DESCRIPTION
At Amazon we're working to be the most customer-centric company on earth, and that includes protecting our customers and their data. To get there, we need exceptionally talented, and driven people. Global Internal Audit is a fast paced, dynamic team. We are one of many mechanisms at the company with the aim of continuous improvement. We focus on business and operational processes and the technologies that support them, looking for risks that could harm the company.
We seek an Internal Audit Manager to join our AWS Internal Audit team and own the Infrastructure audit domain — covering data centers and operational infrastructure that underpins AWS's global cloud platform.
You will be part of a team that values business depth, technical curiosity, and the ability to connect audit findings to business outcomes. The ideal candidate brings strong finance and accounting experience and can assess how infrastructure controls impact revenue integrity, financial reporting, and operational resilience.
This is a high-visibility role where you will lead the planning, scoping, execution, and reporting of audits across AWS's infrastructure operations. You will dig deep into complex business and technical environments, identify the full range of risks, and translate them into actionable findings for senior leadership — including the CFO and Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.
To be successful in this role, you will demonstrate high judgement, clear communication and a consistent track record of delivering results. You will thrive in a fast-paced environment, work autonomously in an ambiguous environment, and understand the importance of operationalizing key mechanisms and management reporting related to quality and professional practice standards.
Up to 20% travel may be required, including international travel.
This role can be based in Seattle or Arlington.
Key job responsibilities
- Lead end-to-end audits from risk assessment and scoping through fieldwork, reporting, and remediation tracking — managing multiple concurrent engagements
- Design and execute Risk & Control Matrices (RCMs) for infrastructure-related audits, ensuring testing objectives are aligned with the most significant risks
- Draft audit findings that clearly articulate the risk, control gap, root cause, business impact, and recommended remediation — with proper context for both the audit report and Audit Committee (AC) memo
- Ensure all deliverables meet Internal Audit's quality bar with minimal revision
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS
- 6+ years of compliance, audit or risk management experience
- 5+ years of program or project management experience
- Knowledge of Microsoft Office products and applications at an advanced level
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
- Project Management Professional (PMP) or equivalent certification
- Experience leveraging technology and implementing lean principles / Six Sigma methodologies to drive process improvements or equivalent
- Master's degree or equivalent

Senior Level Audit Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a senior level audit manager job?
Employers at this level look for candidates who have led end-to-end audit engagements, managed client or stakeholder relationships independently, and supervised or mentored junior staff. Demonstrating ownership of audit methodology, risk assessment frameworks, and regulatory findings carries more weight than tenure alone. Certifications such as CPA, CIA, or CISA sharpen a candidacy, and a history of presenting findings to executive leadership or audit committees gives candidates a clear edge.
Which companies hire senior level audit managers?
Companies hiring senior level audit managers right now include SingerLewak LLP, Coinbase, and CBIZ, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Hiring at this level covers large public accounting firms, financial institutions, healthcare systems, and multinational corporations that maintain internal audit functions with dedicated senior leadership.
Are there remote senior level audit manager jobs?
Yes, though availability varies by industry and employer. About 48% of senior level audit manager openings are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, reflecting broader flexibility in audit functions where much of the review and reporting work can be done off-site. Roles tied to on-site fieldwork, regulated industries, or government contractors are more likely to require in-person presence.
What makes an audit manager role senior level?
Senior level audit manager roles are defined by ownership rather than execution. These positions carry responsibility for designing audit plans, setting scope and risk priorities, and ensuring quality across the work of a full team. They involve direct engagement with executive stakeholders and audit committees, accountability for regulatory and compliance outcomes, and an expectation of mentoring mid-level and junior staff without close supervision.
Which industries hire the most senior level audit managers?
Senior level audit manager roles concentrate in Accounting & Auditing, Consulting & Professional Services, and Investment & Asset Management, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. These sectors drive demand because of their scale of financial operations, regulatory scrutiny, and the complexity of internal controls that require experienced audit leadership to manage and report on effectively.
