SECURITY COMPLIANCE ANALYST

Security Compliance Analyst

The Information Services Program is seeking a qualified Security Compliance Analyst to join the Systems Administration Team. This Senior Database Analyst position is a specialized agency role that bridges systems administration, auditing, and regulatory compliance. The work requires applying knowledge of systems administration and regulatory frameworks to practical situations involving systems configuration remediation.

The selected candidate will prepare for and participate in periodic internal and external IT systems and process audits; serve as the Systems Administration point of contact for annual IRS Safeguard Security Report updates and audit findings; develop, document, and track corrective action plans; coordinate responses, timelines, and status updates with technical and business stakeholders; and communicate progress, challenges, risks, and successes to agency leadership.

The position uses established change-control processes to implement remediations, strengthen internal controls, provide staff guidance on audit-response and compliance requirements, improve organizational awareness, recommend forward-looking upgrades with the supervisor and technical lead, and identify process improvements that reduce the recurrence of findings. Strong organization, attention to detail, collaboration, and clear technical communication are essential to protecting systems and data and meeting agency and IRS requirements.

Minimum requirements include one year of experience in systems administration, regulatory compliance, IT audit participation and remediation, system hardening, or closely related technical support. Experience participating in at least one IT audit or compliance-review cycle, including preparing audit evidence, responding to findings, developing corrective actions, or tracking technical remediation. Experience with hands-on administration, configuration, security, or hardening of Windows Server, Active Directory, or Group Policy. Applicants must document experience performing both activities listed above.
