Proficiency in creating clear, concise documentation of current processes, risks, mitigations, and proposed improvements.
Deep understanding of Segregation of Duties (SoD), access risk analysis, user access reviews/certifications, and IT General Controls in the context of regulatory compliance (e.g., SOX, GDPR, HIPAA, PCI).
Experience working with cloud-based GRC, IGA, or access governance solutions, including integration with major ERP, HCM, or CRM systems.
Familiarity with audit preparation, control evidence gathering, risk quantification, and reporting for auditors or internal compliance teams.

Regularly monitor customer health metrics (module usage, report execution, time in application, etc.) and share insights with relevant internal teams to support renewals, expansions, and proactive engagement.
Deliver remote services to new and existing customers, including configuration guidance, onboarding to Fastpath modules, training on audit workflows, SoD rulesets, and reporting tools.
Engage swiftly with customers to resolve high-priority issues related to access data accuracy, certification campaigns, risk quantification, or integration with business applications.
Track product updates, new features, emerging compliance requirements, and potential impacts; proactively communicate changes to customers and advocate for their needs in product roadmap discussions with Engineering and Product Management.
Conduct regular review sessions to validate platform configurations for alignment with audit/compliance objectives.
Document customer environments, access profiles, risk mitigations, and control evidence; share details with internal support and engineering teams to enable faster root-cause analysis and resolution.
Coordinate participation in early access programs for new Fastpath releases, identify opportunities to influence product direction, and support beta testing/validation focused on audit and compliance use cases.
Subject to travel and safety restrictions, visit customer sites (primarily North America) for Quarterly Business Reviews, compliance assessments, or deep-dive workshops on access governance.
