We’re hiring a Senior IT Systems Engineer to help design and scale how we manage compliance, security, and audit readiness at Dave. This role focuses on building systems and automation that make compliance continuous, reliable, and embedded into how we operate.
You’ll operate at the intersection of IT, security, and compliance, and you’ll be an influential contributor for a team that helps design systems to replace manual audit work with automated, scalable solutions. This includes automating evidence collection, strengthening IT General Controls, and integrating tools so compliance becomes part of day-to-day workflows rather than a periodic exercise.
This is a high-impact role with real ownership. You’ll help shape how we scale our internal process through better systems, working across teams to turn requirements into durable, low-friction solutions.
Build scalable, resilient, and secure systems
Your work will enable Dave to scale securely with greater confidence, reducing audit overhead while increasing trust in our systems and controls.
Knowledge of encryption, and PII handling in the context of compliance and data governance
You take responsibility for outcomes and think beyond individual controls to how systems should work end-to-end. You care about building solutions that hold up over time, and you’ll reduce manual effort while improving accuracy and trust in our systems.
You work well across boundaries, partnering with Business & Engineering functions to drive business value with tools. As requirements evolve, you’re comfortable navigating ambiguity, asking thoughtful questions, and adjusting your approach while continuing to move work forward.
This is a hands-on role with meaningful ownership and influence. You’ll balance near-term audit and compliance needs with longer-term system design, helping us move toward more automated and continuous approaches to compliance.
Have real ownership in shaping a more efficient, modern compliance function
