• Maintain an accurate inventory of systems and tools supporting financial reporting and apply risk-based prioritization to control implementation and testing.
• Lead internal and external IT audits, SOX reviews, and control assessments by facilitating walkthroughs, coordinating evidence requests, supporting testing, and communicating progress to leadership.
• Partner with control owners to identify root causes, design remediation plans, validate corrective actions, and prevent recurring findings.
• Introduce automation and intelligent engineering practices into compliance workflows, including automated evidence collection, analytics, and continuous controls monitoring.
• Help evaluate and guide the responsible adoption of AI-enabled technologies in alignment with compliance requirements, control objectives, and technology roadmaps.
• Define and communicate control architecture and requirements while ensuring controls remain preventive, repeatable, scalable, and sustainable as technology environments evolve.
• Evaluate change management and SDLC controls across CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code environments, and automated access workflows.
• Prepare and maintain high-quality compliance documentation, including narratives, flowcharts, risk-and-control matrices, and testing workpapers.
• Partner with Engineering, Product, Security, Finance, and Compliance teams, coach control owners, resolve issues constructively, and promote a culture of disciplined innovation and continuous improvement.

• Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology, Accounting, Management Information Systems, Finance, or a related field.
• 7–10 years of progressive experience in IT audit, internal controls, technology risk management, or a related discipline, including experience with supervisory or leadership responsibilities.
