Treeline is a B2B IT and security provider that combines a software-driven platform with managed services to act as a customer's outsourced IT, security, and compliance team. The company offers AI-enhanced 24/7 help desk support, automated runbooks and onboarding workflows, identity and SaaS access management, device lifecycle management, and managed detection & response (EDR/MDR) with AI-driven alert triage. Treeline positions itself as a unified IT operating system that accelerates response times, reduces errors, enforces continuous security and compliance (SOC 2), and scales operations without proportional headcount growth. It is backed by Andreessen Horowitz and emphasizes rapid onboarding, automation across the employee lifecycle, and integrations with common enterprise tools (Google Workspace, Slack, Okta, CrowdStrike, etc. ).

📋 Description

• Own Treeline's compliance program end-to-end — controls, evidence collection, Vanta/Drata hygiene, and auditor coordination — driving from gap assessment through certification • Build and maintain security policies, risk registers, vendor assessments, and ISMS documentation from the ground up • Partner with engineering, GTM, operations, and our portfolio companies to embed security and compliance into how Treeline builds and delivers • Serve as the internal point of contact for all compliance inquiries, customer security questionnaires, and audit requests • Lead SOC 2 and ISO 27001 readiness engagements end-to-end — scoping, gap assessment, control implementation, and audit preparation • Manage the audit partner relationship and coordinate penetration testing as part of a complete compliance delivery package • Operate at every altitude: technical deep-dives with security engineers, roadmap presentations with founders and key stakeholders • Independently project manage multiple concurrent customer engagements — nothing slips, nothing waits on someone else • Help build and grow Treeline's Compliance-as-a-Service offering into a repeatable, revenue-generating product line • Define the frameworks, scoping standards, and customer-facing artifacts that make compliance delivery scalable — so every engagement gets better, not just bigger • Feed what you learn in the field directly back into the platform — your customer work is upstream of product decisions, not downstream of them

🎯 Requirements

• 5–8+ years in compliance, security, or risk — with meaningful time at or alongside an audit or advisory firm (SOC 2 audit shop, Big 4 risk practice, compliance consultancy) • Personally run SOC 2 and ISO readiness projects end-to-end, not just supported them — you know what auditors will ask before they ask it • Hands-on experience building compliance frameworks from scratch, not just maintaining established programs • Deep familiarity with SOC 2 and ISO 27001; FedRAMP familiarity a plus • Vanta or Drata experience strongly preferred — you know the platform, not just the concept • Exceptional project management discipline — you can carry multiple engagements simultaneously and nothing slips • Customer-facing communication skills that work at every level — as comfortable with a CISO as with a 5-person founding team • Energized by building programs from scratch — blank-page problems don't intimidate you, they motivate you • You want compliance to be a business driver, not a checkbox — and you know how to make that case • US-based, available to travel occasionally to customer sites as the program scales

🏖️ Benefits

• Founding equity at an a16z-backed company transforming a $200B+ market — you're joining at the inflection point, not after it • Your work directly informs what Treeline's engineering team builds into the platform — you're upstream of product decisions, not downstream • Direct partnership with Engineering and leadership; no layers, no ticket queues for your own ideas • A team that values execution over hierarchy — small, collaborative, and genuinely building something new in a market that hasn't seen real innovation in decades • Competitive base salary + equity • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage • Flexible PTO and remote-first work environment
