Join the team as Twilio’s next Security Compliance & Regulatory Affairs Analyst
About the job
We are actively recruiting for this role to support Twilio’s global security regulatory program and directly support the SCRA Lead in executing and scaling the company’s regulatory strategy.
This position is responsible for independently owning delegated components of regulatory analysis, triage, normalization, and operationalization of global cybersecurity and telecom regulatory obligations (e.g., NIS 2, TSA UK, Singapore IMDA), while contributing to broader program-level initiatives led by the SCRA Lead.
The role operates with high autonomy and is expected to take ownership of assigned workstreams end-to-end, requiring strong critical thinking, defensible regulatory interpretation, designing and executing cross-functional initiatives, and the ability to operate without detailed instruction.
Responsibilities
In this role, you’ll:
- Support the SCRA Lead in executing Twilio’s global security regulatory strategy, including contributing to program design, prioritization, and long-term regulatory planning
- 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
- Support the development and maintenance of regulatory repositories and systems of record, ensuring accuracy, traceability, and audit readiness
- Execute and continuously improve the Cyber Regulation Intake & Triage process in partnership with Legal, ensuring consistent classification, routing, and lifecycle tracking of regulatory obligations
- Map regulatory requirements to internal control frameworks (e.g., UCF, ISO 27001, internal standards), identifying gaps and supporting Lead-driven control strategy decisions
- Develop regulator-ready and high-quality artifacts, including evidence mappings, control narratives, risk statements, and audit support documentation
- Identify, analyze, and escalate regulatory risks and audit obligations, supporting proactive planning and risk visibility at the program level
- Partner cross-functionally with Legal, Public Policy, R&D, Security, Product, Sales, and Risk teams, supporting the Lead in aligning regulatory interpretation with technical and business implementation
- Drive execution of process improvements, tooling enhancements, and automation initiatives defined by the SCRA program
- Operate with high ownership and accountability, executing work independently while aligning to strategic direction set by the SCRA Lead
