Role Overview :

We are looking for an Internal Auditor (Financial) to independently review the accounting, statutory compliance, and books across all three Arcot Group entities — Arcitech AI Solutions Pvt Ltd (India), Arcitech FZCO (UAE), and Arcitech LLC (US, Delaware). This role exists so that errors, control gaps, and compliance risks are caught internally — quietly, quickly, and cheaply — before external auditors, tax authorities, or regulators find them.

The scope is India-heavy. India is our largest entity and the deepest statutory jurisdiction (GST, TDS, e-invoicing, 26AS, Companies Act, ROC filings), so most of your time will be spent auditing Indian books and filings. UAE (VAT, corporate tax) and US (federal / state) audits are periodic — lighter cadence but still owned by this role.

Key ResponsibilitiesIndian Statutory & Books Audit

- Review monthly GSTR-1 / GSTR-3B filings for classification accuracy, reconciliation with books, and portal filing status.
- Audit TDS deductions on payments and Form 26AS reconciliation for receipts — catch mismatches and unclaimed credits.
- Test e-invoicing coverage on applicable invoices; sample IRP portal records against Tally.
- Review ROC / MCA filings, board resolutions, and statutory registers for timeliness and completeness.
- Test revenue recognition, provision entries, and accruals in the Indian books.

Audit Planning & Test Execution
- Build a monthly / quarterly audit plan aligned with statutory cycles and Group Accounts Manager priorities.
- Define scope, entity, period, materiality, and sample size before starting each test.
- Execute tests on schedule; flag capacity issues to the Group Accounts Manager early.
- Adjust the plan when high-severity findings redirect priorities.

Findings, Follow-Up & Closure




- Document every finding with severity classification (Critical / High / Medium / Low), evidence, and specific corrective action recommendation.
- Maintain a live findings register across all entities — open findings, owners, target closure dates.
- Follow up with owners as target dates approach; escalate overdue findings to the Group Accounts Manager.
- Verify evidence of fix before marking a finding closed — not just verbal confirmation.
- Flag recurring findings as systemic control gaps, not just as isolated issues.

Working Papers, Documentation & Evidence
- Maintain organized working papers for every audit test — scope note, samples, evidence, findings, recommendations.
- Cross-reference findings to source documents and applicable statutory rules or standards.
- Keep a clean, searchable audit archive per entity and per cycle.
- Hand over documentation to external auditors when required, without last-minute reconstruction.

UAE & US Financial Audit (Secondary)
- Execute periodic audits of UAE books (VAT filings, corporate tax where applicable, bookkeeping accuracy).
- Execute periodic audits of US books (federal / state sales-tax treatment where applicable, GL accuracy).
- Coordinate with external UAE / US advisors on scope where required.
- Identify inter-company / cross-entity findings when they exist.

Reporting & Communication
- Produce monthly audit reports for the Group Accounts Manager summarizing findings, closures, and open items.




- Communicate findings straight and unfiltered, backed by evidence.
- Build a skilled working relationship with the Accounts team — firm findings, no personal attack.
- Stay current on GST / TDS / Companies Act / audit-standard changes; notify the team of relevant updates.

Required Skills & Experience
- Experience: 2–5 years in accounts, statutory compliance, or internal audit support roles at a company or accounting firm — hands-on GST/TDS/Tally work.
- Qualification (must-have): B.Com / M.Com in Accounting or Finance. CA Inter / CMA Inter not required.
- Indian statutory audit depth (must-have): hands-on with GST classification review, TDS reconciliation with Form 26AS, e-invoicing sampling, and ROC / statutory filing review
- Working paper standards (must-have): understands audit sampling, materiality, evidence documentation, and cross-referencing per audit standard
- Tally Prime: comfortable reading Tally ledgers, extracting reports, and cross-referencing entries with supporting documents
- Excel / Google Sheets: comfortable with reconciliations, pivot tables, VLOOKUP / basic formulas
- Independence & judgment (non-negotiable): willing to raise findings straight, without softening them for relationship reasons
- Communication: clear written English — audit reports, findings, follow-up emails; verbal communication clear enough to discuss findings with the Accounts team professionally
- Attention to detail: audit work has no tolerance for sloppy sampling or missed evidence
- Ownership: able to plan tests, execute independently, and close loops on findings without hand-holding
- Learning mindset: willingness to learn UAE VAT audit and US financial audit on the job under the Group Accounts Manager's guidance.
