Job Description

Amex GBT's Security GRC team is looking for a talented Senior Security GRC Engineer to design, build, and scale automation and AI-driven solutions that modernize our governance, risk, and compliance program. This role sits at the intersection of security engineering and GRC, translating manual, evidence-heavy processes into automated, data-driven workflows. The ideal candidate combines hands-on engineering skills with a strong understanding of GRC principles, and is excited to apply AI and automation to reduce risk, improve control coverage, and free up the team to focus on higher-value analysis.

What You'll Do

- Design, build, and maintain automation pipelines that continuously collect, normalize, and validate compliance and control evidence across security and business systems.
- Evaluate, prototype, and deploy AI and large language model (LLM)-based solutions to accelerate GRC workflows, including control testing, evidence review, policy mapping, and risk narrative generation.
- Integrate GRC tooling (e.g., Onspring, Archer, MetricStream, or similar platforms) with security and IT systems via APIs to enable automated data flows, dashboards, and reporting.
- Develop and maintain scripts, bots, and workflow tools that automate recurring GRC tasks such as evidence gathering, control monitoring, and audit preparation.
- Partner with Security GRC analysts and program managers to identify manual, repetitive processes and re-engineer them into scalable, automated solutions.
- Establish guardrails, testing, and quality controls to ensure AI-assisted outputs are accurate, explainable, and compliant with regulatory and audit requirements.
- Monitor and report on the performance,



reliability, and risk posture of automation and AI tools used within the GRC program.
- Stay current with emerging AI, automation, and GRC technologies, and recommend adoption of new tools and techniques to continuously improve program maturity.
- Collaborate with other AmexGBT teams (security, engineering, data, and business) to align automation initiatives with broader security posture and compliance goals.

What We're Looking For

- Bachelor's degree in computer science, information security, information systems, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
- 5+ years of experience in security engineering, GRC, or a related field, with demonstrated experience building automation or AI-enabled solutions.
- Strong programming/scripting skills (e.g., Python, JavaScript, or similar) and experience working with APIs, databases, and workflow automation tools.
- Hands-on experience applying AI or machine learning technologies (including LLMs and generative AI) to real-world business or security use cases.
- Solid understanding of cybersecurity frameworks (NIST, ISO 27001, SOC 2) and regulatory compliance requirements (GDPR, PCI DSS).
- Experience with GRC platforms such as Onspring, Archer, MetricStream, or similar tools, including configuration or integration work.
- Familiarity with risk assessment methodologies, control frameworks, and audit evidence requirements.
- Solid analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to translate complex, manual processes into automated solutions.
- Excellent communication and reporting skills, with the ability to present technical solutions and their risk/compliance impact to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
