Are you an IT professional who has supported an audit — handled evidence gathering, helped remediate findings, or worked through SOX compliance cycles — but never held the Auditor title? This role was built for you.

Our client is a well-established, highly profitable and employee centric organization headquartered in the suburbs of Buffalo, NY. They are undergoing several exciting technology initiatives and need to add an analytical and “risk aware” technologist to their IT Audit team which is part of a 20 person Audit department. 

You DO NOT need to be a current IT Auditor to be considered. The team strongly prefers training the audit methodology to a technically strong professional if they have not formally held an IT Audit role. Candidates from any technology discipline are encouraged to apply — Infrastructure, Cybersecurity, Software Development, IT Risk & Compliance, GRC, or any role where analytical thinking, process evaluation, and risk identification are central to the work. The key qualities they are looking for are an analytical mindset, strong attention to detail, and a genuine understanding of why identifying and remediating risk matters.

About the Job 

This team performs meaningful, varied audit work across the full IT environment. Recent projects have included MFA rollout gap analysis, patch management and cybersecurity risk reviews, SOX controls testing across 9 systems (access management, change management, disaster recovery), cloud services and network governance audits, and risk audits for system upgrades and new implementations. If you find that kind of work interesting — even if you’ve approached it from the IT side rather than the audit side — this role is worth a conversation.

As an IT Auditor, you will serve as a critical partner in protecting the organization’s systems, data, and processes. Your work will directly influence the maturity of IT controls and the organization’s compliance posture.

• Analyze IT systems and infrastructure to identify risks, vulnerabilities, and opportunities to strengthen security controls
• Plan, execute, and/or assist with IT audits to assess compliance with SOX and internal policies
• Evaluate IT processes, document findings, and deliver clear recommendations for improvement to IT and business stakeholders
• Identify and communicate control gaps, process improvement opportunities, and compliance risks
• Collaborate with external auditors on control changes, walkthroughs, and testing procedures
• Perform system upgrade audits to confirm that SDLC best practices are being followed

Why This Role Stands Out

• Hybrid schedule: 3 days in office, 2 days remote
• Employer-sponsored path to CISA certification 
• Broad scope — you’ll work across the entire IT environment, not siloed into one system
• Long-term career growth in a function that is increasingly strategic to organizations of all sizes.  Pathway to technology roles as well.

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree required
• 7+ years of professional IT experience
• Working knowledge of IT systems, architectures, and related internal controls
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint)
• Exceptional analytical and communication skills — you can translate technical risk into business language
• Process-oriented mindset with strong attention to detail

Nice to Have:

• Familiarity with IT governance and control frameworks such as NIST, COBIT, and/or ITIL
• Familiarity with data analytics tools and/or leveraging AI to increase productivity and efficiency

Benefits & Perks

• Annual Bonus
• Career Development Program
• Low-cost medical, dental and prescription Drug Coverage
• Flexible, hybrid work schedule
• Very generous Paid Time Off
• Paid Training & Certification / Tuition Reimbursement
• 401(k) with match
• Additional Company Funded Retirement Savings Account (even if you don’t contribute to 401K)
• Free parking, onsite gym and cafeteria
• Hybrid work schedule

• Develop, maintain, and enforce security policies and procedures; cross-train IT staff to build organizational resilience
• Prepare clear, standardized reports detailing threats, vulnerabilities, risks, and recommended mitigation steps
• Respond to ad-hoc internal security support requests
• Assist with company-wide system upgrades as needed
