Full Job Description
Job Description

What you will do:
  • AI Control Scaffold Development: Partner directly with the engineering and FRM Compliance Technology team to design, build, and maintain reusable control frameworks and scaffolds for AI use cases that impact financial reporting. Translate requirements into implementable technical specifications that engineering teams can deploy and scale across the organization.
  • AI Use Case Evaluation: Serve as the FRM point of contact for evaluating new AI implementations within Finance and CAO. Assess ICFR risk exposure, determine whether existing controls are sufficient or whether new controls must be designed, and document evaluation findings in a repeatable, audit-ready format that supports both internal and external review.
  • Control Design & Implementation: Design and operationalize novel controls for AI-specific risks-including model drift, hallucination, data quality degradation, and human-in-the-loop failures-where no established precedent exists. Define control objectives, evidence requirements, and test plans for each new control, creating durable documentation that can be audited and replicated.
  • FinTech & Compliance Technology Partnership: Embed with FinTech and compliance technology teams throughout the AI development lifecycle, from product design through deployment and ongoing operation. Surface control requirements early to prevent costly retrofits, and collaborate on technical implementations that satisfy audit standards without creating unnecessary friction for engineering partners.
  • CAO & Finance Stakeholder Engagement: Support FRM leadership in engaging CAO and Finance stakeholders on AI governance matters. Build working relationships with accounting policy, financial reporting, and operations control owners to ensure AI adoption decisions are grounded in a clear understanding of ICFR impact. Translate governance requirements into practical language that resonates with non-technical stakeholders and helps control owners understand and fulfill their responsibilities within the AI control environment.
  • Risk Assessment & Ongoing Monitoring: Execute risk diagnostics on active AI use cases within the ICFR scope. Design and implement monitoring mechanisms that provide continuous visibility into control effectiveness as AI systems evolve, and escalate emerging risks to FRM leadership in a timely and well-documented manner.
  • Deficiency Management & Remediation: Identify, document, and track control gaps within the AI control environment. Investigate root causes, partner with FinTech and business stakeholders to design appropriate remediation plans, and monitor corrective actions through to successful completion.
  • Program Reporting & Management: Maintain the AI controls inventory and prepare clear status updates and workpaper documentation to support FRM leadership reporting and external audit requests. Track progress against the AI Governance program roadmap and help coordinate the prioritization and scheduling of new use case evaluations and scaffold development work.
  • Regulatory Intelligence & Standards Development: Track emerging AI-specific regulatory and audit guidance and translate findings into actionable program updates, control standard revisions, and stakeholder communications that keep Uber ahead of the curve.


Basic Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Information Systems, or a related field.
  • 4+ years of relevant experience in IT audit, internal audit, or public accounting.
  • Demonstrated exposure to AI/ML systems, automation platforms, and technology governance frameworks.
  • Program or project management experience coordinating cross-functional workstreams.
  • Experience working directly with AI/ML systems, LLMs, or AI-powered tools-whether in audit, testing, governance, or implementation capacity.


Preferred Qualifications:
  • CISA, CPA, CIA, or other relevant professional certification is highly preferred.
  • Big 4 or top-tier advisory firm experience is a plus.
  • Working experience with SOX compliance.
  • Enthusiastic about Uber!
