ABOUT RETELL AI

Retell AI is using first-principles thinking to reimagine the call center with cutting-edge voice AI. Thousands of companies now use Retell's AI voice agents to handle sales, support, and logistics calls that once required large teams of human agents. Backed by Y Combinator, Alt Capital, and other leading investors, we've scaled to $80M in ARR with a team of 50, up from $5M at the start of 2025, and are now valued at over $1.5B.

Our vision for 2026 is to build a modern CX platform where entire contact centers are powered by AI. Instead of basic automation that needs constant human tuning, we're creating intelligent AI “workers” that act as frontline agents, QA analysts, and managers, continuously executing, monitoring, and improving every customer interaction.

We're growing fast and looking for ambitious builders who want to tackle hard technical problems, move quickly, and have a real impact on one of the fastest-growing voice AI companies in the world.

Let's build the future together.

ABOUT THE ROLE

Retell AI transforms customer experience with voice AI for enterprises, including customers like CVS/Aetna, American Airlines, Lenovo, and Grab. We have more customer stories than we can tell!

We're hiring our first Senior Compliance Manager to own Retell's security and compliance program end to end. You'll report directly to the founder and work closely with Engineering and Sales. Compliance unlocks our enterprise and healthcare deals, so your work has a direct line to revenue.

KEY RESPONSIBILITY

This hire owns an audit-ready compliance program that enterprise customers trust.

Run SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, and ISO 27001 programs end to end, including auditors and the GRC platform

Answer security questionnaires and RFPs quickly and keep the trust center current

Own policies, vendor risk, and training, and track new rules that affect voice AI

Join enterprise sales calls to answer security and compliance questions

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

Must have

4+ years in compliance, GRC, or security audit

You have personally owned at least one SOC 2 Type II audit

Experience at a VC-backed SaaS/AI company or a Big 4/audit firm doing SOC 2 or ISO work

Nice to have

CISA, CISM, or CRISC certification

Hands-on with Vanta or Drata

HIPAA experience with healthcare customers

HOW WE EVALUATE

We care less about checkboxes and more about:

Precision in controls, evidence, and documentation

Clear answers to customer security teams

Working with engineers without slowing them down

Spotting risks before an auditor or customer does

YOU MIGHT THRIVE IF

You'd rather fix a gap early than explain it to an auditor

You can explain control to both an engineer and a CISO

You want to build a compliance program, not maintain one
