This role asks for a seasoned accountant who has owned month end close and can now automate it for top customers. A strong candidate brings deep GAAP knowledge, hands on close experience, and the ability to build agents and turn field lessons into product. The work blends customer embedding with shipping features, so comfort with both accounting detail and building is key.

How

it fits the AI era

AI shifts the manual parts of close, like coding, reconciliations, and accruals, toward agents that run with review steps and audit trails. What stays human is judgment: defending an entry to an auditor, deciding where a person must stay in the loop, and spotting which patterns deserve to become product. The role sits where accounting expertise meets automation design.

How it builds AI experience

Building agents that do real accounting work with controls and audit trails gives direct experience in agentic finance. Working across several customers and turning repeated workarounds into reusable playbooks and product features builds practical skill in applied AI for accounting. This grows from close expertise rather than prior AI work.

Worth showing

• Month end close ownership
• GAAP and audit defense
