You will serve as the primary accounting point of contact for finance and partner teams at AWS, Google, and Microsoft. Internally, you will partner with Finance, FAB, Engineering, and business teams to transform partner billing feeds into accurate, auditable revenue. A key focus is leading the automation of a close process that remains heavily manual.

- Own quarter-end deliverables including footnote disclosures, flux commentary, and presentations to leadership and Corporate Accounting
- Serve as primary contact for external auditors
- Review work of accountants and contractors, set the close calendar, and maintain audit-ready close packages
- Own monthly and quarterly 3P revenue reporting for leadership and FP&A by partner, model, product, region, and customer
- Review partner usage, invoice, disbursement, and fraud reports monthly; resolve data issues before close
- Serve as accounting point of contact for finance, engineering, and product teams; drive reporting improvements supporting on-time close
- Apply ASC 606 to 3P arrangements including principal-vs-agent, variable consideration, and reseller arrangements
- Estimate and document reserves including credit loss (ASC 326)
- Assess accounting for new 3P products, programs, and billing changes, partnering with Technical Accounting on complex judgments
- Partner with Engineering teams to automate manual close processes including SQL-driven workbooks, automated reconciliations, and system-generated journal entries
- Own 3P SOX controls including design, documentation, gap remediation, and audit evidence
- Partner with FP&A, Treasury, AR, and business teams on forecasts, cash, and partner disputes
Requirements:
- Strong ASC 606 knowledge, especially principal-vs-agent, variable consideration, consideration payable to a customer, and consumption-based revenue
- Owned a month-end close with tight deadlines and reviewed journal entries, reconciliations, and flux analysis
- Built revenue reporting from large, imperfect third-party data sets and reconciled to general ledger
- Managed external partner relationships depending on their data and pushed for fixes
- Strong SQL skills (BigQuery or similar) and experience automating close workbooks or reconciliations
- Designed or operated SOX controls and supported external audits
- Clear communication with accounting, finance, business, and engineering teams
- Ability to thrive in fast-paced, ambiguous environments where processes are still being built
Preferred Qualifications:
- 10+ years of progressive accounting experience, including 3+ years managing revenue accounting or close teams

- Big 4 audit experience combined with industry experience at high-growth tech or SaaS company
