About the role:
Replit’s ecosystem is powered by an expanding array of external services and essential AI model partners. As our lead for Security Vendor Risk & Contract Reviews, you will architect and execute a risk management program focused on substantive evaluation rather than just processing checklists. You’ll analyze SOC 2 documentation, security assessments, and system architectures to determine actual risk profiles, collaborating with our Legal team to secure necessary contractual protections. This role reports to the Head of Security GRC and involves high-impact partnerships across Legal, Engineering, and Product teams.
What You'll Do
Run substantive third-party risk management (TPRM), independently evaluating real risk, not just processing questionnaire responses
Review SOC 2 reports, pen test findings, and architecture documentation to form an independent view of vendor risk, extending the same rigor to AI/model providers
Partner with Legal on vendor and AI contract terms, including DPAs, subprocessor agreements, and AI-specific provisions
Review contracts for non-standard security language when flagged by Legal or deal desk, and recommend redlines
Maintain the vendor and AI/model risk register, feeding findings into the company's master risk register
Enable sales through maturing the customer trust program
Build the capability for continuous monitoring of vendor ecosystem
Required Skills & Experience
8+ years in third-party/vendor risk management, security risk, or a related GRC role
Demonstrated ability to independently assess vendor risk rather than relying on questionnaire responses alone, fluent in reading SOC 2 reports, ISO certificates, pen test summaries, and architecture documentation
Experience reviewing or redlining security and data-handling contract language, ideally in partnership with a legal team
Working knowledge of data privacy fundamentals (GDPR, CCPA) as they relate to vendor and subprocessor relationships
Strong cross-functional collaboration skills — this role touches Legal, Engineering, Product, and Sales regularly
Experience building repeatable, scalable vendor review processes rather than inheriting an existing one
Bonus Qualifications
Direct experience assessing foundation model providers or AI/ML vendors specifically
Experience automating or streamlining third-party review workflows (e.g., continuous vendor monitoring, automated evidence pulls) is a plus
Familiarity with NIST AI RMF, ISO 42001, or the EU AI Act
Background at an AI-native product company or an LLM/model provider
Paralegal experience or formal contract review training
Relevant certifications (CTPRP, CISSP, CIPP/E)
