Senior Accountant - Accounts Payable & Procure-to-Pay

About the role

This is a foundational hire on a newly formed in-house team, owning the procure-to-pay cycle end to end. Payables span GPU and server purchases, colocation and power agreements, network capacity, and a fast-growing operating expense base across multiple sites and states.

Responsibilities

• Own full-cycle accounts payable: invoice intake, coding, approval routing, 2- and 3-way match against purchase orders and receiving documentation, and payment execution
• Manage the exception and payment-hold queue as the primary point of resolution, working root causes rather than clearing symptoms
• Execute payment runs across ACH, wire, and card, with disciplined controls around tiered approval thresholds, wire release, vendor bank detail changes, and payment fraud prevention
• Own vendor master data integrity, including onboarding, W-9 and W-8 collection, and periodic review
• Partner with Infrastructure and Procurement on hardware and data center spend such as deposits and progress payments, shipment and receipt timing, and the documentation needed to establish in-service dates
• Ensure capital versus expense classification is applied consistently at the point of coding, and flag items requiring technical accounting review
• Track construction-in-progress activity and support the roll-forward of capitalized costs
• Flag colocation, hosting, and equipment agreements that may contain embedded leases for accounting review under ASC 842
• Close and accruals: Prepare the accrual for received-not-invoiced goods and services with focus on completeness, such as variable and high-value infrastructure costs including power, bandwidth, colocation etc. where invoices arrive after close
• Reconcile AP subledger to the general ledger, along with accrued liabilities, prepaid expenses, and corporate card clearing accounts
• Prepare audit-ready support and respond to auditor requests on payables, accruals, and search for unrecorded liabilities
• Administer reimbursement and corporate card programs on Ramp, including receipt and policy compliance review
• Manage annual 1099 and applicable information reporting
• Support use tax and property tax accrual through accurate coding of equipment purchases across our operating states
• Document AP policies, procedures, and controls, with segregation of duties designed for a company preparing for future public-company requirements

Requirements

• 4+ years of accounting experience with substantial ownership of the AP or procure-to-pay cycle
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field
• Solid understanding of accrual accounting and month-end close, including the judgment required to build a complete accrual with imperfect information
• High-volume, high-dollar payment experience with a control mindset
• Comfort operating without an established process and building documentation as you go

Preferred

• CPA or CPA candidate
• Data center, infrastructure, hardware, manufacturing, or construction industry background
• Working knowledge of fixed asset accounting and capitalization policy
• NetSuite or comparable ERP experience
• Experience with AP automation and spend platforms such as Ramp, Bill, or Coupa
• Exposure to vendor financing or equipment purchase structures
