Build and lead a new engineering team in Noida that will own and operate the tools required for Microsoft’s Consumer Commerce engineering teams to execute and evidence SOX compliance controls across existing and future systems. You will take immediate ownership of existing internal systems/tools and drive their operational health, reliability, and auditor-ready reporting. Over time, you will guide the team to engineer new capabilities as requirements evolve, ensuring security, privacy, and compliance are embedded by design. This role blends people leadership with strong technical direction, partnering closely with engineering, compliance, and audit stakeholders. Your work will enable scalable, repeatable control execution and evidence generation at enterprise scale.
Job Responsibility:
Provide technical and people leadership for a new team responsible for SOX compliance tooling, including hiring, onboarding, coaching, and performance development
Own execution and prioritization across taking over existing systems/tools and delivering new capabilities as requirements evolve
Define architecture and drive design reviews for scalable, reliable, and secure distributed systems that support SOX control execution and evidence generation
Ensure operational excellence: on-call readiness, operational health metrics, incident response, and continuous improvements to reliability and resiliency
Build security monitoring, auditing, and reporting capabilities that enable transparency, accountability, and continuous compliance at global scale
Implement robust control mechanisms aligned to access/change/operations controls while meeting regulatory, security, privacy, and SOX requirements
Partner with cross-functional stakeholders across engineering, compliance, and audit to define requirements and deliver auditor-ready artifacts
Contribute to long-term technical strategy and roadmap, ensuring compliance is embedded by design
Maintain a high engineering bar through coding standards, testing practices, code reviews, AI adoption, and maintainable design
Use data-driven insights to improve governance workflows and reduce toil for engineering teams executing controls
Requirements:
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related technical field, and 9+ years of hands-on software engineering experience
3+ years of technical leadership experience (e.g., engineering manager, team lead, or equivalent), including mentoring and driving execution across multiple workstreams
Proven ability to design, build, debug, and operate distributed systems with a strong focus on reliability, security, and privacy
Hands-on coding experience in one or more of: C#, Java, JavaScript, Python, and/or React
Experience with data platforms and services such as Synapse, Azure Data Explorer (ADX), Cosmos DB, and/or SQL
Ability to meet Microsoft, customer, and/or government security screening requirements, including successful completion of the Microsoft Cloud Background Check upon hire and every two years thereafter
Nice to have:
Experience building compliance-driven solutions that support evidence collection, auditing, and reporting workflows
Track record of establishing operational processes (e.g., operational readiness, monitoring, and incident response) for business-critical services
Experience partnering with compliance and audit stakeholders to translate control requirements into engineering deliverables
Experience using data-driven insights and/or AI/ML approaches to improve governance workflows
