Why This Job is Featured on The SaaS Jobs
Compliance has become a core go to market requirement for enterprise SaaS, and this Senior Compliance Manager role sits directly at that intersection. The listing signals a platform used by large organisations, where certifications, audit readiness, and customer due diligence are part of winning and retaining accounts. In an AI enabled SaaS context, trust work is not a back office function but a product and revenue enabler, making the scope particularly relevant to modern B2B software.
From a SaaS career standpoint, the role offers broad exposure to how security, legal, engineering, product, and sales collaborate to operationalise risk. Owning end to end programs across multiple frameworks builds a repeatable playbook that transfers across commercial SaaS and PaaS environments, especially for companies moving into regulated markets. The emphasis on evidence automation and continuous monitoring also reflects where compliance teams are heading as SaaS scales.
This role best fits a senior operator who prefers building structure across ambiguity, influencing without direct authority, and translating control requirements into practical execution. It will suit someone who wants to be the internal reference point for compliance posture, comfortable working with external assessors and shaping priorities with leadership while also developing a small team over time.

Job Description
Why Harvey
At Harvey, we’re transforming how legal and professional services operate. By combining frontier agentic AI, an enterprise-grade platform, and deep domain expertise, we’re reshaping how critical knowledge work gets done for decades to come.
This is a rare chance to help build a generational company at a true inflection point. With 1500+ customers in 60+ countries, strong product-market fit, and world-class investor support, we’re scaling fast and defining a new category in real time. The work is ambitious, the bar is high, and the opportunity for growth — personal, professional, and financial — is unmatched.
Our team moves fast, takes ownership, and is deeply committed to the mission — operating with intensity, staying close to our customers, and pushing each other for excellence. We live by three values: Decisiveness, Simplicity, and Job's Not Finished. We act quickly on clear judgment over perfect information, we believe simplicity is what scales, and we're never satisfied with where we are. If you want to do the best work of your career alongside people who share that drive, we'd love to build with you.
At Harvey, the future of professional services is being written today — and we’re just getting started.
Role Overview
Some of the world's largest companies and their law firms use Harvey's AI capabilities to deliver world-class client services at unprecedented scale and efficiency.

In this role, you'll report to the Head of Trust and own Harvey's end-to-end compliance programs. You will be accountable for establishing and scaling certifications and compliance programs critical to Harvey's expansion into regulated markets. You will work cross-functionally with Engineering, Product Security, Legal, Sales, and external assessors, advisors, and government partners to build a best-in-class compliance practice, and will recruit and lead a small, high-impact team to operate it at scale.
What You'll Do
Build the business case and strategic roadmap for compliance investments, articulating ROI, certification sequencing, and market opportunity to leadership
Lead gap assessments and compliance readiness evaluations across applicable frameworks, producing maturity baselines and prioritized remediation roadmaps
Select, onboard, and manage third-party assessors and compliance advisors; hold partners accountable to timelines and escalate risks early
Drive audit readiness — coordinating evidence collection, continuous monitoring, and audit documentation management with Engineering and Security
Support customer security reviews, RFP responses, and due diligence conversations as the authoritative internal voice on Harvey's compliance posture
Build and lead a small team: hire, set direction, develop members, and scale program operations as Harvey's footprint grows
What You Have
10+ years in information security or compliance, with 5+ years leading compliance programs for commercial SaaS or PaaS
Deep command of the compliance lifecycle -- scoping, gap analysis, control documentation, assessment coordination, and continuous monitoring
Proven cross-functional influence at the senior level; able to drive compliance outcomes across Engineering, Product, Legal, and Sales without slowing the business
Track record selecting and managing third-party assessors and compliance advisory firms
Experience building and leading small teams in fast-paced environments, with a bias for hiring exceptional people and creating clarity from ambiguity
1–2+ years using AI tools to improve program efficiency (evidence automation, gap analysis, continuous monitoring)
