About The Position

PureLogic IT is seeking a Senior Revenue Accountant with deep technical mastery of NetSuite Advanced Revenue Management (ARM) or equivalent. In this role, you will manage the complex revenue lifecycle for high-value Canadian Federal Government accounts. You will be responsible for ensuring that multi-element arrangements—spanning hardware delivery, software licensing, and milestone-based professional services—are accurately recognized in compliance with ASC 606 / ASPE 3400.

Requirements

Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance; CPA designation (active or in-progress) is highly preferred.
Minimum 2+ years of hands-on experience specifically with the NetSuite ARM module or equivalent.
Experience in an IT Reseller or VAR (Value-Added Reseller) environment, handling the specific nuances of hardware shipping vs. service delivery.
Strong understanding of ASC 606 and ASPE 3400 revenue standards.
Advanced Excel proficiency for data validation and reporting between NetSuite and external project tracking tools.

Nice To Haves

Familiarity with Canadian Public Sector Accounting Standards (PSAS) or Federal contracting rules is an asset.
Experience with NetSuite SuiteBilling or Project Accounting modules.
Prior experience dealing with Shared Services Canada (SSC) or Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) billing requirements.
Prior knowledge of government procurement vehicles is a significant asset for supporting federal accounts.

Responsibilities

Own the end-to-end ARM workflow. Configure revenue recognition rules, templates, and triggers to automate the transition from Sales Order to Revenue Arrangement and Revenue Plan.
Manage complex transaction price allocations across hardware, software, and services. Maintain Fair Value Price Lists and formulas to ensure accurate "carve-outs" for bundled government contracts.
Analyze federal procurement contracts to identify distinct Performance Obligations (POs). Determine appropriate recognition timing (point-in-time for hardware vs. over-time for services/SaaS).
Track project-based revenue for solution implementations. Use NetSuite to manage revenue recognition based on milestones or percentage of completion.
Lead revenue-related close activities, including deferred revenue reconciliations, unbilled AR analysis, and contract asset/liability management.
Ensure all revenue treatment adheres to ASC 606 / ASPE 3400 standards. Provide system-generated audit trails for annual reviews and potential government-specific audits.
