About the role
Senior Accounting Operations Analyst responsible for managing full accounts payable cycle, vendor payments, and month-end close support in a fast-paced, high-growth enterprise AI environment. Onsite in Redwood City, CA.
Responsibilities
- Process and review high-volume vendor invoices end-to-end: receipt, coding, two-way PO matching, approval routing, and posting in NetSuite; manage the AP inbox and ensure all invoices are processed accurately and on time.
- Execute domestic and international payment runs (ACH, wire, check, virtual card); manage payment scheduling and coordinate with Treasury to optimize cash flow.
- Own vendor onboarding and maintenance including W-9/W-8 collection, banking detail verification, and vendor master data integrity in NetSuite and Coupa; serve as the primary point of contact for vendor inquiries and dispute resolution.
- Drive process improvement initiatives across the full procure-to-pay cycle: identify manual bottlenecks, champion automation opportunities in Coupa and NetSuite, and leverage Agentic AI / generative AI to reduce invoice cycle times and exception rates.
- Support month-end and quarter-end close by preparing AP aging reports, accruals, prepaid amortization schedules, and balance sheet reconciliations; ensure accurate cut-off and timely reporting to the Controller.
- Maintain robust internal controls over AP, including SOX-compliant documentation, duplicate-payment detection, segregation of duties, and audit-ready transaction records; support Auditors and internal audit reviews.
- Collaborate cross-functionally with Procurement, Legal, and FP&A on PO compliance, budget coding accuracy, and supplier contract terms; surface data-driven insights on DPO, payment trends, and spend analytics.
Qualifications

- Hands-on proficiency with NetSuite (AP module, payment runs, saved searches) and Coupa (invoicing, purchase orders, supplier portal, spend analytics); NetSuite–Coupa integration experience preferred.
- Track record of driving AP process improvements: automation of invoice workflows, exception reduction, cycle-time compression; AI-assisted AP tools experience is a differentiator.
- Solid understanding of U.S. GAAP as applied to accounts payable, accruals, and prepaid expenses; familiarity with SOX controls and internal audit requirements in a public-company environment.
- Experience managing domestic and international vendor payments (ACH, wire, check, virtual card); knowledge of cross-border payment platforms a plus.
