About the role

Lead for reconciliation, controls, and financial data integrity across Anthropic's Billing Platform, ensuring SOX-compliant controls, audit evidence, and accurate billing across subscriptions, usage billing, invoicing, and payments.

Responsibilities

  • Own reconciliation and accuracy checks for critical billing data (quantity, price, discounts, and invoices) across product platform, third-party billing and payment providers, app stores, cloud marketplaces, and in-house systems
  • Design and run detective controls that catch billing errors before they reach the accounting books
  • Partner with billing engineering teams to turn repeat checks into automated verifiers
  • Review billing changes that have financial impact, flag those touching SOX or IT application controls (ITACs), and ensure functional test evidence is in place
  • Make SOX review a standard, lightweight step in how billing changes ship, treated like a security review
  • Own the end-to-end test strategy and audit evidence for those changes, collaborating with Finance Systems, Data Engineering, Accounting, and Internal Audit
  • Triage billing errors, prioritize backfills and fixes with owning teams, and track materiality over time
  • Define and maintain data contracts between billing and finance systems
  • Lead the working group of reconciliation and controls owners across billing engineering teams
  • Act as Billing owner, alongside Accounting and Finance Systems, for translating product/pricing roadmap into financial impact, test strategy, and process updates

Qualifications

  • Experience building or owning a financial ledger, billing reconciliation, or cash reconciliation system end to end, relied upon by Accounting to close books
  • Hands-on SQL skills capable of matching and diagnosing two messy datasets (e.g., usage events and invoices) and explaining root causes
  • Accounting domain knowledge (order to cash, month-end close, materiality) sufficient to assess financial impact of billing changes
  • Experience with SOX and Internal Audit on IT application controls, detective controls, transaction monitoring, functional test evidence, and auditor walkthroughs
  • Experience defining data contracts between billing/product systems and finance systems such as ERP, GL, or revenue recognition
  • Track record of driving work across Engineering, Finance, Accounting, and Audit without direct authority
  • Ability to explain technical issues to Finance/auditors and financial risk to engineers
  • Interest in AI and commitment to Anthropic's mission
