About the role

This highly visible role offers the opportunity to become an integral part of a dynamic finance organization, working beyond traditional accounting across Finance, FP&A, Content, and Engineering. You’ll gain a deeper understanding of the business while ensuring accurate reporting, strong controls, and informed decision-making.

The role sits at the intersection of technical accounting, business partnership, and innovation, with exposure to SEC reporting, revenue recognition, complex transactions, and cross-functional financial analysis. It’s ideal for someone who wants to understand the story behind the numbers, challenge the status quo, and see the direct impact of their work.

Responsibilities

  • Own key components of the monthly close process, including balance sheet reconciliations, journal entries, accruals, and analysis, ensuring accurate and timely financial reporting.
  • Assist with SEC reporting, including financial statements, disclosures, supporting schedules, and quarterly and annual reporting requirements.
  • Support revenue recognition by reviewing contracts, evaluating accounting implications, and ensuring appropriate revenue treatment under U.S. GAAP.
  • Partner with Finance, FP&A, Content, Engineering, and other teams to investigate budget-to-actual variances and connect financial results to underlying business activity.
  • Analyze complex transactions and translate them into appropriate accounting treatment, documentation, and financial reporting.
  • Help strengthen internal controls and ensure compliance within a rapidly evolving business environment.
  • Evaluate accounting processes and identify opportunities to improve efficiency, scalability, and accuracy.
  • Bring a thoughtful, solutions-oriented perspective to accounting challenges and special projects.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting required; active CPA or CPA in process.
  • 5–7 years of progressive accounting experience with a strong foundation in U.S. GAAP.
  • Public company accounting or SEC reporting experience is a plus, but strong candidates ready to step into a public company environment are encouraged to apply.
  • Strong technical accounting, analytical, and problem-solving skills.
  • Ability to navigate ambiguity, manage competing priorities, and thrive in a fast-paced environment.
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to explain complex accounting concepts to non-finance partners.
  • A naturally curious mindset and genuine interest in understanding how the business operates beyond the numbers.
  • A proactive, collaborative approach and desire to continuously improve processes.
