Job Title: IT SOX Compliance Lead - Oracle

Location:
New Brighton, MN - onsite

APi Group is seeking a highly motivated SOX IT Compliance Lead:
Oracle with a strong background in IT SOX compliance to join the IT SOX Risk & Compliance team. The ideal candidate will have extensive experience implementing, operating, and maintaining Oracle IT General Controls (ITGCs) and IT application controls (ITACs) to support SOX compliance, including their design, ongoing effectiveness, and periodic validation. This role focuses on ensuring compliance with SOX requirements through supporting operation of controls, enhancing control frameworks, and continuous improvement in SOX compliance practices.

The focus will be on IT SOX compliance, not cybersecurity.

What You Will Do

• Assist in leading the design, implementation, and ongoing oversight of SOX-compliant IT general controls (ITGCs) and IT application controls within the Oracle landscape, ensuring controls are practical, scalable, and aligned to business needs.
• Assist in developing and maintaining formal documentation for Oracle-related controls, including process flows, narratives, RCMs, and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), using approved templates and ensuring clear guidance for control owners.
• Partner with control owners, IT, and Finance to translate risk and compliance requirements into Oracle configurations, workflows, and automated controls that support a sustainable SOX control environment.
• Drive remediation of SOX findings, as needed, related to Oracle by performing root cause analysis, designing control or configuration changes, coordinating with technical teams, and validating timely and effective closure of issues.
• Coordinate and perform assessments of Oracle and integrated applications in the context of SOC reports, working with external vendors and control owners to evaluate exceptions and ensure complementary user entity controls are designed and operating effectively.
• Identify and design new or enhanced ITGCs and IT application controls such as Oracle functionality, modules, or integrations are introduced, ensuring new controls remain aligned with SOX requirements and internal policies.
• Serve as a primary liaison between internal/external auditors and the Oracle/IT teams during planning, walkthroughs, and testing, facilitating clear communication, issue resolution, and a consistent understanding of the control environment.
• Manage collection and delivery of Oracle-related audit evidence, ensuring completeness, accuracy, and alignment with defined SOX controls, and support control owners in preparing for recurring audit cycles.
• Establish and maintain a steady-state governance model for Oracle SOX controls, including calendars for key control activities, monitoring routines, and training for control owners to support long-term compliance.

Basic Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in information systems, Information Technology, Business Administration or a related field.
• 5-7+ years of IT Compliance experience.
• Provided SOX oversight for Oracle IT general controls and application controls. Implementation experience preferred.
• Strong background in Oracle Security compliance requirements.
• In-depth knowledge of SOX compliance standards and frameworks.
• Strong understanding of IT general controls, audit processes, and risk mitigation strategies.
• Proficiency in documenting processes and controls with limited information and guidance.
• Experience collaborating with external vendors and evaluating SOC reports.
• Ability to work effectively in teams and independently in a fast-paced environment.
• Certification such as CISA, CPA, CISSP, CISM or relevant equivalents (preferred)
