Security & Compliance Analyst

Our team of management, technology, and creative services consultants work collaboratively with industry experts who bring deep experience and expertise to create transformational business solutions. We believe complex challenges and multi-faceted opportunities call for multi-disciplinary approaches and that's how we work. We bring industry best practices from the private sector to government and from government to the private sector to transform healthcare. Edera is an L3C (a variation of a limited liability company) that places "purpose before profit;" a social enterprise venture.

Profits beyond our business sustainability goals are reinvested into communities or clients.

We are seeking a Security & Compliance Analyst to support the organization's compliance with CMMC Level 2 requirements. This role focuses on documentation accuracy, monitoring, evidence collection, and ongoing improvement of cybersecurity processes. Remote work options are available.
