Required Qualifications • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field. • 5–8 years of progressive finance experience, ideally within the technology industry. • Strong proficiency in Excel — comfortable with pivot tables, VLOOKUP/INDEX-MATCH, data manipulation, and building structured workbooks • Hands-on experience with SAP; familiarity with finance data extraction and reporting workflows. • Experience participating in or supporting UAT cycles for financial systems (SAP, CPM/Pricebook, Incorta, or NGA a strong plus). • Solid analytical skills with high attention to detail and comfort working with large data sets. • Clear and effective communicator — able to translate data findings for both finance and non-finance audiences across levels of the organization. • Demonstrated ability to manage multiple priorities and deliver accurate work under tight quarter-end deadlines.

Preferred Qualifications • Working knowledge of revenue accounting principles (ASC 606 / software revenue recognition concepts a plus). • Familiarity with Incorta, NGA product reporting, or CPM/Pricebook platforms. • CPA or MBA is a plus but not required. • Experience supporting acquisition integrations from a finance reporting perspective.
