Responsibilities

• Manage the monthly close process using Rillet, an AI-native ERP, including journal entries, reconciliations, accruals, and flux analysis. Focus on tuning automation agents and designing workflows rather than manual data entry.

• Handle accounts receivable, customer invoicing, and collections cadence through Rillet, including aging reviews and Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) management.
• Manage accounts payable, vendor onboarding, and corporate card programs using Ramp and Bill.com.
• Run payroll cycles through BambooHR, including general ledger reconciliation and accruals.
• Administer employee expense workflows on Ramp, enforcing policies and managing month-end accruals.
• Lead the automation roadmap by identifying automation opportunities, designing workflows across systems, documenting controls and audit trails, and implementing improvements.
• Maintain the equity ledger in Carta, including stock-based compensation accounting and 409A timing.
• Prepare for audits and serve as the primary contact for external auditors, managing PBC lists and workpaper preparation.
• Collaborate with the Director of FP&A on forecasting, variance analysis, and SaaS metrics, with increasing involvement over time.
• Develop and document accounting policies, internal controls, and process documentation to support scaling and audit readiness.
• Partner cross-functionally with Sales, People, and Legal teams to ensure accurate data flow from contracts, headcount, and deals into the general ledger.

Qualifications

• Active CPA license.
• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
• 3 to 5 years of progressive accounting experience, ideally combining top 8 public accounting (Big 4 or equivalent) and in-house industry roles. Strong candidates from public accounting alone will also be considered.
• Solid technical accounting expertise, especially in ASC 606 revenue recognition for subscription or recurring-revenue businesses.
• Hands-on experience managing a full-cycle close in a modern ERP environment.
• A well-formed perspective on AI in accounting, including concrete ideas on automation, human oversight, and designing controls and audit trails in an AI-driven close.
• Familiarity with modern finance tools such as Rillet, Ramp, Bill.com, BambooHR, and Carta is a plus; curiosity and ability to learn quickly are essential.
• Direct experience with SaaS or recurring-revenue business models, either through auditing SaaS clients or in-house roles.
• Clear, low-ego communication style suitable for close collaboration with senior finance leadership and auditors.
• Improvement-oriented mindset with ownership of processes and systems, proactively enhancing workflows without waiting for permission.
• Strong accountability and ownership, delivering results with minimal supervision and effective communication.
