Principal Security Engineer - InfoSec GRC

Location Details:

At GoDaddy the future of work looks different for each team. Some teams work in the office full-time, others have a hybrid arrangement (they work remotely some days and in the office some days) and some work entirely remotely.

This is a remote position, so you’ll be working remotely from your home. You may occasionally visit a GoDaddy office to meet with your team for events or meetings.

This position is not eligible to be performed in Alaska, Mississippi, North Dakota, or the Virgin Islands.

GoDaddy is not currently considering candidates for this role in California, Seattle, or NYC.

Join our team

The Governance, Risk, and Compliance team helps GoDaddy identify, assess, and address security risk across the business. We lead regulatory and compliance audits, manage risk acceptances and exception workflows, support third-party risk activities, and define security standards and policies that guide teams across the company. This role is a strong fit for someone who wants to build a durable audit and controls program from the ground up, influence security strategy, and work directly with senior leaders on risk-based decision-making. The ideal candidate will gain the opportunity to shape a long-term security governance initiative, partner broadly across engineering and security teams, and drive meaningful improvements in how GoDaddy manages risk and audit readiness.
