Life as a Sprinter -

Nobody succeeds at Sprinto by staying in their lane.

We are organized around problems, not job titles. Sprinters take ownership beyond their role, solve hard problems, and care deeply about the impact they create. If something can be improved, fixed, or built, we don't wait for permission; we step in.

Being remote means we rely less on proximity and more on trust. We write things down, communicate openly, and move quickly because great teams aren't built by sitting together, they're built by pulling in the same direction.

We believe progress beats perfection, feedback is a gift, and doing the right thing matters, even when nobody is watching.

And while we move with urgency, we never move alone.

The mission -

Owns day-to-day GRC program maturity and delivery for Sprinto's standard-framework services — the highest-volume, highest-repeatability engine of Trust Assurance. Keeps the standard-framework playbook current, delivers consistently, and is the internal go-to for ISO 27001 / SOC 2 / GDPR / PCI DSS etc. maturity questions across Sales, SE, and CS

Where you'll leave your mark?

Deliver

Own delivery for standard-framework engagements: ISO 27001 (implementation & surveillance), SOC 2 Type I/II readiness, GDPR, PCI DSS compliance programs, gap assessments, control/check mapping, internal audits, policy reviews, audit readiness support.

Run multiple concurrent client engagements to a consistent quality bar without close supervision.

Build reusable IP

Maintain and evolve templates, control-mapping libraries, workshop agendas, and QA rubrics for standard frameworks; keep them current as frameworks revise (ISO 27001:2022 transition-type updates, SOC 2 trust criteria changes, GDPR enforcement guidance).

Extend the library opportunistically to adjacent frameworks (HIPAA, PCI DSS, ISO 42001) as demand grows.

Own commercial outcomes

Define pricing/packaging for standard-framework engagements (fixed-fee tiers, retainer options).

Own utilization, margin, and delivery forecasting for your own engagement book.

Partner with Sales/SE/CS to attach and renew standard-framework services; support deal conversion where technical validation is needed.

AI-enabled productization

Build and maintain AI-assisted playbooks for standard frameworks (gap assessment, control mapping, internal audit checklists).

Define structured input forms/checklists so juniors or AI-assisted workflows produce consistent first-draft output.

Set QA guardrails: mandatory source inputs, validation steps, human approval gates.

Quality & risk

Establish acceptance criteria and review checkpoints for deliverables.

Flag scope creep early; escalate ambiguous liability questions rather than absorbing them silently.
