• Manage revenue arrangements in NetSuite, configuring and validating start/end dates, revenue schedules, billing data, and subsidiary ledger entries.

• Drive end-to-end monthly and quarterly revenue close activities, preparing journal entries, revenue deferrals, accruals, and variance analyses.

• Oversee tracking and milestone-based recognition for project-based revenue, ensuring deliverables are timely and well-documented.

• Maintain standalone selling price (SSP) allocation models and prepare comprehensive, audit-ready documentation for external auditors and internal SOX compliance.

• Reconcile revenue data seamlessly across Salesforce, NetSuite, and internal reporting tools to ensure unwavering consistency.

• Partner cross-functionally with Sales, Legal, and Operations, serving as the primary escalation point for revenue coding issues and proactive process fixes.

• Collaborate with FP&A to support revenue forecasting, partner rebate programs, sales reserves accruals, and ad-hoc financial analysis.

• Support state and government-funded project revenue, carefully navigating special handling requirements and mixed-product accounting treatments.

• Champion automation and process improvement initiatives to streamline revenue reporting, reduce manual effort, and strengthen compliance frameworks.

• Mentor and guide junior revenue analysts and accountants, reviewing their work to elevate team performance and ensure quality compliance.

Requirements

• 12 - 15 years of progressive experience in revenue accounting, revenue operations, or general accounting, ideally in a SaaS, hardware, or mixed-technology environment.

• Expert-level understanding of ASC 606, including revenue recognition for multiple performance obligations, variable consideration, and contract modifications.

• Hands-on expertise with ERP systems (NetSuite strongly preferred) and CRM platforms (Salesforce).

• Advanced proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets and a methodical approach to close execution and audit documentation.

• Demonstrated track record of executing process automation, operational improvement projects, and successful external audit/SOX compliance cycles.

• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills with the ability to influence cross-functional stakeholders.
