Own and manage Grindr's IT General Controls program end-to-end — scoping, user access reviews, control design, testing, and remediation tracking across all SOX-relevant systems and processes
Serve as the primary liaison between external auditors and Grindr's internal IT and engineering teams, translating control requirements into clear, actionable guidance and driving issues to resolution

Coach and guide internal stakeholders on SOX compliance requirements, building accountability and institutional knowledge across the org
Partner with the Director of Internal Audit on enterprise risk management, fraud risk, and operational audit initiatives as the team scales its capacity

3–5+ years of experience in IT audit, IT risk advisory, or SOX IT general controls — Big 4 background strongly preferred; a mix of Big 4 and high-growth technology industry experience is the sweet spot
Hands-on expertise with IT general controls testing: user access reviews, change management, SDLC controls, and computer operations
Deep working knowledge of SOX Section 404 requirements and PCAOB standards as they apply to IT environments
AI-native — you actively leverage AI tools in your workflow and continuously identify opportunities to improve efficiency, accuracy, and scalability across audit and risk activities
Proven ability to implement AI-driven solutions within a SOX environment — streamlining control execution, enhancing testing approaches, and reducing manual overhead while maintaining audit quality and compliance
Proven ability to communicate clearly with both technical teams (engineers, IT) and non-technical stakeholders (finance, leadership)
Comfort navigating a fast-moving, ambiguous technology environment — you've seen what good looks like at scale and can build toward it
