Principal Associate, International Risk, Strategy & Technology Enablement- Enterprise Services Risk

We are hiring! The Enterprise Services Risk organization is expanding with a focus on attracting innovative, pioneering, collaborative, and highly skilled professionals. We operate at the forefront of risk management, providing support for novel and developing technologies, as well as critical business strategies. Diverse perspectives and experiences are valued as we work to redefine the financial sector.

As a Principal Associate on the International Risk Team, you will serve as a technical specialist driving the architecture and data governance foundations required for secure global operations. You will provide expert guidance on how international business initiatives align with enterprise risk appetites and regulatory requirements - translating complex policy landscapes into actionable technical and data requirements.

In this position, you will be responsible for designing the technical and data-driven blueprints that enable secure global scaling. You will bring a deep background in technical risk identification to evaluate proposed infrastructure and data flows, and you will build the governance standards that allow teams to move faster without compromising risk posture.

In this role, you will:

  • Lead the design and development of comprehensive risk management frameworks that govern international technical architecture and global data management.

  • Apply expertise in technical risk identification to review architectural diagrams and proposed network flows for Cloud, VDI, and Zero Trust environments, providing risk-based guidance and ensuring alignment with international standards.

  • Translate international risk policies and regulations into technical requirements and architectural blueprints that engineering teams can execute.

  • Guide the development of data governance frameworks for international operations, including data classification taxonomies, sovereignty rules, and tagging standards that enable downstream automation and enforcement.

  • Define enforceable standards and procedures for the data lifecycle in alignment with global privacy laws, such as GDPR, and internal data security frameworks.

  • Act as a technical consultant to Tech and Cyber partners, providing the technical rationale for risk requirements and identifying cross-functional dependencies.

  • Develop the standards for secure international infrastructure, including connectivity access patterns and hardware/software lifecycle management.

  • Leverage AI and automation tools to accelerate risk analysis workflows, identify patterns in complex datasets, and scale technical review processes.

  • Synthesize complex concepts (e.g., architectures, data governance rules) into strategic updates for senior leadership (up to VP level).

Basic Qualifications:

  • High School Diploma, GED or Equivalent Certification

  • At least 3 years of experience in Risk Management, Process Management, Project Management, or a combination of these

  • At least 2 years of experience with technical documentation, data visualization, or technical requirement definition

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's Degree or Military Experience

  • At least 3 years of experience supporting, partnering, and interacting with internal business clients

  • At least 4 years of experience in risk management or technology risk management

  • At least 3 years of experience performing technical or design-level risk assessments, including identifying threats and vulnerabilities within complex network or cloud infrastructures

  • At least 5 years of experience in project, program, or portfolio management

  • Experience developing risk or governance frameworks for Cloud Security, Zero Trust, or Network Security

  • Experience in Data Governance, including the development of data taxonomies and classification standards

  • Familiarity with International Data Privacy regulations (e.g., GDPR) and international market expansion risks

  • Familiarity with AI/ML concepts and experience using Gen AI tools to enhance analysis, documentation, or risk assessment workflows

  • Risk or Technical Certifications (e.g., CRISC, CISM, CIPP, CISSP, or PMP)
