Senior Public Sector Compliance Manager

Menlo Security is the leader in Browser Security for human and agentic workforces. Our mission is to enable humans and agents to connect, communicate, and collaborate securely, without compromise. The Menlo Browser Security Platform protects organizations from cyberattacks by stopping threats across the web, documents, and email before they reach the user. With Menlo Agent Runtime Security (MARS), that protection now extends to the AI agents working alongside every employee. Menlo Security is trusted by major global businesses, including Fortune 500 companies and government agencies, to protect their most valuable asset, their data, and is backed by top-tier investors.

About the Role

We are seeking a detail-oriented FedRAMP Compliance Manager to support our organization's adherence to the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) requirements. This role is critical to ensuring our cloud services maintain compliance with federal security standards and support continuous monitoring, authorization processes, and audits. The ideal candidate will have experience with NIST SP 800-53, FedRAMP documentation, and working with cloud service providers in a regulatory context.

About Menlo Security

Menlo Security, a leader in cloud security, has raised $100 million in Series E funding, valuing the company at $800 million. The round was led by Vista Equity Partners (“Vista”), a leading global investment firm focused on enterprise software, data and technology-enabled businesses, with additional participation from Neuberger Berman funds, General Catalyst, JP Morgan, and other existing investors. This new capital will further fuel market expansion and empower the company to scale go-to-market capabilities, as well as provide increased investment in engineering to accelerate product delivery and category expansion.

As businesses of all sizes embrace remote working and migrate to software as a service (SaaS), security is being completely re-architected to combat modern day threats such as phishing and ransomware. Traditional “detect and respond” approaches fail to provide the safety that users and businesses need. Menlo Security’s mission is to make internet use safe, seamless, and effective. The Menlo Security Cloud SWG is an extensible security platform – built on a unique isolation core – that delivers on the promise of cloud security by:

• Providing the most effective zero trust approach to preventing malicious attacks;

• Offering a seamless experience for end users that allows for safe, uninterrupted work while accessing the internet, SaaS or private applications; and

• Removing the significant operational burden for security operations teams.

Exciting things are happening at Menlo! We’re looking to grow in the next phase of our journey, and we need talented people to help us get there. Our five core values are: Customer Empathy, Thinking Creatively, Stay Aligned, Get It Done, Help Each Other Out. If you want to make a real impact, solve new challenges and take ownership of your career, we encourage you to apply and join our team!
