Experience: Mid Level

Salary: $100,000 - $130,000 per year

• Own the transition from outsourced to in-house accounting — take over books, processes, and vendor relationships (bookkeeping firm, tax preparer) currently run externally, and rebuild them as an internal function with proper controls.
• Run month-end and year-end close — journal entries, reconciliations, accruals, and a close calendar that gets faster and tighter each cycle.
• Lead implementation of Campfire as our accounting system of record — chart of accounts design, data migration, integrations, and internal training, following a project plan you help define.
• Manage revenue recognition for Obvio's municipal contracts — including revenue-share arrangements and percentage-of-completion structures that don't fit off-the-shelf SaaS revenue models, in partnership with Finance leadership.
• Own AP, AR, and payroll processing — vendor payments, municipal billing and collections, expense management, and payroll/benefits administration (directly or via a payroll provider).
• Prepare accurate, timely financial statements — P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow, with account-level detail Finance leadership can trust for board and investor reporting.
• Build the internal controls and documentation a growing company needs — policies, SOPs, and audit-ready work papers ahead of Obvio's first financial statement audit.
• Partner cross-functionally with Finance, Sales, and Operations to track unit economics and contract terms across Obvio's growing footprint of municipal ATE programs.
• Manage sales/use tax and multi-jurisdiction compliance as Obvio's municipal footprint expands across states.

• 5–10 years of progressive accounting experience, including time in an Accounting Manager, Senior Accountant, or Controller-track role.
• Direct experience transitioning a company's books from an outsourced provider to an in-house function — you've done this before and know where the landmines are.
• Hands-on ERP/accounting system implementation experience (Campfire, Net Suite, Sage Intacct, Quick Books Online, or similar) — chart of accounts design, migration, and rollout.
• Full-cycle month-end close ownership, from journal entries through finalized financial statements.
• Comfort operating without a large team around you — you're equally happy doing the transactional work yourself and building the process that eventually lets you delegate it.
• Strong Excel skills and a genuine interest in efficient, well-documented processes.
• Experience in a hardware, hardware-enabled-services, or similarly operationally complex business (physical asset deployment, field operations, multi-site billing) is a strong plus.
• CPA or CPA-track strongly preferred.

• Experience with revenue-share, usage-based, or percentage-of-completion revenue models.
• Experience with government or municipal contracts and public-sector billing/collections.
• Prior experience preparing a company for its first financial statement audit.
• Exposure to AI/automation tools for close, reconciliation, or reporting workflows.

Our client is building the intelligence layer for safer streets globally.

• Fast growing company
• Great benefits
• Strong culture
