About the role

Hybrid accounting/systems/AI leadership role building and deploying AI-enabled accounting workflows. Serves as the technical backbone of the finance/accounting tech stack, leading design, deployment, and liaison with engineering for home-grown tooling, with a focus on automation, systems optimization, and SOX-aligned controls.

Responsibilities

  • Lead Accounting transformation through systems and automation
  • Own project plans, timelines, milestones, dependencies, risks, and executive-level status reporting across multiple initiatives.
  • Optimize NetSuite (GL, subledgers, workflows, saved searches, SuiteScript customizations) and Salesforce (quote-to-cash, CPQ integration points relevant to revenue/billing), and internally developed systems.
  • Identify, design, and deploy AI agents/LLM-based tools to automate manual accounting processes (reconciliations, close tasks, variance analysis, journal entry prep, reporting)
  • Partner with engineering on home-grown internal tools used by accounting/finance, translating business requirements into technical specs
  • Build and maintain integrations between NetSuite, our proprietary systems, and other internal tools and systems
  • Support Finance Department with systems/reporting needs (dashboards, data pipelines, ad hoc automation)
  • Drive cross-functional alignment across Accounting, Finance, Operations, Product, Engineering, Solution Architecture, Internal Controls, and implementation partners.
  • Evaluate and pilot new AI/automation vendor tools; build the business case for adoption
  • Document processes and maintain system controls in coordination with SOX/audit requirements
  • Train accounting/finance staff on new tools and workflows

Qualifications

  • 7–10 years combined experience in accounting/finance operations and systems administration, including leading implementations, transformation initiatives, or enterprise systems projects
  • Demonstrated experience taking ownership of projects from planning through execution, testing/UAT, training, and go-live.
  • Demonstrated experience building or deploying AI/LLM-based automation (agents, workflow automation, RPA, or similar) — not just "AI-curious," actual hands-on build experience
  • Strong understanding of accounting processes (close, reconciliations, revenue) sufficient to identify automation opportunities
  • Comfort working directly with engineers on technical requirements/integrations
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, MIS, or Computer Science
