  • Manage the annual audit and maintain strong internal controls and accounting policies
  • Partner with Finance and leaders across the company on reporting, forecasting and strategic projects
  • Use AI and automation to make the close faster and our reporting more insightful
  • What You'll Bring

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance or a related field
  • 7+ years of progressive accounting experience, including public accounting or a high-growth company, with 3+ years managing accounting staff
  • Deep knowledge of US generally accepted accounting principles, including ASC 606 for software-as-a-service or subscription businesses
  • Proven ownership of the month-end close and the annual external audit
  • Hands-on NetSuite and Salesforce experience; FloQast, Avalara, Ramp and Expensify experience is a plus
  • Curiosity about AI and a track record of using automation to improve accounting work
  • Who you are

  • A coach and leader who develops people and builds trust across the team.
  • A business partner who sees accounting as a way to help leaders make better decisions.
  • Curious and forward-thinking, always looking for a better, faster way to get things done.
