- Lead periodic and ad-hoc financial audits (e.g., revenue recognition, cost control, treasury management) across R&D, manufacturing, and sales departments, identifying control gaps and driving corrective actions.
- Oversee the annual internal audit plan, prioritize high-risk areas (e.g., overseas market transactions, supply chain finance), and report audit findings to the audit committee and senior management.

- Take ownership of the company's SOX compliance program, including designing and implementing controls to meet SOX requirements, coordinating SOX testing activities, and ensuring timely remediation of identified deficiencies.

- Develop and maintain SOX compliance documentation, including control matrices, risk assessments, and testing workpapers, ensuring alignment with regulatory updates and business changes.

- Compliance & Legal Risk Management
- Develop and implement a global compliance program covering anti-corruption (e.g., FCPA, UK Bribery Act), data privacy (e.g., GDPR, CCPA), product compliance (e.g., CE, FCC, RoHS for consumer electronics), and trade compliance (e.g., export controls, customs regulations) to ensure adherence to local and international laws.

- Design and implement fraud prevention controls (e.g., expense audit, vendor due diligence, internal whistleblower program) to detect and prevent fraudulent activities, especially in overseas markets.
