  • Ensure adherence to SOC 2, ISO 27001, and internal governance standards.
  • Analyze trends and create long-term risk mitigation strategies.
  • Data, Applications & Integration Enablement

  • Support integrations between on-prem systems and cloud platforms.
  • Partner with business stakeholders to improve data visibility, analytics readiness, and automation.
  • Strengthen data quality and governance across systems.
  • Leadership & Influence

  • Lead cross-functional teams using influence, relationship‑building, and negotiation rather than formal authority.
  • Build strong partnerships across IT, operations, security, vendors, and client organizations.
  • Communicate complex technical concepts clearly to non‑technical audiences.
  • Qualifications

  • 10–15+ years of IT experience across both cloud and on‑prem environments.
