## About the role

Firestorm is hiring a Trade Compliance Specialist to execute the day-to-day mechanics of our trade compliance program. You will be in a high-autonomy, execution-focused individual contributor role responsible for screening, licensing administration, classification intake, training delivery, audits, and recordkeeping — with the discipline required in a heavily regulated, ITAR/EAR environment.

## What they're looking for

- Perform and maintain records for restricted/denied party screening across customers, partners, vendors, and visitors, escalating any potential matches to the General Counsel and outside export counsel immediately
- Track license conditions, provisos, and reporting obligations to ensure ongoing compliance after a license is granted
- Deliver Firestorm’s export control and trade compliance training to employees, contractors, and relevant third parties using materials provided by the General Counsel and outside export counsel
- Help keep training content current as regulations or company practices change, flagging needed updates to outside export counsel
- Maintain training completion records and follow up on gaps to ensure full coverage across the workforce
- Serve as the first point of contact for employee questions on export control basics, escalating anything beyond routine guidance to the General Counsel
