Job description

Who We Are

the company is transforming how organizations protect their people and places with an integrated, privacy-sensitive AI-powered platform that includes solutions for video security, access control, air quality sensors, alarms, intercoms, and visitor management.

We’ve got serious momentum in the market: more than 30,000 customers (including 100+ of the Fortune 500), a $5.8B valuation, more than $1 billion in annualized bookings, and backing from CapitalG, Sequoia Capital, General Catalyst, Felicis Ventures, Next47 and more. Physical AI is one of the most consequential technology shifts of our time, and the company is at the center of it.

You can look at all kinds of communities to see our platform’s impact in the world. It's the retailer that uses our agentic AI to deter theft before it happens. The warehouse that uses AI-powered alerts to make sure its team is protected on the floor with proper PPE. The school that’s alerted to a threat in real-time and triggers a lockdown in seconds, not minutes. We’re rapidly scaling this impact: today, more than 2 million the company devices are deployed across 170+ countries.

About the Role

We are seeking an experienced SOX Manager to lead and mature our Sarbanes‑Oxley (SOX) compliance program. This role is critical to ensure the design, implementation, and operating effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting (ICFR) across a complex, multi-subsidiary, international organization. The ideal candidate has hands‑on experience managing SOX programs in a high-growth, multinational environment — ideally within a hardware, SaaS, or technology company — and is comfortable operating in a fast‑paced setting with evolving processes and systems.

This role is based in San Mateo, California. What You’ll Do

• Own and manage the end-to-end SOX 404 compliance program, including risk assessment, scoping, control design, testing strategy, and remediation tracking.

• Partner with process owners across Accounting, FP&A, Revenue, Procurement, Payroll, IT, and other functions to document, evaluate, and continuously improve key controls.

• Identify control gaps and deficiencies; drive root‑cause analysis and remediation plans with control owners, tracking issues to closure.

• Maintain and update process narratives, risk‑control matrices (RCMs), and flowcharts to reflect current‑state processes, including changes driven by new systems, acquisitions, or new subsidiaries/entities.

• Monitor changes in the business (new revenue streams, new international entities, system implementations, M&A) and assess SOX scoping and control implications.

• Support ITGC (IT General Controls) testing coordination with IT and security teams, including access reviews, change management, and system implementation controls.

• Prepare quarterly and annual SOX status reporting for management and external auditors.

• Drive automation and efficiency improvements in control execution and testing (e.g., leveraging GRC tools, data analytics, and control automation).

• Provide training and guidance to control owners on control design, evidence standards, and SOX requirements.

• Stay current on PCAOB, SEC, and COSO framework developments and assess impact on the company's control environment.

What You Bring

• 5–8 years of overall relevant experience in SOX compliance, internal audit, external audit (Big 4 or national firm), or internal controls, with meaningful time spent in a SOX Manager, Senior SOX Analyst, or equivalent role.

• Strong working knowledge of the COSO Internal Control Framework and SOX 404 requirements.

• Experience managing or significantly contributing to a public company (or pre‑IPO) SOX program, including scoping, walkthroughs, testing, and deficiency evaluation.

• Solid understanding of key financial processes (Revenue, Procurement‑to‑Pay, Order‑to‑Cash, Payroll, Inventory, Financial Close) and the associated risks and controls.

• Experience working with ITGCs and coordinating with IT/security teams on system‑related controls.

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.

• CPA, CIA, or CISA certification preferred (or actively pursuing).

• Strong project management skills with the ability to manage multiple workstreams, deadlines, and stakeholders simultaneously.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain control concepts clearly to non‑finance stakeholders.

• Proficiency with NetSuite, SAP, Oracle, or similar ERP systems; experience with GRC/audit management tools (e.g., AuditBoard, Workiva, SOX Hub) is a plus.

• Must be willing and able to commute 5 days in office.
