Director, Brex Integration Advisory & Oversight
About The Position
The Director, Brex Integration Advisory & Oversight will serve as the primary second-line Technical Risk Advisor and Oversight Lead for the Brex integration. This highly strategic individual contributor role spans all domains of cybersecurity, technology risk, and artificial intelligence governance. In this role, you will lead the independent second-line risk oversight for Brex’s entire integration IT footprint, including cloud and application architectures, collaboration tooling, data transfer systems, HR platforms, and AI systems. You will act as an independent advisor and a rigorous challenger—synthesizing risk assessments conducted by specialized subject matter experts across the division while leveraging your own deep technical acumen to identify gaps in first-line assessment methodologies, surface hidden risks, and challenge missing mitigations. Additionally, you will define and catalog repeatable second-line security governance standards and architectural integration review patterns to serve as the “golden” oversight blueprint for all future corporate acquisitions. A primary deliverable of this transformational role is the design and deployment of dynamic risk-tracking methodologies. These frameworks will independently measure, aggregate, and report on the state of residual risk and overall security posture at any given point in time (at minimum quarterly) to the second-line Chief Technology Risk Officer and Chief Risk Officer.
