Partner with technology and cybersecurity teams to strengthen controls, policies, standards, and governance processes aligned to industry frameworks (e.g., NIST) and regulatory requirements (e.g., BMA, NYDFS, SOX).
Evaluate IT governance and compliance processes to support ongoing program maturity and operational effectiveness.
Develop and enhance cybersecurity metrics, KPIs, and executive reporting to support governance and risk-informed decision making.
Provide risk advisory support to technology and business stakeholders on governance, control, and compliance considerations.

Contribute to the development and operationalization of AI governance standards, controls, and risk management practices.
Monitor adherence to AI governance requirements, including documentation, control evidence, and risk management procedures.
Support internal and external audit inquiries related to AI usage, data governance, and technology risk oversight.

Third-Party & Vendor Risk Management

Perform technology and cybersecurity due diligence assessments for key vendors and third parties, including review of SOC 1 and SOC 2 reports.
Monitor third-party risk ratings and coordinate remediation or follow-up activities related to identified concerns.
Partner with business and technology teams to evaluate vendor risk exposure and strengthen third-party governance practices.
Respond to client, partner, and vendor security assessments and questionnaires, clearly communicating Athene’s security controls and governance practices.

Audit & Regulatory Compliance

Serve as a key liaison for technology risk, audit, and regulatory activities, helping streamline evidence collection, remediation tracking, and control maturity efforts.
Partner with Internal Audit, External Audit, and Technology teams to support technology audits and SOX IT control testing.
Track and manage remediation activities related to audit findings, risk assessments, and compliance initiatives.
Monitor evolving cybersecurity and technology regulations and support readiness efforts across the organization.

Cybersecurity Program Support

Partner with cybersecurity teams to track vulnerability remediation efforts and support enterprise risk reduction initiatives.
Coordinate and facilitate cyber incident response exercises, disaster recovery activities, and tabletop simulations.
Support the enterprise security awareness program, including annual training initiatives and phishing simulation activities.
Develop governance, risk, and compliance educational materials to increase awareness and strengthen risk culture across the organization.

Tools & Process Enablement

Maintain and enhance Athene’s GRC platform and supporting workflows as the program evolves.
Identify opportunities to improve processes, reporting, automation, and control visibility across governance and compliance activities.
Collaborate with technology leadership, cybersecurity teams, and risk management stakeholders to develop and track remediation action plans and strategic initiatives.

Qualifications and Experience:

Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Management Information Systems, Computer Science, Cybersecurity, or related field (or equivalent experience) and 5+ years of experience in IT risk management, cybersecurity governance, IT audit, GRC, compliance, consulting, or professional services environments.
