By integrating personnel, information, and resources in a centralized setting—whether physical or virtual—the team enhances coordination and accelerates results.
This role requires expertise in IT audit controls, risk mitigation, and compliance frameworks, with a strong focus on ITAC (IT Application Controls) and ITGC (IT General Controls).

- Design, implement, and/or independently test Tests of Design (TOD) and Tests of Effectiveness (TOE) to address IT control deficiencies.
- Leverage FISCAM, NIST RMF, and related frameworks for audit testing, control reviews, and risk mitigation strategies.
- Evaluate and respond to issued findings, such as Non-Compliance Findings Reports (NFRs).
- Support corrective action planning and remediation efforts for IT audit risks.
Required Qualifications:
- Strong ability to identify and assess IT controls that mitigate ITAC/ITGC risks.
- Demonstrated experience applying FISCAM/NIST RMF (or equivalent frameworks) in IT control testing and compliance.
- Proven track record in designing and implementing—or independently testing—corrective actions to resolve IT audit findings.
- Expertise in information assurance standards, including NIST RMF, NIST 800-53, FISCAM, DoDI 8500, DoDI 8510, and SSAE-18 AT-C 320.
- Experience evaluating SOC reports to support financial statement audits.
- Familiarity with reviewing and assessing federal audit findings and their impact on IT risk management.
Preferred Qualifications (Not Required):
- Experience working with Federal and/or DoD clients.
- Knowledge of business process end-to-end mapping.
- Experience conducting federal audits that resulted in an audit opinion or disclaimer of opinion.
- Previous involvement in DoD SSAE-18 AT-C examinations as a service auditor.
Work Location:
- This is a hybrid role requiring the candidate to work onsite 3 days per week at either the Tysons office or a client site in the Greater DC area.
