Qualified Accountant (ACA, ACCA, CPA, or equivalent)
Experience with SOX compliance, internal controls design and testing
Demonstrated ability to operate across multiple workstreams with attention to detail, a controls mindset, and an appetite for driving process change
Ability to leverage technology, including AI, to automate processes and implement efficiencies across the control and reporting landscape

Nice To Haves

Experience in technology or infrastructure-intensive industries (telecoms, data centers, utilities, or large-scale capital-expenditure environments)
Demonstrated ongoing AI skill development (e.g., prompt/context engineering, agent orchestration) and staying current with emerging AI technologies
Background in process improvement or operational excellence within a finance function
Experience adhering to and implementing responsible, ethical AI practices (e.g., risk assessment, bias mitigation, quality and accuracy reviews)
Experience with fixed assets, leases (ASC 842), or infrastructure accounting
Familiarity with ERP systems (Oracle/Fusion, SAP) and data tools (SQL, data querying tools, or equivalent)
Experience operating in a high-growth environment with evolving systems and processes, including adapting workflows and priorities as business needs change
Demonstrated ability to integrate AI tools to optimize/redesign workflows and drive measurable impact (e.g., efficiency gains, quality improvements)
Experience partnering with cross-functional teams (Procurement, Legal, Tax, Engineering) on change management and process redesign

Responsibilities

Controls Ownership: Design, execute, and maintain SOX and operational controls across the infrastructure accounting portfolio (Capital Expenditures, Operating Expenditures, fixed assets, leases, accruals)
Close & Reporting: Support monthly and quarterly close processes, ensuring accuracy and completeness of infrastructure accounting entries and reconciliations — while identifying opportunities to streamline and transform the close cycle
Process Improvement: Identify risks and control enhancements and drive upstream/downstream process improvements to automate work and strengthen internal control compliance.
Cross-Functional Partnership: Partner with Infra Business Partners and Engineering and other cross-functional teams, including Finance, Tax, and Legal, to ensure that controls are embedded in end-to-end workflows
Audit & Compliance: Serve as a key point of contact for internal and external audit, preparing evidence packages and supporting SOX testing cycles
Systems & Automation: Collaborate on system-driven controls (subledger, Costar, Fusion, inventory, procurement systems) and support automation initiatives to improve the control effectiveness
Policy Adherence: Ensure compliance with Meta accounting policies (including ASC 606, fixed asset capitalization, and milestone acceptance frameworks)
Leadership & Influence: Operate as a subject matter expert on infrastructure controls, guiding team members across the organization and influencing control design decisions across the portfolio
