Job description

Is this role right for you?

In this role you will:
  • Own the design, implementation, and ongoing evolution of the cloud controls and governance framework, ensuring alignment with regulatory, risk, security, and audit requirements applicable to financial services.
  • Partner with independent risk, compliance, and control functions to establish and maintain a comprehensive, well‑defined control inventory for cloud infrastructure and platform services.
  • Lead the automation and enforcement of controls across the cloud lifecycle, embedding guardrails into engineering platforms, pipelines, and reference architectures.
  • Build and lead a high‑performing team of 3–4 specialists responsible for translating control requirements into scalable engineering solutions and reusable frameworks.
  • Collaborate with product and platform Technical Program Managers to ensure controls are captured early in design and consistently applied through build, deployment, and operations.
  • Define and oversee engineering‑led governance mechanisms, including dashboards, interfaces, and metrics that provide real‑time visibility into control effectiveness and compliance posture.
  • Influence cloud strategy and platform roadmaps to ensure risk and control considerations are addressed without compromising developer productivity or time to market.
  • Support internal and external audits, regulatory inquiries, and management reviews by providing clear evidence of automated control design and operation.
  • Establish standards, policies, and patterns that promote secure‑by‑design and compliant‑by‑default cloud engineering practices.

Do you have the skills that will enable you to succeed in this role? We’d love to work with you if you have:

  • Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Engineering, or a related technical discipline, or equivalent experience.
  • Extensive experience in cloud engineering, platform engineering, or cloud security within largescale, regulated environments.
  • Demonstrated experience designing and implementing automated controls, policy‑as‑code, and governance frameworks across IaaS and PaaS platforms.
  • Proven people‑leadership experience, including building and leading small, specialized technical teams.
  • Experience in financial services, capital markets, or other highly regulated industries.
  • Deep familiarity with public cloud platforms and modern control enforcement techniques (e.g., policy‑as‑code, CI/CD integration, cloud security posture management).
  • Experience engaging with regulators, auditors, and second‑line risk functions on technology control matters.
  • Strong executive communication skills with the ability to influence senior technology and risk leaders.

What's in it for you?

  • Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Allyship - We strive to create an inclusive culture where every employee is empowered to reach their fullest potential, respected for who they are, and are embraced through bias-free practices and inclusive values across Scotiabank.
