FOR SEED–SERIES B SAAS STARTUPS

SOC 2 & ISO 27001, without the guesswork.

I help SaaS founders turn a messy security posture into an audit-ready, enterprise-grade compliance program — built on real experience, not generic templates. So your team ships product, and your deals stop stalling on the security questionnaire.

THE PROBLEM

Your auditor isn't going to hold your hand.

Most engineering-led teams don't fail an audit because they're insecure — they fail because they can't prove they're secure, in the language an auditor needs. That gap costs more than a report. It costs deals.

Enterprise deals stall

No SOC 2 report means legal and security review freezes your biggest deal at the finish line — over and over.

Templates don't fit

Generic policy packs don't match how your stack, team, or product actually works — and auditors flag the mismatch immediately.

Engineers, distracted

Without a clear plan, your best engineers burn weeks firefighting evidence requests instead of shipping product.

HOW I HELP

A clear path from chaos to certified.

Three phases, built around your actual environment — not a checkbox exercise.

PHASE 01

Gap Assessment & Strategy

A full readiness assessment against SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria or ISO 27001 Annex A. You get a prioritized, realistic roadmap — not a 40-page report nobody reads.

  • Current-state risk & control review
  • Scope & framework recommendation
  • Prioritized remediation roadmap
MOST REQUESTED PHASE 02

Policy & Control Design

Policies and controls written for how a lean startup actually operates — sized to your team, your stack, and your risk profile. Nothing borrowed from a Fortune 500 template.

  • Tailored policy & procedure set
  • Control implementation guidance
  • Tooling & automation recommendations
PHASE 03

Audit Readiness & Support

Hands-on support through evidence collection, mock audits, and auditor liaison — from kickoff until you're holding the report or certificate.

  • Evidence collection support
  • Mock audit & remediation sprint
  • Direct auditor liaison

WHY AUDITING

I've sat on the other side of the table.

Before advising startups, I ran IT risk engagements inside a Big Four firm and led GRC programs as an in-house analyst. I know exactly what an auditor is trained to look for, how they sample evidence, and where startups typically lose points — because I used to be the one asking the questions.

That means you're not getting a generic playbook. You're getting a program built the way an auditor actually thinks — translated into something a 15-person engineering team can realistically run.
