Strong knowledge of IT risks, controls, and audit methodologies, including ITGCs.
Demonstrated ability to assess unfamiliar systems, processes, or control environments and develop appropriate audit procedures.
Experience developing risk/control matrices, audit programs, testing documentation, and audit workpapers.
Strong analytical, investigative, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.
