SoundHound Inc. is hiring a

Manager, Internal Audit & SOX Compliance

SoundHound AI believes every person should be able to interact naturally with the products around them–by simply talking. With a global reach spanning two dozen languages, we build Voice AI products with conversational intelligence for cars, restaurant ordering, retail businesses, and more, allowing our customers to extend their brand in new and meaningful ways.

We are seeking an experienced audit or accounting professional ready to assist the Head of Internal Audit & SOX Compliance in the continued development of the internal audit function. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure compliance with regulatory standards (specifically SOX compliance), identify improvement areas, and execute robust audit strategies to safeguard the company's financial integrity during its crucial post-IPO growth phase. With a focus on risk management and process optimization, the role demands a seasoned professional adept at navigating the dynamic landscape of a newly public AI company.

In this role, you will:

  • Provide support to the business with ongoing improvement and innovation of the SOX program including the identification of opportunities for streamlining and automation
  • Monitor the broader organization to ensure the control environment adapts as the company evolves. This includes assisting the control owners in designing & implementing internal controls for emerging or newly in-scope areas
  • Build and maintain a comprehensive understanding of business processes/changes and maintain active relationships across the company to facilitate audit execution
  • Assist in evaluation and resolution of identified control deficiencies, including monitoring of remediation efforts and developing remediation activities to address identified control deficiencies
  • Participate in risk-based approaches to build policies, procedures, controls, and risk mitigation activities
  • Review workpapers to ensure all support is aligned with internal quality control policy (and needs of external auditors).
  • Develop and deliver internal control related training for control owners on a regular basis to build knowledge and understanding of risks and controls
  • Assist with ad hoc projects and deliverables as needed

We would love to hear from you if:

  • You have a Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting or related field, with 12+ years of relevant experience within internal audit, assurance, and/or accounting (or 8+ years with Master’s degree)
  • You are a Certified Public Accountant (CPA), Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) or have other relevant certification(s)
  • You have extensive knowledge of SOX requirements, COSO framework, and internal control best practices.
  • You have experience in designing controls for business process areas, including business control impact analysis with system implementation or process changes.
  • You thrive in fast paced environments, and have a desire for continuous learning
  • Must be a strong team player, self-starter, with exceptional problem solving, and analytical skills
  • You have excellent communication and presentation skills

We’d be especially excited if you have an MBA or another advanced degree, and or Big 4 public accounting experience
