Manager, SOX PMO - Business Process

As Manager, SOX PMO - Business Process, you'll lead Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) compliance for assigned business processes as part of GitLab's second line.

• Monitoring risks from new and changing processes, products, and systems
• Evaluating control deficiencies and preparing well-supported severity assessments
• Preparing auditor-ready technical memos and reports on SOX compliance status
• Leading business walkthroughs and stakeholder meetings
• Advising on controls for AI-enabled processes and processes that use AI agents
• Partnering with the IT SOX PMO to assess new systems and controls
• Developing and maintaining accurate process narratives, flowcharts, and risk and control matrices

You'll bring:

• Hands-on SOX and internal controls experience
• Experience in the software or technology industry
• A bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field
• An active Certified Public Accountant (CPA) credential or Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) credential
• Strong understanding of SOX requirements and internal control frameworks
