• Track remediation of testing exceptions and perform follow-up testing as assigned.
• Support the Fintech Financial Controls Manager in evaluating whether targeted testing adequately addresses the identified control or assurance gap.
• Coordinate with Coastal’s Partner Risk and Internal Control testing team when SOC, ITGC, CUEC, transaction, or account-level testing matters require additional assessment or support.
