Technical Accounting & Financial Reporting, Senior Manager

About the Role

We're seeking a Technical Accounting Lead to join our team and play a pivotal role in building the financial infrastructure for Fluidstack, a rapidly growing data center hyperscaler. You'll own technical accounting positions, run the financial reporting close, and stand up accounting policies and controls from the ground up.

Responsibilities

• Own technical accounting positions across revenue recognition, leases, project finance, and equity, writing memos that document how the company accounts for first-of-a-kind data center transactions.
• Run the financial reporting close and produce accurate financial statements on a fast cycle as the company scales toward audit and public-company readiness.
• Stand up technical accounting policies and controls from the ground up on a lean finance stack (NetSuite, Zip, Shareworks, Pigment).
• Manage the external audit relationship, preparing the support and positions that let auditors sign off without surprises.
• Partner with strategic finance, legal, and commercial teams to structure and account for complex, high-value transactions correctly the first time.

Qualifications

• Experience writing technical accounting memos on complex areas such as revenue recognition, leases, business combinations, or equity, with a track record of holding up under audit scrutiny.
• Proven experience owning a financial reporting close and producing GAAP financial statements on a demanding timeline.
• Demonstrated ability to build accounting policies, processes, or controls from scratch rather than maintaining a mature function.
• Experience managing external auditors through a full audit and resolving contentious positions without timeline delays.
• Strong problem-solving skills, with experience working through the accounting for novel or complex transactions with limited precedent.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to explain technical accounting conclusions clearly to non-accountants.

Skills

• CPA preferred.
• Big Four technical accounting or national-office background a plus.
• Capital-intensive industry experience (data centers, energy, real estate, infrastructure) preferred.
• NetSuite or comparable ERP implementation experience a plus.
• Pre-IPO or audit-readiness experience advantageous.
