We are Camunda - where your work will have real impact! Picture yourself at a company where your work isn’t just another task on a list, but a key driver of transformation for hundreds of organizations. Your work will directly shape how hundreds of enterprises like Atlassian, NASA, and Goldman Sachs – orchestrate their most critical processes to drive digital transformation.

In 2024, we crossed the $100 million mark in ARR – an incredible milestone in our growth story. We’ve been named in GP Bullhound’s 2024 Top 100 Next Unicorn list, we’ve earned Flexa’s stamp as a truly flexible workplace, and we proudly hold Great Place to Work certification in both the USA and UK. As a fully remote, global company, we’re rewriting the rules of how modern businesses operate.

And we’re just getting started! We are growing fast and on a mission to find the very best talent in the world. If you’re ready to bring your bold ideas to a fast-paced, dynamic team, keep reading – this role could be the one you’ve been waiting for.

The Senior GL Accountant is a key member of Camunda’s lean, high-performing Accounting team. You’ll take ownership of critical areas across our global month-end close, ensuring accurate, compliant, and audit-ready financials for all entities. From intercompany reconciliations to complex journal entries and documentation standards, your work directly impacts our financial integrity and operational maturity.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives on precision, process leadership, and working at the intersection of Accounting, Systems, and Strategy. You’ll collaborate with experts in FP&A, Tax, Legal, and Treasury — and play a central role in advancing our automation and close efficiency in a remote-first, fast-scaling company.

What you'll be doing:

• Lead close activities across multiple global entities (DE, US, UK, SG), including preparation and review of complex journal entries, accruals, reclassifications, and reconciliations.
• Ensure timely and accurate financial reporting by applying IFRS and local GAAP, reviewing accounting treatment consistently and reviewing accounting treatment against Camunda’s group policies.
• Maintain complete and reliable audit documentation, including account analysis, control evidence, and variance commentaries to support external audits and internal reviews.
• Drive accounting process improvements by identifying opportunities for automation, standardization, and improved reconciliation quality in a lean, remote environment.
• Strengthen cross-functional alignment by collaborating with FP&A, Tax, Legal, and Treasury to resolve accounting issues and ensure statutory and management reporting requirements are met.
  
  

What you bring:

• Ability and/or willingness to use our product.
• CPA or equivalent certification, e.g. Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
• 5+ years of experience in General Ledger (GL) accounting, including close ownership, preparing accurate journal entries, reconciliations and financial reporting across multiple entities under tight deadlines.
• Strong technical accounting knowledge (IFRS/local GAAP) and experience preparing for audits and working with external auditors.
• Proven ability to implement and improve internal controls and process documentation aligned with audit-readiness and compliance standards.
• Excellent stakeholder communication skills, with the ability to explain accounting topics clearly to non-finance colleagues and lead cross-functional alignment.
• Hands-on experience with NetSuite and/or FloQast, or proven capability as a power user in similar ERP and close management systems.
  
  

Nice to haves:

• Experience in a remote, global, or high-growth SaaS company, handling international entities and intercompany eliminations.
• Prior involvement in system enhancements, automation initiatives, or finance tool implementations (e.g. Brex, Zip, Kyriba).
• Familiarity with Lean Finance practices and operating in an asynchronous work culture.
