This is a hands-on role that partners closely with Infra portfolio owners, Risk & Controls, Internal Audit, and Systems Controllership to ensure end-to-end controllership over one of Meta's Fixed Asset and Lease Accounting processes - spanning data center construction, fiber networks, hardware, supply chain and energy infrastructure. This role requires Big 4 experience (audit or advisory) with demonstrated controls expertise, a track record of transforming finance processes, and the ability to apply that rigor in a fast-paced, high-growth environment at scale.

Responsibilities

Controls Ownership: Design, execute, and maintain SOX and operational controls across the infrastructure accounting portfolio (CapEx, OpEx, 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 842, 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

Minimum Qualifications
• 7+ years of relevant experience in accounting, with a minimum of 3 years in a Big 4 firm (audit or advisory) or equivalent in-house controls experience
• Bachelor's degree in Economics, Accounting, Finance, Math, Statistics, Engineering, Computer Science, or a related discipline
• 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

Preferred Qualifications
• Experience partnering with cross-functional teams (Procurement, Legal, Tax, Engineering) on change management and process redesign
• Background in process improvement or operational excellence within a finance function
• Demonstrated ability to integrate AI tools to optimize/redesign workflows and drive measurable impact (e.g., efficiency gains, quality improvements)
• Experience with fixed assets, leases (ASC 842), or infrastructure accounting
• Experience adhering to and implementing responsible, ethical AI practices (e.g., risk assessment, bias mitigation, quality and accuracy reviews)
• Familiarity with ERP systems (Oracle/Fusion, SAP) and data tools (SQL, DataQuery, or equivalent)
• 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
• Experience operating in a high-growth environment with evolving systems and processes, including adapting workflows and priorities as business needs change
