About this role
Role Overview
As an Audit Expert, you will play a pivotal role in advancing frontier agent evaluations in audit by developing long-horizon audit tasks that reflect your existing work. Each task will be accompanied by a deterministic rubric to assess agent performance against verifiable ground truth, ensuring that tasks have checkable answers without subjective judgment.
Key Responsibilities- Planning: Create risk assessments based on fixed fact patterns with documented expected ratings, and develop audit programs mapped to assertions.
- Execution: Conduct control testing with known populations and defined sampling, and perform confirmations against a ground-truth response set.
- Wrap-up: Review workpapers where defects are pre-identified and draft deficiency memos with required fields.
These scenarios will require significant focus and will be intellectually challenging.
Qualifications- BS in Accounting with a minimum of 2 years of experience in external audit (Big 4 or national firm) or internal audit at a public company.
- CPA or CPA candidate preferred.
- Expertise in one or more areas such as SOX ITGCs, substantive analytics, sampling methodology, revenue or inventory cycles, or specific audit software (Aura, Clara, Canvas, TeamMate, AuditBoard).
- Ability to read and produce audit artifacts including workpapers, walkthroughs, test matrices, and deficiency write-ups.
- Strong written communication skills, with the ability to articulate reasoning step by step and encode it into deterministic rubrics.
- Must be located in the United States or Canada.
