SOX-savvy IT auditor with a record of enhancing audit readiness and reducing control deficiencies across systems
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I am a dedicated IT auditor with a strong background in SOX and PCAOB-guided audits for multinational clients, specializing in ITAC, ITGC, and IPE reporting. My expertise spans critical GITC areas such as Access Management, Change Management, Backup & Recovery, and Logical Security Controls.
At Genpact and KPMG, I led compliance testing, walkthroughs, and control evaluations—identifying and remediating key gaps that led to a 30% reduction in control deficiencies over six months. I also spearheaded Access Management initiatives that reduced access-related audit findings by 40%, significantly improving audit readiness and risk posture. My contributions earned multiple KPMG Kudos awards (Q1 FY23, Q2 FY22) and the Bright Beginnings Award.
I thrive in both independent and collaborative environments, delivering timely, high-quality audit engagements. I’ve contributed to RPA and IT internal audits, and I’m passionate about leveraging technology to enhance compliance and governance. I’m especially interested in roles that offer exposure to emerging tech, cross-functional collaboration, and opportunities to drive measurable impact in risk and control frameworks.
