SunnyData

1d • Remote

About The Position

At SunnyData, a leading Databricks technology partner, our mission is to empower customers with scalable architectures, robust data engineering pipelines, seamless data consumption layers, and advanced ML and AI applications. As a Global Controller, you will own the accounting backbone of a fast-scaling, multi-entity, multi-country services business and turn it into a function that can carry the company through its next stage of growth.
This is the first dedicated Controller role at SunnyData, reporting to the VP of Operations and Finance and partners closely with executive leadership. It is a builder's seat, not a caretaker's. You will own the global close, consolidation across our US parent and international subsidiaries, and the internal controls that keep a multi-currency, intercompany business clean and audit-ready. Success looks like a faster, tighter close, consolidated financials you can stand behind, transfer pricing and intercompany flows that hold up under scrutiny, and a finance function that gives leadership real-time visibility instead of month-old answers.

Requirements

• 7+ years of progressive accounting leadership, with recent experience owning the close and consolidation for a multi-entity organization.
• Active US CPA.
• Hands-on accounting experience in a professional services or technology consulting business.
• Demonstrated experience consolidating multiple legal entities, including intercompany transactions and multi-currency reporting.
• Deep command of US GAAP, financial reporting, and internal controls.
• Proven track record managing external audits and coordinating tax compliance across entities.
• Experience managing accounting staff and directing third-party providers or outsourced accounting partners.
• A track record of standing up or materially improving accounting processes, not just maintaining them.
• Clear, plain communicator who makes finance accessible and actionable to non-finance stakeholders.

Nice To Haves

• Direct experience with Latin American entities, ideally Uruguay, Argentina, or Mexico, including local statutory, payroll, and tax considerations.
• Familiarity with transfer pricing documentation and intercompany financing structures across borders.
• Professional Spanish proficiency.
• Experience leading or supporting an ERP migration in a scaling company.
• Working knowledge of purchase price allocation and acquisition integration.
• Experience building and managing accounting teams across multiple countries.

Responsibilities

• Own the end-to-end monthly close across the US parent and international subsidiaries (Uruguay, Argentina, Mexico, and Nepal), including consolidation, intercompany eliminations, and multi-currency revaluation.
• Design and operate scalable controls across the sales-to-cash and procure-to-pay cycles, balancing rigor with the agility a high-growth company needs.
• Maintain intercompany billing, financing, and cost-allocation flows in line with our transfer pricing framework, partnering with external advisors across jurisdictions.
• Manage external audits, tax filings, and statutory compliance across entities in partnership with third-party providers in each country.
• Support cash flow reporting, FX exposure, and working capital management across currencies and banking relationships.
• Lead long-term business planning, annual budgeting, and rolling forecasts in alignment with corporate goals.
• Manage and develop our Accounting Manager based in Uruguay, and direct the third-party accounting partners who support statutory, tax, and payroll work across our entities. The team will grow as the company scales.

Benefits

• Health Insurance: Employees and their eligible family members including spouses, domestic partners, and children are eligible for coverage from the first day of employment.
• Paid Time Off: Start your career at SunnyData with a minimum of 15 days Paid Time Off annually, plus nine paid company Holidays.
• An opportunity to grow your technical and people skills, lead teams on complex projects that are highly innovative and cutting edge. Great opportunity to grow in your career with the right level of focus, innovation and customer centricity with a high growth consulting company dedicated to Databricks.
