As an Internal Auditor at Texas PSF Corporation, you'll evaluate internal controls, audit operational and investment processes, and support risk management efforts across a sovereign endowment-style fund. This is a hands-on role, working closely with teams across Investments, Finance, and Operations to ensure transparency, accountability, and alignment with internal policies and industry standards.

The right candidate is analytical, curious, and confident working across departments to assess controls, identify risk, and improve processes. Strong knowledge of accounting principles, COSO frameworks, and investment operations is key, along with the ability to work independently on a small, high-impact team.
