About The Position

We are looking for a Finance Operations & Automation Specialist to build and optimize Zenduit’s finance “operating system.” This role goes beyond traditional accounting—it is focused on designing exception-driven workflows, automation pipelines, and audit-ready controls that reduce manual effort and improve accuracy. You will still support core finance operations, but your primary impact will come from systemizing processes, reducing cycle times, and enabling an exceptions-only finance model.

Requirements

• Reconciliations, close processes, AR/AP operations
• Variance analysis and control design
• Experience with tools like Zoho Flow, Deluge, Zapier, Make, n8n (or similar)
• Strong spreadsheet/data handling skills
• Use AI for anomaly detection, classification, reporting narratives
• Maintain governance with human approvals and audit trails

Nice To Haves

• Builder mentality: you automate repetitive work
• Controls-first: automation with auditability
• Structured thinker: SOPs, checklists, measurable improvements
• Comfortable navigating messy, multi-system environments
• SaaS Finance Ops / Systems Accountant
• Ex-audit professionals with strong process mindset
• RevOps / Billing Ops (SaaS) professionals
• Zoho ecosystem consultants or automation specialists

Responsibilities

• Design and implement exception-based workflows across AR, AP, and month-end close
• Build validation gates to catch errors before invoicing or payment processing
• Create human-in-the-loop workflows (automation proposes → human approves → system logs evidence)
• Build controls-by-design (approvals, segregation of duties, traceability)
• Maintain and automate a monthly Close Binder
• Run recurring control checks (discount approvals, pricing compliance, duplicate vendors)
• Support month-end close: reconciliations, accruals, variance analysis
• Maintain strong AR/AP hygiene (aging, collections, coding, approvals)
• Ensure compliance with accounting standards and tax requirements (with oversight as needed)
• Build system checks across Zoho CRM ↔ Zoho Books ↔ Zoho Inventory
• Ensure: Closed-won deals → correctly invoiced/subscribed, Shipments/activations → billed accurately, Credits/refunds → approved, categorized, and analyzed
• Implement guardrails for pricebooks, reseller tiers, and margin floors
• Build weekly finance scorecards (cash, AR, margins, exceptions)
• Use AI to draft variance narratives and exception summaries
• Enable self-serve analytics and operational insights

Benefits

• Build a modern, AI-enabled finance function from the ground up
• Work on real operational complexity (SaaS + hardware + global pricing)
• Direct impact on business efficiency, margins, and scalability
• Opportunity to shape the future of finance operations in a high-growth environment
