The role currently focuses on platforms such as ProcessUnity and/or AuditBoard, with flexibility to support evaluations and transitions to new GRC technologies as our needs evolve.
You will play a key role in translating business and regulatory requirements into scalable, automated technical solutions, working alongside InfoSec, Compliance, Legal, and IT teams to strengthen our GRC capabilities.
What you'll get to do
• Design and configure GRC solutions using ProcessUnity, AuditBoard, and other potential platforms.
• Translate risk, compliance, and audit requirements into platform configurations and workflow automations.
• Partner with cross-functional teams to ensure GRC tools align with organizational objectives and controls.
• Support proof-of-concept (PoC) efforts and assist in evaluating future platform options.
• Contribute to reusable templates, documentation, and best practices for platform configurations and data flows.
• Assist in platform integrations with systems like ERP, IAM, or ticketing tools using APIs or connectors.
• Stay informed on regulatory trends (e.g., SOX, NIST, ISO 27001, GDPR) and support solution alignment.
• Provide support and occasional mentorship to junior engineers or analysts.
Skills and experience we value
• 5+ years experience implementing GRC solutions with hands-on experience on ProcessUnity, AuditBoard, or similar tools.
• Proven ability to deliver enterprise-scale GRC architectures and solutions.
• Deep understanding of risk management, compliance, and audit lifecycle processes.
• Experience with API integrations, scripting, and data analytics/reporting within GRC contexts.
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, bridging technical and business perspectives.
• Comfortable working in a dynamic environment with evolving technology platforms.
What would make you really stand out:
• Relevant certifications (CRISC, CISA, CISM, CGEIT).
• Familiarity with cloud-based GRC deployments and other platforms like ServiceNow GRC, RSA Archer, or LogicGate.
• Experience with evaluating and migrating GRC platforms.
