What You’ll Do
- Run and improve the monthly/quarterly close for revenue, deferred revenue, unbilled receivables, and related balance sheet accounts—reconciliations, JEs, and flux that hold up to scrutiny.
- Perform revenue-related reconciliations and journal entries; investigate and resolve discrepancies.
- Partner early on pricing, packaging, promotions, credits/refunds, and billing logic so revenue recognition and operational readiness are clear before changes ship.
- Work with User Ops, Finance Systems, Finance Data, and Billing so that what the product and pipes produce is what the GL reflects—especially for high-volume and automated revenue streams.
- Select, implement, and improve billing and revenue systems (e.g., NetSuite, Stripe, or similar).
- Design, document, and maintain internal controls over revenue and order-to-cash; maintain audit-ready evidence (including control matrices and testing support).
How You’ll Work
- Automate workstreams—scripts, reconciliation helpers, repeatable close steps, and lightweight tooling that reduce manual drag and human error.
- Create best-in-class deliverables—clear memos, control narratives, close packages, and analyses that are easy for leadership, audit, and partners to consume.
- Create efficiencies—templates, checklists, and workflows that scale as headcount and transaction volume grow.
- Moves faster safely—pair AI-assisted drafting and exploration with your judgment on GAAP, controls, and what actually happened economically.
