The Opportunity

As part of Hitachi Energy’s Cybersecurity Compliance business, you will play an important role in strengthening the cybersecurity posture that supports critical power‑grid technologies and operations across the United States. This role gives you the opportunity to shape how cybersecurity, regulatory compliance, and national‑security requirements are integrated into the systems and processes that help modernize, protect, and sustain the energy ecosystem. You will work with people across legal, technical, and business functions to translate U.S. cybersecurity regulations and international standards into actionable steps that keep our capabilities resilient and compliant.
In this position, you will guide the Cybersecurity Compliance Program with a focus on CFIUS obligations, U.S. cybersecurity regulatory requirements, and internationally recognized standards such as NIST and ISO/IEC 27001. Your work will help maintain the trustworthiness, reliability, and security of technologies that enable safe and efficient power‑grid operations—including managing audit readiness, supporting assessments, and enabling continuous improvement in compliance processes and tools. You will build a deep understanding of cybersecurity frameworks that shape the future of secure energy systems while contributing to a culture of collaboration, rigor, and innovation.

How You’ll Make an Impact

  • Manage U.S. compliance activities connected to CFIUS, NIST SP 800‑171/172, CMMC 2.0, related federal Executive Orders, and other federal oversight obligations.
  • Support mandatory reporting needs and maintain readiness for internal and external audits.
  • Work with legal, technical, and business teams to maintain a proactive cybersecurity compliance posture.
  • Support assessments and audits related to ISO 27001, ISMS, and application‑level reviews tied to CFIUS obligations.
  • Drive improvements in compliance tooling and workflows, including work in ServiceNow IRM, OneTrust, and SharePoint migration efforts.
  • Responsible to ensure compliance with applicable external and internal regulations, procedures, and guidelines.

Your Background

  • 5+ years of experience in IT, cybersecurity compliance, public policy, or legal/regulatory roles.
  • Demonstrated expertise in U.S. federal cybersecurity regulations, including CFIUS NSA obligations, DFARS, NIST SP 800‑171/172, CMMC 2.0, FAR‑based procurement requirements, and sector‑specific standards such as NERC CIP.
  • Strong understanding of global cybersecurity frameworks, including NIST, ISO/IEC 27001, UCF, and IEC/62443.
  • Experience working in a global, multicultural environment, collaborating across functions and time zones.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English; additional languages are a plus.
  • Bachelor’s degree required; Master’s degree or certifications (CISM, CISSP, PMP) preferred.
  • Flexibility to work across time zones and travel occasionally.
  • Must be already live in the United States to support this role.
