• Relevant professional certifications such as CISA, CISSP, CRISC are advantageous.

Responsabilités

• Lead and execute end-to-end technology audits covering resilient architecture, technology infrastructure, IT service management and technology risk governance.
• Independently assess whether technology architectures are designed and operated to support availability, recoverability, fault tolerance and continuity of critical business services.
• Evaluate resilient architecture patterns, including active-active and active-passive designs, availability zones, dependency management, automated failover, recovery mechanisms, capacity management and elimination of single points of failure.
• Assess the adequacy of architecture governance, including architecture standards, design reviews, technology risk assessments, exception management and approval of residual risks.
• Review technology risk management practices commonly overseen by Line 2, including risk identification, control assessment, risk acceptance, key risk indicators, thematic reviews, issue management and independent challenge of technology risk decisions.
