Experience with policy-as-code and infrastructure-as-code (for example Terraform and cloud policy frameworks).
Experience building event-driven architectures and telemetry pipelines for control evidence and compliance reporting.
Experience integrating third-party security/compliance products into enterprise platforms.
Knowledge of financial-services regulatory and technology risk frameworks.
Experience applying AI-assisted tooling to security engineering and continuous compliance workflows.
