Role Overview

As an Application Controls Engineer, you will play a pivotal role in advancing our digital initiatives within our agile organization. Our agile framework comprises two key components – Digital Capability and Digital Execution. Digital Execution focuses on aligning various missions with business objectives and facilitating broader collaboration. Conversely, Digital Capability emphasizes the growth and development of individuals within specialized areas of expertise. This dual approach allows us to efficiently scale agile practices while concentrating on both product development and individual skill enhancement.

The Application Controls or SAP GRC (Governance, Risk, and Compliance) Engineer is a specialized position within DigitalX, concentrating on the design, implementation, and maintenance of control systems and compliance frameworks within SAP and other Enterprise Platforms. This role is essential for ensuring that our Enterprise Platforms and Applications are secure, compliant with regulatory standards, and aligned with the organization's risk management strategies. It requires a combination of technical SAP knowledge, a comprehensive understanding of governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) principles, and the ability to apply these in a practical, business-oriented context.

You will be at the forefront of implementing innovative solutions and will have the opportunity to engage with cutting-edge technologies in your field.

Key Responsibilities

  • SAP GRC Configuration and Management: Configure, manage, and optimize SAP GRC modules, including Access Control, Process Control, and Risk Management, to ensure effective governance, risk mitigation, and compliance with both internal and external regulations.
  • Application Control Implementation: Design and implement robust application controls within SAP and other systems to protect against unauthorized access, data breaches, and fraud. Ensure that controls are established for critical business processes and adhere to best practices.
  • Compliance and Auditing: Conduct regular audits and compliance assessments within SAP and other JSOX-related systems to identify potential vulnerabilities or compliance issues. Collaborate with internal and external auditors to facilitate audits and address findings.
  • Risk Assessment and Mitigation: Perform risk assessments related to SAP and other applications and GRC processes. Develop and implement strategies to mitigate identified risks and ensure that risk management practices are integrated into the Enterprise platforms and applications.
  • Incident Response and Resolution: Address security incidents and compliance breaches within SAP and other systems. Work alongside DigitalX cybersecurity teams to investigate incidents, implement corrective measures, and prevent future occurrences.
  • Training and Support: Provide training and support to SAP users regarding GRC processes and application controls. Create user guides, training materials, and support documentation to enhance understanding and compliance.
  • Continuous Improvement: Continuously monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of SAP GRC processes and controls. Recommend and implement enhancements to improve security, compliance, and efficiency.
  • Stakeholder Collaboration: Collaborate with DigitalX, business units, and external partners to ensure SAP GRC initiatives align with business objectives and technology strategies. Communicate effectively with stakeholders to provide updates and gather feedback.

Qualifications

Required:

  • Bachelor's or master's degree in a relevant field, such as Computer Science, Data Science, or Finance.
  • SAP GRC Expertise: Strong technical knowledge of SAP GRC modules and functionalities, including experience with configuration and management of Access Control, Process Control, and Risk Management.
  • Understanding of Application Controls: In-depth understanding of application control frameworks and the ability to design and implement controls within SAP to mitigate risks.
  • Risk Management and Compliance: Familiarity with risk assessment methodologies, compliance requirements (e.g., JSOX, GDPR), and the ability to apply these in the context of SAP and other relevant enterprise applications.
  • Analytical Skills: Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities, with the capacity to identify issues, analyze complex data, and develop effective solutions.
  • Technical Proficiency: Knowledge of SAP architecture, security principles, and data protection practices. Proficiency in relevant programming languages and technologies is advantageous.
  • Communication: Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to convey complex GRC concepts to non-technical stakeholders and collaborate effectively across teams.
  • Adaptability: Ability to adjust to evolving regulatory environments and technological landscapes. Willingness to continuously learn and stay informed about the latest SAP GRC developments.

Working Environment

  • This position is remote and is based in Canada.
  • At Astellas, we value work/life balance and proudly offer a hybrid working solution that allows for collaboration with colleagues in the office while also providing the flexibility to work from home. We believe this approach optimizes the most productive work environment for all employees to thrive and succeed.
