• Promote compliance awareness across Technology squads, helping translate framework requirements into routine tasks that engineers and operators can execute
• Support controls automation initiatives, working with leadership to identify repetitive testing workflows that can be modernized through automated and AI-assisted tools

You Have:

• 2 to 4 years’ experience in IT compliance, audit, controls testing, or a related discipline within technology or enterprise environments
• Foundational knowledge and practical experience supporting an audit cycle end-to-end under IT SOX, ISO 27001, PCI-DSS, or SOC 2 frameworks
• Proven cross-functional coordination, comfortable partnering with Legal, Risk, Finance, Internal Audit, external auditors, and offshore testing teams simultaneously
• Able to translate compliance framework language into operator-friendly tasks, and technical findings into executive-ready summaries
• Ability to take a high-level objective and return a structured plan and shipped outcomes without extensive oversight
• Hands-on comfort with automation, analytics, and modern productivity tools
• Working understanding of how AI, automation, and intelligent workflows can reduce manual effort in compliance operations
• Bias toward simplification, standardization, and continuous improvement
• An undergraduate degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Finance, or a related field of study -OR- equivalent experience
• Audit/compliance certifications (CISA, CRISC, CISSP, ISO Lead Auditor) welcomed, but not required
