• Proficiency with NetSuite, SAP, or a comparable ERP; strong Excel modeling and workpaper skills
• CPA (active or lapsed with plans to maintain)
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance
• Bonus: Technical accounting exposure to S-1/IPO preparation, stock-based compensation (ASC 718), or experience with FloQast/BlackLine close management tools
