- 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)
