  • Support the preparation of SEC filings, including drafting footnotes, management discussion and analysis (MD&A) sections, and supporting schedules
  • Design, document, and execute key SOX controls over financial reporting to ensure full compliance with internal and external audit standards
  • Collaborate with accounting teams during month-end close to reconcile variances, review accruals, and ensure GAAP compliance
  • Develop and maintain executive-level dashboards in Tableau or Power BI to track key SaaS metrics, departmental spend, and capital allocation efficiency

What We Are Looking For

  • 3-6 years of experience in corporate finance, investment banking, or public accounting (Big 4 preferred)
  • Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a highly quantitative field
  • Deep technical understanding of US GAAP, SOX compliance, and SEC reporting guidelines
  • Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel (VBA, complex nested formulas, financial modeling) and experience with ERP systems like NetSuite, Workday, or SAP
  • Strong communication skills with a proven track record of explaining financial concepts to non-finance stakeholders
  • Bonus: Active CPA license, CFA charterholder, or experience using SQL and BI tools to extract and analyze large data sets
