Job Title: Senior Accountant (Technical Accountant w/ SaaS Expertise)

We are looking for a highly skilled Senior Accountant with strong technical accounting skills and a solid understanding of SaaS accounting to join our dynamic finance team.

In this role, you will play an essential part in ensuring our financial statements are accurate and in compliance with GAAP, particularly with respect to ASC 606 and ASC 340. Your expertise will support our month-end close process, balance sheet analysis, and overall financial reporting, ensuring that all accounting practices meet the highest standards of accuracy and transparency.

As a Senior Accountant, you will take the lead on our month-end and quarter-end close processes. This means you will be responsible for preparing and posting journal entries related to revenue, deferred revenue, accruals, and prepaid expenses, while performing thorough balance sheet reconciliations and account analyses to identify any discrepancies. You will also work closely with our Finance, Sales, and Operations teams to maintain the integrity of our financial data and ensure that revenue recognition for our subscription-based contracts is handled accurately.

Your technical accounting responsibilities will include researching and applying complex accounting guidance, preparing detailed accounting memos for new transactions, and ensuring that our internal accounting policies and procedures are up-to-date with industry best practices. You will support external audits by preparing comprehensive documentation and schedules that illustrate our adherence to compliance standards. Your role will also involve monitoring and analyzing key SaaS metrics such as ARR, MRR, churn, and customer lifetime value, which are essential for our business growth.

In addition to these responsibilities, you will work on enhancing and automating our financial processes, including improvements related to revenue recognition, billing, and reporting. Your involvement in ERP and accounting software system optimization will help drive our business forward, ensuring that our systems are both efficient and effective. We value your ability to identify process improvements that optimize our month-end close and reporting cycles, further contributing to our overall operational excellence.

To be successful in this role, you should hold a bachelor’s degree in accounting, Finance, or a related field, and ideally be a CPA or actively working toward your certification. You should have over five years of accounting experience, with a significant portion in a SaaS or technology environment. A deep knowledge of GAAP, ASC 606, and subscription-based revenue models is essential, as is your experience with month-end close procedures, balance sheet reconciliations, and financial reporting.

Proficiency in Excel and familiarity with ERP and accounting software such as NetSuite, QuickBooks, Intacct, or Zuora are key to managing the technical aspects of this position.

Joining our team means you will be part of a high-growth SaaS company that values innovation,

collaboration, and professional development.

We offer a competitive salary, a comprehensive benefits package, and numerous opportunities for career advancement. If you are looking for a challenging yet rewarding role where you can apply your technical accounting skills and deep understanding of SaaS accounting, we would love to hear from you.
