You Are
You have spent years in compliance and risk management. You have learned that good compliance work is not about checking boxes; it is about understanding where the real risk lies and building systems that actually prevent problems before they grow. You think in controls, not just policies. You know the difference between a third-party review that surfaces meaningful red flags and one that just generates paperwork.
What You'll Be Doing
- Conduct third-party due diligence reviews using platforms like Exiger, analyze risk findings, escalate issues as appropriate, recommend mitigation strategies, support onboarding and renewals, and drive process improvements.
- Perform risk-based monitoring and testing of key compliance controls across the global Ethics & Compliance (E&C) Program, track remediation efforts, and ensure controls are working in practice.
- Build and maintain dashboards using tools like Tableau or Power BI to analyze company data, identify trends, spot risks, and support leadership reporting and decision-making.
- Review and adjudicate preapproval requests, including business courtesies, conflicts of interest, and university tool donations, applying sound judgment and escalating risks when needed.
- Apply AI in practical ways to automate workflows, strengthen analysis, and support more effective compliance monitoring and reporting.
- Support the development and execution of the global E&C Program, including anti-bribery and anti-corruption (ABAC), anti-money laundering, and antitrust compliance initiatives.
- Support risk assessments (ABAC, third-party, geographic) and translate findings into actionable program improvements.
- Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders across Legal, Finance, Internal Audit, HR, and the business to embed compliance controls and promote a culture of integrity.
The Impact You Will Have
- You will help scale a global E&C Program that protects Synopsys from regulatory and reputational risk across more than 30,000 employees and hundreds of third-party relationships.
- Your due diligence work will help surface risks early, preventing issues before they escalate into investigations or regulatory exposure.
- The dashboards and data insights you build will give leadership visibility into compliance trends and help inform strategic decisions about where to invest resources.
- Your risk assessments and control testing will identify gaps and help drive remediation efforts that strengthen the program over time.
- You will help embed a culture of integrity across the business by partnering with stakeholders who rely on your judgment and guidance.
- Your preapproval reviews will help ensure employees can engage ethically with customers, partners, and other third parties without creating unnecessary friction.
- You will contribute to a compliance function that enables the business to move quickly while staying aligned with global ABAC, antitrust, and other compliance requirements.
