About the role

What you’ll be doing

  • Own the monthly, quarterly, and annual close, driving a disciplined, accurate, and increasingly efficient GAAP close process

  • Lead global consolidation across multiple legal entities, currencies, and jurisdictions, including intercompany accounting and eliminations

  • Own advanced and technical accounting matters, including revenue recognition, complex transactions, accounting policy, and GAAP interpretation

  • Own preparation and review of internal and external financial reporting, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and timely delivery

  • Lead the evolution of the company’s accounting systems, integrations, and financial data architecture, reducing manual processes and improving control and visibility

  • Partner closely with People Operations on global payroll, ensuring accurate accounting, reconciliations, controls, and coordination across payroll providers and entities

  • Oversee core finance administration, including banking, treasury administration, entity support, expense and vendor processes, accounting documentation, and related operational workflows

  • Lead the company’s external financial statement audit, managing audit readiness, supporting schedules, technical accounting documentation, and auditor relationships

  • Establish and maintain accounting policies, procedures, controls, and documentation appropriate for a growing global organization

  • Partner with business leaders to ensure financial reporting accurately reflects business performance and supports decision-making

  • Proactively identify financial, accounting, systems, and process risks and resolve issues before they create downstream problems

  • Lead a deliberately lean finance organization, developing direct reports into stronger operators and increasing team capability through systems, automation, standards, and clear ownership rather than relying primarily on additional headcount

We’ll be excited if you have

  • 8+ years of progressive accounting experience, with significant experience owning close, consolidation, reporting, and technical accounting

  • Deep knowledge of the U.S. GAAP and demonstrated ability to independently research and resolve complex accounting matters

  • Experience working with global entities, multi-entity consolidation, intercompany transactions, and international accounting operations

  • Strong experience with revenue recognition and other advanced accounting topics relevant to a SaaS or technology business

  • Demonstrated ownership of annual external audits and audit readiness

  • Strong understanding of accounting systems, ERP environments, integrations, and financial data flows

  • Highly technical and AI-savvy, with a track record of using automation and technology to materially improve finance operations

  • Experience partnering with People Operations on payroll, ideally across multiple countries or payroll providers

  • Experience managing and developing accounting professionals in a lean operating environment.

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with exceptional attention to detail

  • Ability to move fluidly between strategic issues, technical accounting, systems architecture, and hands-on execution

  • Comfortable operating in an environment where processes are still evolving and where leaders are expected to build rather than inherit fully mature infrastructure

  • Ability to work U.S. business hours
