Security Compliance & Regulatory Affairs Analyst

Twilio Twilio · Enterprise · AB · Remote · Security

Twilio is seeking a Security Compliance & Regulatory Affairs Analyst to support its global security regulatory program. The role involves interpreting and operationalizing global cybersecurity and telecom regulatory obligations, mapping requirements to internal controls, and developing regulator-ready artifacts. The analyst will work autonomously, requiring strong critical thinking and cross-functional collaboration.

What you'd actually do

  1. Support the SCRA Lead in executing Twilio’s global security regulatory strategy, including contributing to program design, prioritization, and long-term regulatory planning
  2. Independently interpret complex and ambiguous regulatory frameworks (e.g., NIS 2, EU transpositions, TSA UK) and provide structured outputs that support Lead-level strategy and decision-making
  3. Support the development and maintenance of regulatory repositories and systems of record, ensuring accuracy, traceability, and audit readiness
  4. Execute and continuously improve the Cyber Regulation Intake & Triage process in partnership with Legal, ensuring consistent classification, routing, and lifecycle tracking of regulatory obligations
  5. Map regulatory requirements to internal control frameworks (e.g., UCF, ISO 27001, internal standards), identifying gaps and supporting Lead-driven control strategy decisions

  • Experience mapping regulatory requirements to control frameworks, policies, and technical implementations
  • Broad understanding of security architecture, networking, access control, software development, cryptography, and operations. You should be fluent in how security controls are implemented across applications, systems, and cloud platforms to reduce inherent risk.
