What is The Role :
At Elastic, governance and compliance are critical enablers of our business. As our products, customers, and regulatory landscape continue to evolve, we're investing in the next generation of security and compliance capabilities that help us scale with confidence. We are looking for a Senior Information Security Analyst who enjoys building efficient programs, simplifying complex requirements, and partnering across the organization to strengthen our security foundation.
This role sits within the Information Security (Infosec) organization and focuses on advancing the processes, frameworks, and operational practices that demonstrate Elastic's commitment to security and compliance. You will work closely with teams across Engineering, Product, Legal, IT, and Security to transform regulatory obligations into practical, repeatable processes while identifying opportunities to automate, modernize, and continuously improve how compliance is delivered.
Success in this role comes from balancing strategic thinking with hands-on execution. You will have the chance to influence how Elastic approaches compliance as we continue to grow. This could involve leading audits, improving security awareness, introducing AI-driven efficiencies, and designing scalable governance processes. If you enjoy solving complex challenges, driving operational excellence, and helping teams move faster while maintaining a strong security posture, we'd love to talk with you!
What You Will Be Doing :
• Lead and coordinate compliance programs supporting industry and regulatory frameworks, including SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, FedRAMP, TISAX, Cyber Essentials Plus, and other applicable certifications.
• Plan, manage, and execute internal and external audits by partnering with stakeholders to ensure timely evidence collection, control validation, and successful audit outcomes.
• Develop, maintain, and enhance governance processes that strengthen compliance while reducing operational overhead and improving scalability.
• Own and continuously evolve Elastic's security awareness and education program to promote a strong culture of security across the organization.
• Partner with Engineering, Product, IT, Legal, and business teams to translate compliance requirements into practical, risk-based security control
