Role Overview

As an Application Controls Engineer, you will play a vital role in advancing our digital initiatives within our agile organization. Our agile model comprises two key components – Digital Capability and Digital Execution. Digital Execution focuses on aligning various missions with business objectives and fostering collaboration on a broader scale. Conversely, Digital Capability emphasizes the growth and development of individuals within specific areas of expertise. This dual framework allows us to efficiently scale agile practices while maintaining a focus 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 mechanisms within SAP and other enterprise platforms and applications. This role is essential in ensuring that 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 expertise, a thorough 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 work 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 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 controls are established for critical business processes and align with best practices.
  • Compliance and Auditing: Conduct regular audits and compliance checks within SAP and other related systems to identify potential vulnerabilities or non-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 with DigitalX cybersecurity teams to investigate incidents, implement corrective actions, and prevent future occurrences.
  • Training and Support: Provide training and support to SAP users on GRC processes and application controls. Develop 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: Knowledge of 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: Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to identify issues, analyze complex data, and develop effective solutions.
  • Technical Proficiency: Familiarity with SAP architecture, security principles, and data protection practices. Proficiency in relevant programming languages and technologies is a plus.
  • Communication: Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to explain complex GRC concepts to non-technical stakeholders and collaborate effectively across teams.
  • Adaptability: Ability to adapt to changing regulatory environments and technology landscapes. Willingness to continuously learn and stay updated with the latest SAP GRC developments.

Working Environment

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