (Anecdotes, Vanta, Drata, Secureframe, OneTrust, Whistic, or similar)
  • Comfort with cloud environments (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and how SaaS and AI: products are built and operated, enough to assess vendors that host or process our data
  • Strong written communication: you can explain a vendor risk to engineers, Legal, Procurement, and non-technical employees without overstating or hand-waving
  • Detail-oriented and organized, with the ability to juggle many reviews and deadlines without dropping rigor
