Requirements

• 7–10 years of progressive accounting experience, with meaningful time inside SaaS or subscription businesses
• You’ve built processes, not just inherited them
• Strong command of US GAAP, ASC 606, and SaaS-specific accounting nuances (ARR, deferred revenue, commissions under ASC 340-40)
• Experience owning the external audit relationship end-to-end
• Hands-on with tools — comfortable with Rillet, Ramp, and Salesforce
• Automation-oriented mindset — you’re always asking “why are we doing this manually?” and you do something about it
• Clear, direct communicator who can translate numbers into narrative for non-finance stakeholders

Responsibilities

• Lead the monthly, quarterly, and annual close — on time, every time, with a clear audit trail
• Build and improve scalable accounting processes — AP, AR, payroll, fixed assets, equity — from the ground up where needed
• Manage our tech stack (QuickBooks/Intacct, Salesforce, Rillet, Ramp) and drive automation to reduce manual work
• Own revenue recognition under ASC 606
• Own and manage the annual external audit
• Partner with Sales Ops on the full quote-to-cash cycle, to ensure clean revenue recognition, ARR reporting, and commissions calculations.
• Establish and maintain the internal control environment — documented policies, clean reconciliations, and a foundation that scales as we grow
• Prepare financial statements and support tax filings and board-level reporting
• Partner with the CFO on budgeting, forecasting, and strategic finance projects as the company grows
• Mentor and develop the Sr. Accountant; model what great finance culture looks like
