- Collaborate with Security, Architecture, and Cloud Engineering teams to deliver scalable, secure, and resilient identity and collaboration platforms.
Planning & Governance
- Develop and manage multi-year strategic plans for technology upgrades, cloud migrations, and service enhancements.
- Participate in IT planning activities and align engineering initiatives with organizational goals.
- Plan and manage the engineering budget, including hardware/software investments and resource allocation.
Audit & Compliance
- Ensure that systems and practices meet internal policies and regulatory compliance requirements (e.g., SOX, OSFI, ISO 27001).
- Lead or support technical aspects of audit responses, control documentation, and remediation plans.
- Collaborate closely with Risk, Audit, and Security teams to maintain strong governance posture.
Project Oversight
- Provide oversight and technical leadership for engineering components of infrastructure and security projects.

- Strong expertise in Microsoft Entra ID, Microsoft 365 services, and Active Directory architecture.

- Experience with budget management and strategic technology planning.
- Familiarity with audit frameworks and compliance requirements in the financial sector.
- Excellent interpersonal, communication, and stakeholder engagement skills.
