    Job Description

    Are you ready to apply your risk and compliance expertise to Amazon's unique environment? We are seeking an experienced Senior Internal Auditor to support our Worldwide Amazon Stores Internal Audit team who can apply broad operational knowledge and sound business judgment to execute operational audits across our diverse businesses and technical environments.

    This is a high visibility opportunity where you will gain valuable exposure to many areas within our business, and be able to make important improvements that make a real difference. Our team is cross-functional and you will perform a wide range of operational and technical audits, so we are seeking a candidate with broad experience in Operations, Commercial, Compliance, IT and Financial auditing. You must also be comfortable performing as a sole contributor and teammate and in doing so will have the opportunity to learn our business, our IT environment, and meet a wide range of stakeholders.

    You will work with an Audit Manager conducting end-to-end financial, operational, IT and compliance audits across all Amazon businesses. Audit topics could include distribution center operations, customer services, vendor contracting, logistics, commercial arrangements, compliance with varying regulations and company policies, privacy, information security, business continuity, asset management and platform security, among others.

    You must be able to understand complex business processes and identify the full range of risks. You should be comfortable interacting with a range of roles, from technical software development engineers to business leaders.

    We do not want someone who can just find risks. You should be able to translate risks into business issues. You will use your writing skills to succinctly communicate identified issues in business terms. You must help prioritize findings and recommendations in tune with our corporate strategy. You should be able to facilitate multiple stakeholders to agree on appropriate solutions and verify that risks are mitigated appropriately. You must be a strong project manager who can manage variable resources and conduct your own audits from beginning to end, often managing multiple projects at once.

    We value creativity, insight, intellectual flexibility, and sound business judgment.

    If you thrive in a challenging and fast-paced environment, come join us, as you will be part of a vibe of constant improvement, where the things you do one moment, you will not necessarily be doing 6 months later. We don't like to sit still, which is why we always treat every day like Day 1 -- a day to make more good things happen for our customers. It's that kind of spirit that drives our success now and keeps us ahead of the competition in the future. And you could be part of it.

    Key job responsibilities

    • Execute project plans, prepare written findings, and facilitate business responses and action items.
    • Dive deep into the details to develop meaningful findings and recommend root cause remediation.
    • Facilitate multiple stakeholders to agree on appropriate solutions and verify that risks are mitigated appropriately.
    • Prepare reports which you will present to senior level management and provide for reporting to the Audit Committee.
    • Represent Internal Audit to various venues (e.g. meetings with stakeholders, Management and Board meetings, compliance committees)
    • Produce documentation to respond to internal/external requests to Internal Audit

    About Company

    At Amazon, we don’t wait for the next big idea to present itself. We envision the shape of impossible things and then we boldly make them reality. So far, this mindset has helped us achieve some incredible things. Let’s build new systems, challenge the status quo, and design the world we want to live in. We believe the work you do here will be the best work of your life.

    Wherever you are in your career exploration, Amazon likely has an opportunity for you. Our research scientists and engineers shape the future of natural language understanding with Alexa. Fulfillment center associates around the globe send customer orders from our warehouses to doorsteps. Product managers set feature requirements, strategy, and marketing messages for brand new customer experiences. And as we grow, we’ll add jobs that haven’t been invented yet.

    It’s Always Day 1
    At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here

    Our Leadership Principles
    Our Leadership Principles help us keep a Day 1 mentality. They aren’t just a pretty inspirational wall hanging. Amazonians use them, every day, whether they’re discussing ideas for new projects, deciding on the best solution for a customer’s problem, or interviewing candidates.
