Why Socure?

At Socure, we’re on a mission—to verify 100% of good identities in real time and eliminate identity fraud from the internet.

Using predictive analytics and advanced machine learning trained on billions of signals to power RiskOS™, Socure has created the most accurate identity verification and fraud prevention platform in the world. Trusted by thousands of leading organizations—from top banks and fintechs to government agencies—we solve real, high-impact problems at scale. Come join us!

About the Role

Socure is expanding its government affairs presence in Washington, D.C., and we're looking for a sharp, policy-savvy Government Affairs Manager to help drive our advocacy strategy with Congress, federal agencies, and industry coalitions. You’ll work cross-functionally with legal, product, comms, and GTM teams to help shape the policy environment that supports Socure’s mission to verify 100% of good identities in real time.

While Socure is a fully remote company, this role will require frequent in-person engagement with stakeholders across the D.C. area, including Capitol Hill, federal agencies, and industry events.

What You’ll Do
  • Drive Socure’s federal advocacy strategy, building relationships across Congress, federal agencies, and the White House.

  • Serve as a trusted advisor on public policy issues impacting identity, cybersecurity, AI, financial services, and procurement.

  • Lead engagement with policymakers, regulators, and trade associations to advance Socure’s interests and shape regulatory outcomes.

  • Monitor, analyze, and provide actionable insights on key legislative and regulatory developments.

  • Coordinate across internal teams to align policy goals with product, compliance, and business development priorities.

  • Prepare briefing materials, talking points, and policy communications for internal and external stakeholders.

  • Represent Socure in meetings, hearings, roundtables, and industry events.

What You Bring
  • 4–7 years of experience in public policy, government relations, or legislative affairs—ideally with time spent on Capitol Hill, in a federal agency, or in a regulated tech/fintech environment.

  • Working knowledge of federal legislative and regulatory processes, especially related to technology, financial services, identity, or privacy.

  • Exceptional communication and relationship-building skills with bipartisan credibility.

  • Strong analytical skills and the ability to translate complex policy into clear, actionable guidance.

  • A proactive, self-starting mindset and the ability to thrive in a fast-moving, cross-functional environment.

Bonus Points
  • Experience with federal procurement, AML/KYC, or NIST frameworks.

  • Background in identity verification, AI governance, or digital trust policy.

Socure is an equal opportunity employer and values diversity of all kinds at our company. We do not discriminate based on race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
