Staff Product Manager for Internal Audit

Fieldguide is revolutionizing global commerce and capital markets by automating and streamlining advisory, audit, and tax workflows for the world’s largest CPA firms. Their mission is to build software for the professionals who establish trust between businesses.

Based in San Francisco with a remote-first culture, Fieldguide is backed by top-tier investors including Goldman Sachs, Bessemer Venture Partners, 8VC, and Y Combinator. They prioritize diversity and inclusivity, fostering a supportive, growth-oriented team.

About the Role

Internal audit teams are increasingly stretched thin, with budget cuts rising from 11% to 19% and staff cuts climbing from 11% to 18% (IIA’s 2026 North American Pulse of Internal Audit). Meanwhile, the audit universe continues to expand.

What You'll Do

• Engage directly with Chief Audit Executives, VPs of Internal Audit, and Heads of IT Audit, including onsite visits, to understand their needs and translate them into product requirements.

Who You Are

• Possess 10+ years of product management experience.

• Have experience with internal audit, SOX, risk, or regulated compliance workflows, either as a practitioner or a PM who has built software for these markets.

• Fluent in the terminology of internal audit, including audit universe, entity-level controls, risk and control matrices, walkthroughs, deficiency severity, remediation, and external auditor reliance.

• Strong technical fluency with the ability to discuss LLM and agent architecture, evaluations, and trade-offs with engineers without needing to write code.

• Capable of maintaining a strategic position under sustained commercial pressure and adjusting it when compelling arguments arise.

• Comfortable working with detail-oriented, skeptical stakeholders and translating their workflows into product requirements.
