About the Role

Supernova s looking for an Internal Auditor to strengthen our control environment. Partnering closely with our technology and security teams, this role will have an IT focus but will also lead audits across the entire organization - assessing risks, testing controls, and recommending practical improvements across the business.

Responsibilities

  • Partner with technology and security teams to plan and execute risk assessments, leading walkthroughs and overseeing tests of design and operating effectiveness
  • Participate in annual and ongoing scoping to proactively identify and address changes to systems, applications, and automated controls
  • Coordinate and perform testing of IT general controls (ITGCs) and automated controls
  • Conduct operational, compliance, and other audits across the organization
  • Review compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and internal policies
  • Document internal controls and procedures
  • Identify control gaps and provide practical recommendations for business process and internal control improvements
  • Prepare and present management reports that communicate audit findings, risks, and remediation plans
  • Track remediation of prior audit findings through to closure


Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree (Computer Science, Information Systems, Accounting, Business Administration, or related field preferred)
  • 4+ years of internal or external audit experience, ideally spanning both IT and financial controls
  • Professional certification preferred — CISA especially valued given the IT and security focus, with CIA or CPA also strongly considered
  • Working knowledge of internal control frameworks and standards (e.g., COSO, SOX, COBIT, and the IIA International Standards for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing)
  • Experience testing IT general controls and automated controls
  • Familiarity with data analytics or audit tools (e.g., Excel, SQL, ACL/Galvanize, IDEA, or Tableau) is a plus
  • Strong written and verbal communication, including clearly presenting findings and recommendations to management
  • Ability to work efficiently with minimal oversight as well as across multiple concurrent project teams
  • Comfortable in a fast-paced, constantly evolving, rapid-growth environment with multiple projects and tasks
  • High ethical standards, strong attention to detail, and the ability to cope with complexity and change

  • Medical, Dental, and Vision Insurance: Multiple plans with coverage for employees and dependents.
  • HSA and FSA Accounts: Tax-advantaged accounts for health and dependent care expenses.
