Business Solutions Architect: Finance Systems

Axon • Boston, MA

13h • Hybrid

About The Position

Join Axon’s Business Solutions team as a Business Solutions Architect / Product Manager responsible for Axon’s Finance Systems portfolio. This role owns delivery and ongoing product management for critical finance platforms that support close, consolidation, revenue recognition, compliance, and financial reporting. In the near term, you will lead two high-visibility initiatives: the implementation of Axon’s Finance & Accounting Consolidation platform and a major RevStream upgrade. Over time, you will operate as the product owner for assigned finance systems, shaping roadmaps, prioritizing investments, and ensuring measurable business outcomes across Finance. You will partner closely with Finance, Accounting, Revenue Operations, Tax, IT, Engineering, and Enterprise Architecture. You own what gets delivered and why; technical teams own how it is built.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Information Systems, or related field (or equivalent experience)
• 8+ years of experience in finance systems, business systems product management, or enterprise delivery roles
• Deep understanding of financial close, consolidation, revenue recognition, reconciliations, and statutory reporting
• Proven experience owning complex finance system initiatives (e.g., consolidation platforms, revenue systems, close automation)
• Experience with platforms such as OneStream, Oracle EPM, Workiva, BlackLine, RevStream, or similar finance tools
• Strong product management capabilities: roadmap ownership, backlog prioritization, stakeholder alignment, UAT leadership, and phased delivery
• Technical fluency with ERPs and analytics platforms (D365 F&O, Snowflake, Power BI, Sigma) sufficient to partner successfully with engineering and data teams
• Ability to operate autonomously on ambiguous, high-impact initiatives
• Strong communication skills and executive presence; comfortable presenting recommendations and tradeoffs to senior stakeholders
• Collaborative, outcome-driven mindset with a passion for continuous improvement

Responsibilities

• Act as the product manager and delivery lead for Axon’s Finance Systems, including consolidation, revenue, close management, and reporting platforms.
• Lead the Finance & Accounting Consolidation implementation end-to-end: scope definition, roadmap planning, delivery execution, stakeholder alignment, and value realization.
• Own the RevStream upgrade and future revenue system enhancements, ensuring alignment with revenue recognition standards and Finance strategy.
• Translate complex finance, accounting, and compliance requirements into clear product requirements, prioritized backlogs, and phased delivery plans.
• Drive cross-functional execution across Finance, IT, Engineering, Data, and external vendors.
• Own release planning, UAT strategy, cutover readiness, and post-implementation adoption.
• Ensure regulatory, statutory, and tax requirements (GAAP, statutory reporting, GAAP-to-Tax, Pillar 2, revenue recognition) are embedded into product scope and validated.
• Serve as the system/product owner for assigned Finance Systems, accountable for roadmap prioritization, tradeoffs, and platform health.
• Establish governance for finance system changes, data quality, financial hierarchies, and master data in partnership with Finance and MDM teams.
• Partner with solution architects and engineering leaders to review designs and manage dependencies (without owning technical architecture).
• Define success metrics, track adoption, and communicate outcomes, risks, and tradeoffs to Finance and IT leadership.
• Identify opportunities to reduce manual effort, improve controls, and scale finance operations through automation and workflow improvements.
