This position reports to the Controller in our Horsham, Pennsylvania headquarters and is on-site five days a week.

What You’ll Do:

Revenue recognition and close 

• Prepare the monthly revenue close, including revenue, deferred revenue, contract assets, unbilled receivables, commissions, and related journal entries, and review revenue schedules and adjustments before posting
• Apply the ASC 606 five-step model to customer contracts: identify the enforceable contract and performance obligations, determine transaction price (including variable consideration, credits, rebates, refunds, and price protections), allocate based on standalone selling price, and determine point-in-time vs. over-time recognition
• Analyze nonstandard and complex arrangements, including modifications, renewals, expansions, terminations, principal vs. agent, material rights, upfront fees, and breakage, and draft audit-ready revenue memos
• Reconcile Salesforce CPQ, billing and revenue data in NetSuite, accounts receivable, cash, and the general ledger; prepare deferred revenue rollforwards and supporting schedules, and resolve discrepancies quickly

Process, systems, and team leadership 

• Review customer contracts and order forms with Deal Desk, Sales, and Legal to flag revenue impacts before deals are booked, and escalate contract, billing, and system risks
• Train Sales, Deal Desk, and Billing on contract terms that affect revenue recognition
• Maintain revenue close controls and documentation, support SOX-ready processes, and prepare audit support, control evidence, and revenue disclosure schedules
• Support the Controller on technical accounting positions and revenue policy updates
• Help set up new products, pricing, and integrations in NetSuite, and improve revenue processes and automation
• Build revenue dashboards and key metrics, such as deferred revenue rollforwards, unbilled balances, and close exceptions, for Finance leadership
• Support the capitalization and amortization of sales commissions under ASC 340-40, using commission data from Salesforce Spiff

What You’ve Done:

Required

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field
• 3–5 years of progressive accounting experience, including at least 2 years applying ASC 606 to customer contracts in a SaaS, software, or subscription business
• Strong U.S. GAAP, month-end close, reconciliation, financial reporting, and audit support experience
• Advanced Excel and Google Sheets skills, including pivot tables, lookups, and large data sets
• Ability to interpret customer contracts and clearly explain accounting conclusions to finance and non-finance partners

Preferred

• Active U.S. CPA, or public accounting audit experience with technology clients a plus
• Experience with NetSuite and Salesforce CPQ a plus
• Experience with multi-entity, multi-currency, or international SaaS operations

• Fewer manual journal entries, reconciling items, close exceptions, and audit adjustments
