• Research and document technical accounting matters (including ASC 606 revenue recognition, ASC 842 leases, and ASC 350 intangibles) and prepare position memos for review
• Serve as the primary point of contact for external auditors during quarterly reviews and annual audits, managing PBC requests and resolving open items
• Improve close and reporting automation in NetSuite and Excel/Power BI to reduce manual work and tighten reconciliation accuracy
• Support SEC-reporting readiness and equity/stock-based compensation accounting in partnership with Legal and People teams

Requirements

• 5–8 years of combined public accounting and industry experience, including Big 4 or national firm audit background
• Active CPA license required
