Full Job Description
About the Role

We're looking for a Senior Accountant to join a growing Finance team at an exciting moment in EnergyHub's evolution. You'll own key pieces of our close process and financial reporting, serve as the accounting point of contact across both the EnergyHub team and our parent company Alarm.com (Nasdaq: ALRM), and have genuine influence over how our accounting function evolves.

This is a role for someone who holds themselves to a high standard, communicates clearly across teams, and wants their work to matter beyond the month-end close.

What You'll Do
  • Lead EnergyHub's month-end close process - journal entries, account reconciliations, and supporting schedules prepared with accuracy and on time
  • Prepare and review financial statements and management reports in compliance with U.S. GAAP
  • Review and evaluate contracts for revenue recognition under ASC 606, working closely with program managers to ensure key terms are captured correctly
  • Support external audits, including preparation of workpapers and direct coordination with auditors
  • Assist with accounts receivable and invoicing processes, including coordination with customer success and operations teams to resolve open items
  • Partner with FP&A on monthly, quarterly, and annual forecasting
  • Serve as the liaison between EnergyHub and Alarm.com corporate accounting - translating, escalating, and keeping both sides aligned
  • Support SOX compliance requirements as part of our public company reporting environment
  • Explain accounting requirements and the why behind them to non-accounting stakeholders - clearly, without jargon
  • Identify process gaps and build scalable solutions that improve how we operate


What We're Looking For

Must-haves
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance
  • 2-4 years of progressive accounting experience with demonstrated process ownership
  • Solid, working knowledge of U.S. GAAP
  • Experience in a public company environment
  • Strong communicator - able to hold technical standards while explaining requirements in plain language to non-accountants
  • High personal standards for accuracy, documentation, and completeness

Nice-to-haves
  • CPA license (strongly preferred)
  • Experience in SaaS, software, energy, or tech
  • Comfort building processes in a high-growth or transitional environment

How You'll Work

You take ownership of your work and hold the output to a high bar. You understand that accounting isn't just about closing the books - it's about building trust in the numbers, protecting the business, and helping other teams make better decisions. When something doesn't look right, you dig in. When a policy or requirement seems unclear to a colleague, you explain the why - because you know that understanding drives better outcomes than compliance alone.

You're comfortable working independently and navigating between teams, and you know when to escalate, when to push back, and when to just get it done.

Please note that sponsorship of new applicants for employment authorization, or any other immigration-related support, is not available for this position at this time.

Company Benefits

EnergyHub offers a generous benefits package including 100% paid medical for employees and a 401(k) with employer match. We offer a casual environment, the flexibility to set your own schedule, a fully stocked fridge and pantry, free Citi Bike membership, secure bike rack, gym subsidy, paid parental leave, and an education assistance program.

The base salary range of this opportunity is listed below and is determined within a range based on factors including qualifications, location and experience. This allows opportunity for growth and development within the role. The base salary offered is part of a total compensation package.
