Full Job Description
About the role

We're looking for our first Finance Systems Engineer to support and evolve our Accounting, Billing, and Finance tools to support a fast-growing business. In this role, you will focus on ensuring that our environment supports scalable, accurate, and efficient financial processes across Order to Cash and Record to Report.

You'll be a team of one initially, and in the future, the most technically sophisticated member of the Finance Systems team: the one who sets the standards, solves the hardest problems, and makes everyone around you faster and better without stepping out of the code yourself.

What you'll do
  • Own the technical architecture of Cursor's finance systems
  • Lead and execute the most complex, ambiguous implementations across Finance systems, initially starting in Order to Cash
  • Partner with Sales, Finance, Legal, and RevOps to translate messy commercial requirements into clean, scalable technical solutions
  • Champion AI-forward automation in how Finance systems are built and operated
  • Build with a strong balance of code and configuration, knowing when each is the right tool and why


You may be a fit if
  • You've owned complex Finance Systems environments and integrations as a hands on developer
  • You've implemented or fully owned an ERP or major components of one end-to-end and can speak to what broke and what you'd do differently
  • You've worked at pre-IPO companies through periods of real growth, you know what adversity looks like and you stayed through it
  • You have strong opinions about developer tooling, CI/CD, and how to maintain velocity with safety
  • You mentor by doing, pairing, building together, raising the team's technical ceiling through proximity, not PowerPoint
  • You're energized by ambiguity, move fast by default, and are burned by orgs where shipping takes a quarter
  • Years of hands-on experience matter to you more than certifications, and to us too
