Role overview About Remote

Remote is building the infrastructure that makes global payroll and employment possible for everyone, everywhere. Our team is made up of people who want to own a piece of that work, not just contribute to it. That work happens across six continents, only Antarctica left to go, entirely remote.

It also requires real fluency with AI in every role, not just familiarity with it.

Our standards are high, and the ownership is total. You'll have the trust and space to find your own way to the best answer, and the support to see it through, because that's how we build things that actually work at this scale. In return, your career grows faster, because at Remote, growth is tied to results.

We're founded on the principle that where someone lives should never limit what they can achieve, and we operate exactly that way.

In this role, you will run the audit execution layer of the EOR Operations Compliance & Audit Program. You own own end-to-end audit delivery a set assigned country portfolio across our EOR Ops domains (Onboarding, Mobility, Lifecycle, and Benefits), coordinate with payroll operations, and act as a peer subject-matter expert alongside Legal and International Operations — resolving domain-level compliance questions directly.

What this job can offer you This is an opportunity to help run the compliance and audit function in EOR Operations at Remote. You'll build and own the control library for a portfolio of countries, shape how AI-assisted audit tooling is designed and implemented, and work as a trusted peer to Legal and International Operations on some of our highest-exposure markets.

Your findings and remediation work will directly reduce compliance risk in countries where our EOR business is scaling fastest, and you'll have real influence over the SOPs, tooling, and automation decisions that come out of what you uncover.

What you bring

• You have solid experience in EOR Operations, with working knowledge across multiple operational domains (e.g., onboarding, employee lifecycle, mobility, benefits, payroll).
• You have hands-on experience designing or maintaining controls, checklists, or audit frameworks, and are comfortable classifying risk tiers and defining what "pass" and "fail" look like for a given control.
• You can operate as a peer SME to Legal and International Operations — contributing informed compliance judgment to risk tiering and regulatory discussions without needing to escalate straightforward domain questions.
• You're comfortable validating AI-assisted outputs (evidence review, rule mapping, prompt/playbook design) and know how to build the feedback loop between AI output accuracy and control updates.
• You write clearly and concisely under pressure — you can turn a messy set of audit findings into a structured report with error rates, root causes, risk tiers, and remediation recommendations that a non-specialist can act on.
• You're comfortable driving remediation to closure: defining what "done" looks like, validating fixes against a control definition, and escalating repeat failures rather than letting them slide.
• You can train and influence people who don't report to you — EOR Ops stakeholders will look to you as the primary compliance contact during the audit cycle.
• You manage yourself well across multiple countries and domains running in parallel, prioritizing based on risk and deadline rather than needing direction on what to do next.
• You're curious about root cause rather than satisfied with a surface-level fix, and you look for the systemic pattern behind repeat findings.
• Prior experience with audit or controls work in a regulated, multi-country environment is a strong plus.

Key responsibilities

• Own the control library for your country portfolio: define, build, and maintain controls per team and country; classify by risk tier; incorporate Legal and International Operations (IO) input and prior-year findings into future audit cycles.
• Lead audit execution across all EOR domains: run the compliance review, apply the rating taxonomy, validate AI-assisted outputs, and confirm pass/fail decisions for your assigned countries.
• Liaise with Legal and IO, contributing operational compliance expertise to risk tiering discussions, regulatory assessments, and authority-led audit responses — without requiring escalation for domain-level questions.
• Develop and operate AI audit workflows: design rule mappings, evidence standards, and prompt/playbook governance for your country scope; maintain the feedback loop from AI output accuracy to control library updates.
• Produce domain-level findings reports: synthesize error rates, root causes, risk tiers, and remediation recommendations.
• Drive remediation from the compliance side: confirm what "done" looks like for each finding, validate fixes against the control definition, and flag repeat failures for escalation.
• Deliver compliance guidance to Ops DRIs: train domain leads on control expectations, evidence standards, and audit discipline; act as the primary compliance contact for domain-level questions during the audit window.
• Contribute to continuous improvement: identify where repeat findings indicate systemic gaps requiring SOP updates, tooling changes, automation, or product/Legal escalation.
