Requirements

The candidate should possess 2-4 years of experience in information security, IT audit, or compliance, with a preference for experience in payments or financial services. Practical knowledge of PCI DSS requirements and related frameworks such as ISO 27001 and SOC 2 is necessary, along with experience supporting audits and managing compliance evidence.

The role involves participating in PCI DSS scope validation and segmentation testing, performing scheduled PCI DSS control checks, tracking remediation actions, and supporting quarterly and annual compliance activities such as penetration testing and vulnerability scanning. Responsibilities also include monitoring and documenting the operational effectiveness of PCI controls, keeping PCI DSS scope narratives and system diagrams updated, preparing PCI status reports, logging compliance exceptions, and responding to PCI DSS-related merchant and partner due diligence requests. Additionally, the analyst will provide PCI DSS awareness sessions to internal teams and promote a security-first culture.
