As an NVIDIAN, you will be immersed in a diverse, supportive environment where everyone is inspired to do their best work. Come join the team and see how you can make a lasting impact on the world.

We are looking for a senior audit leader to own risk-based coverage across Order-to-Cash, Legal and Regulatory Compliance, and Human Resources at NVIDIA. Reporting to the VP & CAE, you will deliver independent assurance over key controls and provide actionable insights to executive management and the Audit Committee. The ideal candidate brings deep expertise across these domains, thrives in a high-growth environment, and has the executive presence to influence at the highest levels!

What you'll be doing:

• Order-to-Cash Audit Coverage Evaluate control design and effectiveness over channel partner programs, distributor agreements, rebate accruals, and related-party transactions. Monitor emerging risks in revenue assurance, channel risks, and pricing integrity as NVIDIA expands its data center and AI product lines. Partner with Finance and Sales Operations to assess risk in deal structuring, contract management, and go-to-market compliance. Collaborate with the SOX PMO function on related controls and determine a risk based audit plan.
• Legal & Regulatory Compliance Audit Coverage Design and supervise audits covering global trade compliance, anti-bribery and anti-corruption (FCPA, UK Bribery Act), data privacy (GDPR, CCPA/CPRA), and antitrust/competition law adherence. Assess the effectiveness of NVIDIA's Code of Conduct, ethics hotline program, the conflict-of-interest disclosures, and third-party due diligence frameworks. Collaborate with the Legal, Compliance, and Government Affairs teams to identify regulatory developments affecting audit scope and risk landscape.
• Human Resources Audit Coverage Lead HR audits spanning payroll, compensation /equity, talent acquisition, and HR system access controls; evaluate adherence to employment law across NVIDIA's global workforce. Assess organizational culture and ethics indicators - training completion, speak-up program trends, and exit data - as leading signals of control environment health.

What we need to see:

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience in Accounting, Finance, Business, or a related team; CIA or CFE preferred.
• 12+ overall years of progressive internal audit, public accounting, or compliance experience.
• 4+ years in a leadership/management role.
• Proven ability to communicate complex audit findings clearly and persuasively to senior executives and Board-level audiences.
• Strong command of risk-based audit methodologies, the IIA Standards, and COSO Internal Control Framework.
• Demonstrated ability to build and maintain a dynamic, risk-based audit plan that reflects current business risk, integrating inputs from ERM, and business/executive leadership.
