Who You Are

Self-directed driver — You run cross-functional work streams without being managed. Ambiguity is a starting point, not a blocker.

AI-native operator — You already use AI to do more, faster — and you raise the floor for the teams around you.

Clear communicator — You earn trust across regulators, auditors, and C-suite through precision and consistency — in any room.

What You’ll Be Doing

Independently lead audit remediation programs — assess gaps, develop structured plans, and drive verified closure across engineering, product, legal, and operations without escalation dependency.

Own cross-functional governance work streams — set milestones, coordinate accountability, and remove blockers across departments with limited management oversight.

Conduct IT security and architecture governance reviews — assess whether systems and processes meet applicable standards, and issue findings with clear ownership and remediation timelines.

Build and maintain the policy estate — draft, refine, and operationalize IT governance policies and procedures; translate regulatory requirements into implementation-ready guidance for first-line teams.

Lead regulator and auditor engagement — serve as the primary coordination interface for external audit and regulatory correspondence, representing the Tech Governance Office with credibility and precision.

Deploy AI to accelerate compliance operations — prototype and scale AI-assisted workflows for evidence collection, control monitoring, audit response, and policy generation; drive team-wide adoption.

Deliver Tech Governance-level reporting — produce governance dashboards and executive briefs on remediation status, risk exposure, and regulatory posture, independently and to publication standard.

Track the regulatory horizon — monitor evolving requirements across active jurisdictions, translate changes into prioritized internal action, and brief senior leadership proactively.

AI Adoption & Application — Must Have

Active daily use of AI tools to accelerate compliance and governance work — demonstrated practice with measurable output impact, not theoretical awareness.

Ability to identify, build, and scale AI-assisted workflows within a Tech Governance office context — evidence automation, policy generation, audit response, or control monitoring.

Working knowledge of AI governance and risk — sufficient to contribute to internal AI oversight frameworks and assess AI-related compliance obligations.

Independent Cross-Functional Leadership — Must Have

Demonstrated ability to own and drive complex, multi-stakeholder work streams independently — setting direction, coordinating accountability, and delivering outcomes without management escalation.

Track record of influencing without authority across engineering, legal, finance, and operations in a fast-moving environment.

Comfortable operating under ambiguity and shifting priorities while maintaining institutional-grade standards for accuracy and documentation.

Experience

8+ years in IT audit, risk management, compliance, or security governance

3+ years leading governance programs at a large-scale internet, financial services, or crypto firm

Exposure to IPO-readiness or high-scrutiny regulatory examination programs preferred
