We're looking for an Audit Senior (CaseWare) to run audits end to end in CaseWare on a simulated portfolio of small and medium clients, from planning through to the signed auditor's report. Your work becomes the training data and workflow designs that a cutting-edge AI audit system learns from. This is a long-term, permanent role working directly with the founding team and an AI partner at the frontier of AI development in audit.
The work here goes beyond standard audit execution. You will carry each engagement from planning to close-out to a professional standard, but you will also document the steps, decisions, and judgments behind your work so an AI system can learn from them. That means designing and testing the workflows the AI follows, not just producing the outputs. If you have at least three years of external audit experience, hands-on CaseWare Working Papers proficiency, and a genuine interest in making audit work teachable to a machine, this role is a strong fit.
