- Process Innovation & Automation: Identify, design, and implement workflow automation opportunities and integration of new compliance solutions. Champion technology-driven process improvements to maximize efficiency in audit, investigation, and reporting activities.

- Continuous Program Improvement: Monitor, analyze, and communicate emerging regulatory requirements, threat landscape changes, and best practices in cloud security and compliance. Proactively adapt Nexus’s compliance programs to maintain leading-edge posture.
