The opportunity

You will run the external audit calendar for our SOX 404 program as we scale toward an IPO. That means coordinating with our external auditors across the year, aligning testing windows with control owners, educating our control owners, and keeping requests and deliverables on schedule.

What you'll do

  • Own the annual SOX audit calendar, including interim and year-end testing: windows, walkthrough schedules, and key deliverable dates agreed with external auditors.

  • Serve as the day-to-day point of contact for external auditor requests.: Triage, route, and track each request to closure, including PBC (provided-by-client) lists and evidence deliveries.

  • Coordinate auditor walkthroughs and fieldwork with process owners, control: owners, and the SOX Testing team, so each control owner is asked for the same evidence once.

  • Track auditor findings, management responses, and deficiency follow-ups, and: report status to Internal Audit leadership.

  • Prepare control owners and process owners for auditor sessions, and get: evidence delivered on time without direct authority over them.

  • Lead the annual SOX scoping and risk assessment, including quarterly: refreshes, and support the annual Fraud Risk Assessment, so the program has appropriate scope and coverage under COSO.

What they're looking for

  • In-house SOX experience at a pre-IPO or newly public company.
  • Experience running a fraud risk assessment.
  • CPA, CISA, or similar certification.
  • Comfort with SQL or data tools for reporting, and experience building: lightweight automations, including with Claude.
