We are currently looking for a Senior Financial Analyst – Internal Controls to join our team
Purpose of the Role
The Senior Financial Analyst, Internal Controls will join Keel's Internal Controls team, reporting directly to the Director of Internal Controls, within the Finance department. The team is responsible for maintaining Keel's SOX compliance program and is expanding its mandate to cover risk management and control implementation across the Finance function more broadly, as Keel's business evolves.
This role supports the first line of defense — control owners across the business — rather than performing control testing (which is outsourced to a third-party service provider). The team's objective is to help control owners succeed, ensure controls are properly designed and operating, and support a clean annual SOX audit opinion as the company's processes and risk profile evolve. This role focuses on financial and operational internal controls, with IT and systems compliance managed by another Keel department (IT team).
What You'll Do
- Support the maintenance and continuous improvement of Keel's SOX program as the business evolves, and act as a day-to-day point of contact for control owners on control design, documentation, and best practices
- Contribute to extending Keel's internal controls scope beyond SOX — participating in risk assessments and process description/documentation work, and helping build out risk management and controls capabilities across non-SOX areas of the Finance function
- Maintain and update the Company's internal control documentation (risk registers, RCM, process descriptions, etc.)
- Help identify opportunities to rationalize controls — keeping them efficient and proportionate to the risk they address, and avoiding unnecessary or duplicative controls
- Track control deficiencies and support control owners in designing and monitoring remediation plans
- Assist the Director in coordinating testing activities with Keel's external testing service provider and in engaging with the external auditor on SOX-related matters
- Prepare reporting on the internal controls environment for relevant stakeholders (management, the Board, and other parties as appropriate)
- Support the team in adapting the internal controls environment to the growing use of AI tools by control owners
Qualifications
- CPA or other relevant professional certification (CPA preferred)
- Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field
- 3+ years of relevant experience in internal controls, internal/external audit, or a related field, ideally with a Big 4 or other reputable audit/consulting firm and exposure to public companies
- Experience with relevant frameworks (COSO, SOX 404, etc.)
- Strong process and risk analysis skills; ability to translate processes into clear documentation (narratives, flowcharts, RCM entries)
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to work directly and collaboratively with control owners and other stakeholders
Benefits
- Competitive salary, bonus and equity opportunities
- Comprehensive health and wellness benefits
- Retirement savings with company contribution
- Employee referral program
- Support the maintenance and continuous improvement of Keel's SOX program as the business evolves, and act as a day-to-day point of contact for control owners on control design, documentation, and best practices

About this role
Keel Infrastructure is seeking a Senior Financial Analyst to lead internal controls support across its Finance function as the publicly traded energy and digital infrastructure company scales. You'd report to the Director of Internal Controls and serve as the primary advisor to control owners on SOX compliance, control design, and best practices—helping them succeed rather than auditing their work. The role balances maintaining Keel's current SOX 404 program with expanding internal controls scope into risk management and non-SOX areas of Finance, including adapting controls for emerging AI tool usage.
Your day-to-day work involves maintaining control documentation (risk registers, process narratives, flowcharts, and control matrices), identifying opportunities to streamline or eliminate redundant controls, tracking deficiencies and remediation efforts, and preparing stakeholder reporting for management and the Board. You'll also coordinate with Keel's external testing provider and external auditor on SOX matters. This is hands-on, collaborative work requiring strong process analysis skills and the ability to translate complex control environments into clear, usable documentation.
The role calls for a CPA (or equivalent certification) with at least three years in internal controls, audit, or related work—ideally at a Big 4 firm with public company exposure. You'll need solid grounding in COSO and SOX frameworks, sharp written and verbal communication, and the ability to work directly with business stakeholders. The position is full-time and based in Pittsburgh.
