  • Own customer billing operations, collections workflows, AR reporting, and short-term cash collections forecasting
  • Prepare monthly close schedules, reconciliations, workpapers, and operational reporting as accounting operations transition in-house
  • Serve as a key point of contact for external auditors by preparing support, responding to requests, and helping drive audit readiness
  • Support implementation of accounting policies, controls, and scalable operational workflows
  • Partner cross-functionally with Sales, Customer Success, and Operations to improve processes and resolve operational issues
  • Support broader finance, accounting, and operational initiatives as the company continues to scale

What You'll Bring

  • CPA designation required
  • 3+ years of accounting experience, ideally with experience at a Big 4 accounting firm
  • Strong understanding of accounting operations, month-end close, reconciliations, and core US GAAP principles
  • Experience working with ERP, billing, CRM, and banking systems in a fast-paced environment
  • Systems-oriented operator with experience building scalable processes and improving workflows
  • Comfortable working independently, navigating ambiguity, and solving operational problems proactively
  • Strong analytical, organizational, and communication skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities effectively
  • High ownership mentality with a willingness to roll up your sleeves and execute in a startup environment
  • Advanced Excel / Google Sheets skills and comfort working with large datasets and operational workflows
