About the role

Senior IT Auditor to lead high-impact audits across diverse Amazon businesses, focusing on technology risk at the intersection of technology, risk, and business strategy. Role requires translating technical detail into business impact and partnering with senior stakeholders to drive remediation and improvements.

Responsibilities

  • Lead audits end-to-end: Scope, plan, execute, and deliver multiple audits across different business areas, balancing depth with efficiency.
  • Understand the business behind the systems: Develop a clear view of how products and platforms operate, generate value, and scale — and where failures would have the greatest impact.
  • Assess risk in context: Evaluate areas such as access management, data security, system reliability, and development practices — focusing on what truly matters to the business rather than applying controls mechanically.
  • Analyze data to inform conclusions: Use data and analytical thinking to identify trends, validate controls, and support risk assessments.
  • Translate technical and business issues into business impact: Clearly articulate how risks affect customers, revenue, regulatory exposure, or operational performance.
  • Influence and partner with stakeholders: Work directly with senior engineers, product leaders, and business executives to align on risks and drive practical, scalable solutions.
  • Drive meaningful outcomes: Ensure audit findings lead to real improvements, not just reports — tracking remediation and holding a high bar for closure.
  • Support and mentor others: Help develop junior team members and contribute to raising the overall effectiveness of the team.
