About the role
We are looking for an accounting professional who combines public accounting audit training with hands-on experience inside a SaaS business and is ready to take ownership of a growing technology company’s accounting function.
You may currently be an Accounting Manager, Senior Accounting Manager, or Senior Accountant with meaningful ownership of the close and revenue accounting. This is an opportunity to step into broader responsibility, partner directly with the CFO, and shape how accounting operates at Flowcode. Prior Director or Controller experience is not required.
You will personally lead the close, SaaS revenue accounting, and daily accounting operations, with support from external advisers. AI and automation will be part of how you improve the work. As you build a dependable accounting foundation, there is room to contribute to budgeting, forecasting, and business analysis.
What we are looking for
- At least two years of public accounting experience in audit or assurance at a Big Four, national, or strong regional firm.
- At least two years in an operating accounting role at a SaaS or subscription software company, with direct responsibility for the close, revenue accounting, or both.
- Practical US GAAP and ASC 606 knowledge, including subscription revenue, deferred revenue, and contract terms that affect recognition. You can explain the treatment and prepare the supporting entries and schedules.
- Experience personally preparing close work, balance-sheet reconciliations, and financial reporting, with readiness to own the full accounting cycle.
- Experience using AI and automation in real work. You can show a workflow you improved, how you checked the output, and what changed as a result.
- Strong spreadsheet and accounting systems skills, clear communication, and the judgment to resolve issues independently and bring in specialist advice when needed.
If you join you will
- Own the monthly close, general ledger, reconciliations, and accurate, timely financial statements.
- Lead SaaS revenue accounting across subscriptions, usage fees, contract amendments, and deferred revenue.
- Connect contracts, service start dates, billing, and revenue schedules so the books reflect the underlying agreements.
- Run billing, collections, payables, and payroll accounting, with clear visibility into receivables, cash, and upcoming payments.
- Build practical accounting policies, controls, and documentation, including support for equity compensation and capitalization decisions.
- Lead the audit process and coordinate tax and compliance work with external advisers.
- Improve finance systems and apply AI to recurring workflows, with measurable gains in accuracy or speed.
- Partner with the CFO on monthly reporting, budget versus actuals, and cash and expense forecasts.
What success looks like in six months
- A dependable close with supported reconciliations, clear ownership, and financial statements delivered on an agreed schedule.
- Reliable revenue schedules that tie contracts and billing to recognized revenue, deferred revenue, and receivables.
- More accurate invoicing, consistent collections follow-up, and useful visibility into cash and working capital.
- AI and automation built into recurring work, with documented checks and measurable time savings or fewer errors.
Additional strengths
- CPA certification and experience with venture-backed B2B SaaS companies.
- Experience improving subscription billing systems, cloud accounting platforms, or finance integrations.
- Interest or experience in FP&A, financial modeling, and explaining business performance to department leaders.
