• Build vendor risk management programs: Create standardized vendor compliance questionnaires and vetting processes; audit key vendors for compliance with company standards on IP protection and anti-corruption.

• Review and negotiate licensing agreements: Manage open-source software (OSS) compliance to ensure developers follow third-party license obligations; review and negotiate author/developer agreements, software licensing agreements, and other commercial documents to ensure compliance with company IP policies and applicable law.

• Vendor risk management proficiency: You're experienced with vendor risk management tools, compliance screening software (Descartes Visual Compliance, World-Check, or similar), and automating due diligence workflows.
