Diné Development Corporation•Dayton, OH

About The Position

Diné Development Corporation is seeking a dedicated, detail-oriented Quality and Compliance Writer to lead the development, maintenance, and publication of company policies and procedures across multiple operational departments. The role is primarily focused on policy writing and governance: ensuring policies are clear, current, adopted by process owners, and effectively implemented across the organization. The successful candidate will have a working understanding of ISO and CMMI and how these frameworks relate to operational controls, documentation, and audit readiness. The position emphasizes establishing, communicating, and sustaining policy compliance across departments such as IT, security, HR, operations, and project teams. It requires autonomy, discipline, strong stakeholder communication, critical thinking, and workplace experience using AI tools to improve documentation quality and efficiency. The role owns the end-to-end policy lifecycle, including drafting, editing, formatting, publishing, maintenance, version control, and periodic reviews. The writer partners with department leads and process owners to gather input, clarify responsibilities, and ensure policies reflect actual work practices. They coordinate approvals, communicate updates, support implementation, translate compliance requirements into practical policies aligned with business needs and applicable frameworks, and develop supporting standards, procedures, templates, and guidance. They may occasionally support ISO/CMMI audit readiness by organizing policy documentation and evidence expectations. The role also identifies gaps, risks, and inconsistencies, recommends improvements and corrective actions, tracks action items, and follows through to closure. AI tools may be used appropriately for drafting, editing, summarization, and document or process optimization in line with company guidelines. The Dayton, Ohio location is preferred. East Coast candidates are preferred based on business need. Applicants must be authorized to work in the United States without current or future visa sponsorship. A bachelor's degree or equivalent combination of education and relevant experience is required. Compensation is competitive and depends on experience and skills.
