  • Control Evaluation and Monitoring: Conduct end-to-end evaluations of internal controls over financial reporting (ICFR) to ensure the integrity and accuracy of financial disclosures. This responsibility entails executing risk diagnostics, assessing the design and operational effectiveness of controls, mapping key financial statement assertions to control activities, and monitoring the effectiveness of controls.

  • Reporting and Analysis: Assist in the preparation of clear and concise reports for Financial Risk Management (FRM) leadership and key stakeholders. These communications will articulate the purpose and status of risks related to key initiatives, such as, but not limited to, SOX compliance. This reporting will provide actionable insights that strengthen the organization's risk posture and operational resilience.
  • Regulatory Compliance: Stay abreast of changes in SOX and other related regulations and best practices, and ensure the company's compliance program is updated accordingly. This includes monitoring changes to PCAOB auditing standards and SEC guidance.
  • Exceptional Communication: The ability to distill complex financial concepts for any audience, from engineers to executives. You can articulate risk in a way that is clear, concise, and compelling.
  • A Sharp, Analytical Mind: Drive and curiosity to dig into details, connecting the dots between processes, and solving complex puzzles. Solving problems with critical thinking and a meticulous eye for detail.
  • Adaptability and Resilience: A flexible mindset that is comfortable navigating ambiguity and thriving in Uber's fast-paced, ever-evolving environment.
