MalaysiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m an Information Security GRC professional with 4+ years of experience in Security Governance and GRC across FinTech and banking environments. I execute and assess SOX-aligned IT General Controls (ITGC), leading User Access Review (UAR) activities, evaluating control design and operating effectiveness, and driving remediation with stakeholders.
At MoneyLion, I coordinate end-to-end UAR cycles across ~40–50+ systems per quarter, using Okta and system-level evidence (e.g., termination status, SSO group removal, and last login activity) to validate access and identify unauthorized access risks. I also improve GRC efficiency by developing standardized guidelines and onboarding documentation for control owners, and I leverage AI tools like Claude, ChatGPT, and Glean to accelerate documentation and strengthen audit communication.
