About John Chadwick

I build \"Policy as Data\" ecosystems for mission-critical environments. With a 20-year career rooted in the high-stakes world of Part 121 aviation safety, I specialize in translating complex regulatory requirements from FAA OpsSpecs to ISO 27001:2022 into automated, auditable system logic.My approach is driven by Systems Thinking and the principles of Just Culture. Whether architecting Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) programs or engineering GRC workflows in the Atlassian suite, my goal is to move organizations beyond reactive compliance toward proactive Mission Assurance.
