О Opportunity

This is not a traditional GRC hire. The Tech Governance Office is looking for someone who combines the governance judgment of a seasoned compliance professional with the drive of a forward-deployed engineer — someone who closes gaps by shipping solutions, navigates ambiguity without hand-holding, and operates with the urgency of a startup and the rigor of a regulated financial institution.

You will own complex cross-functional work streams independently — coordinating across Engineering, Legal, Product, and Finance — while managing external auditors and regulators. Strong written and verbal communication in both English and Mandarin is a meaningful advantage in this role. AI tooling is not optional; it is how you work.

Кто вы

• Self-directed driver — You run cross-functional work streams without being managed. Ambiguity is a starting point, not a blocker.
• AI-native operator — You already use AI to do more, faster — and you raise the floor for the teams around you.
• Clear communicator — You earn trust across regulators, auditors, and C-suite through precision and consistency — in any room.

Culture Fit

Pace

Standards

Startup velocity — Decisions move fast. Priorities shift. You ship, iterate, and adapt — without waiting for perfect conditions or top-down direction.

Financial institution rigor — Audit trails matter. Regulators scrutinize. The bar for accuracy, documentation, and accountability is institutional-grade — always.

> The tension between these two is not a bug — it is the job. We are looking for someone who holds both without compromise.

Что предстоит делать

• Independently lead audit remediation programs — assess gaps, develop structured plans, and drive verified closure across engineering, product, legal, and operations without escalation dependency.
• Own cross-functional governance work streams — set milestones, coordinate accountability, and remove blockers across departments with limited management oversight.
• Conduct IT security and architecture governance reviews — assess whether systems and processes meet applicable standards, and issue findings with clear ownership and remediation timelines.
• Build and maintain the policy estate — draft, refine, and operationalize IT governance policies and procedures; translate regulatory requirements into implementation-ready guidance for first-line teams.
• Lead regulator and auditor engagement — serve as the primary coordination interface for external audit and regulatory correspondence, representing the Tech Governance Office with credibility and precision.
• Deploy AI to accelerate compliance operations — prototype and scale AI-assisted workflows for evidence collection, control monitoring, audit response, and policy generation; drive team-wide adoption.
• Deliver Tech Governance-level reporting — produce governance dashboards and executive briefs on remediation status, risk exposure, and regulatory posture, independently and to publication standard.
• Track the regulatory horizon — monitor evolving requirements across active jurisdictions, translate changes into prioritized internal action, and brief senior leadership proactively.

What We Look For In You

AI Adoption & Application — Must Have

• Active daily use of AI tools to accelerate compliance and governance work — demonstrated practice with measurable output impact, not theoretical awareness.
• Ability to identify, build, and scale AI-assisted workflows within a Tech Governance office context — evidence automation, policy generation, audit response, or control monitoring.
• Working knowledge of AI governance and risk — sufficient to contribute to internal AI oversight frameworks and assess AI-related compliance obligations.

Independent Cross-Functional Leadership — Must Have

• Demonstrated ability to own and drive complex, multi-stakeholder work streams independently — setting direction, coordinating accountability, and delivering outcomes without management escalation.
• Track record of influencing without authority across engineering, legal, finance, and operations in a fast-moving environment.
• Comfortable operating under ambiguity and shifting priorities while maintaining institutional-grade standards for accuracy and documentation.

Experience

• 8+ years in IT audit, risk management, compliance, or security governance
• 3+ years leading governance programs at a large-scale internet, financial services, or crypto firm
• Exposure to IPO-readiness or high-scrutiny regulatory examination programs preferred

Frameworks & Standards

• ISO 27001, SOC 1/2, PCI-DSS, COBIT, NIST — deep working knowledge
• GDPR and APAC data protection regimes
• Crypto and blockchain-specific compliance risk awareness a strong asset

Engineering Sensibility

• Able to read and interpret code, architecture diagrams, and technical design documents without engineer-translation dependency
• Familiarity with cloud environments (Alibaba Cloud, AWS, GCP) and associated security tooling
