Life360 has more than 500 (and growing!) remote-first employees. For more information, please visit life360.com . Life360 is a Remote-First company, which means a remote work environment will be the primary experience for all employees. All positions, unless otherwise specified, can be performed remotely (within the US) regardless of any specified location above.  We are AI Native We are building an AI native company where AI is an integral part of how we build and operate. AI tool usage during interviews varies by role. You may be asked to demonstrate proficiency with AI tools, discuss how you leverage AI, or complete interview exercises without AI assistance. Your Recruiter will provide clear guidance as you move through the interview process. Undisclosed use of AI not previously discussed with or approved by your Recruiter may impact your candidacy. About The Team The Information Security and Technology team is responsible for keeping Life360 safe — our systems, our employees, and the tens of millions of families who trust us with their location data. That obligation is the starting point. How we meet it is what makes this team different. We are builders. Security controls that don't get used aren't controls. Compliance programs that create friction without reducing risk aren't programs. We build things that work in production, earn adoption from engineering teams, and get better over time — and we use AI to do it at a scale a traditional team couldn't. We're also at an inflection point. Life360 is deploying agentic systems into how we build and operate, and the security and governance implications of that are still being worked out — by us, and by the industry. The threat surface is expanding. The compliance frameworks are catching up. The people on this team aren't waiting for either. About the Job Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) has been on a slow progression from audit binders and manual evidence collection toward policy as code, continuous control testing, and compliance infrastructure that generates its own proof. We're hiring someone already living at that frontier — and ready to push past it. Life360 is mid-transformation into an AI-native company, which means this role has two jobs running in parallel. The first is building the technical foundation of a modern GRC program: policies version-controlled in Git, controls that self-test, evidence generated by integrations rather than collected by humans, and a TPRM program that reflects how we actually use third parties. SOC 2, ISO 27001, and SOX anchor this work. The second job is harder and less charted. As Life360 deploys agentic systems into how we build and operate, the policy and control landscape is shifting in real time. Major frameworks are actively working out how to account for autonomous agents, and new control sets are emerging faster than the regulations that require them. You'll anticipate new policy requirements, adapt existing controls, and ensure our governance architecture is ready before the auditors ask. We use AI tools as a professional standard on this team. Here's what that means in practice. Ai-Native Daily use: You use AI tools for real, substantive work — analysis, drafting, automation, code, investigations, evidence gathering.  Judgment and ownership: AI-generated work gets the same scrutiny you'd give any human-produced artifact. You're accountable for everything you ship. Domain-specific judgment: You know where AI is the wrong tool. Sensitive data handling, attacker-controlled inputs, agents with production access, and privileged identity changes all need careful guardrails — and you can articulate where AI helps, where it hurts, and where it needs a human in the loop. Leverage: When AI is working well, you take on problems that would otherwise require a larger team. We hire people who use that leverage to ship better outcomes, not just faster ones. Continuous learning: The tooling moves fast. You stay current, share what works with the team, and speak up when something would meaningfully change how we operate. The US-based salary range for this position is $115,500 to $213,000. We take into consideration an individual's background and experience in determining final salary - therefore, base pay offered may vary considerably depending on geographic location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. The compensation package includes a wide range of medical, dental, vision, financial, and other benefits, as well as equity. What You’ll Do Own the governance framework for Life360's agentic systems. The major compliance frameworks are still figuring out how to account for autonomous agents. Define the policies, control sets, and compliance posture that govern how agents are built and deployed at Life360 — and build ahead of the regulation. Take an agentic approach to GRC itself. Automate evidence collection, draft control narratives, triage vendor questionnaires — use AI and internal tooling to do the work humans shouldn't be doing manually. Write the integrations and pipelines that make it real. Know where AI creates leverage, where it introduces ris
