Job description

GAQ327R240

While candidates in the listed location(s) are encouraged for this role, candidates in other locations will be considered.

We're building a finance function that stays ahead of the curve — maximizing self-serve AI capabilities while driving an AI-first automation roadmap to operate at the pace Databricks demands. The Accounting Manager, Accounts Receivable, will serve as a senior individual contributor owning end-to-end technical AR accounting across global AR balances and multiple legal entities, leading multi-entity subledger consolidations as our global footprint expands.

Working within a structured preparer/reviewer framework in close partnership with the broader Order-to-Cash (OTC), Revenue, and Finance Transformation teams, this high-ownership role bridges technical accounting rigor with cross-functional operational scale.

Close quality, accurate management reporting, and subledger integrity are non-negotiable. Success in this role requires both strong operational execution and sound technical accounting judgment - applying U.S. GAAP to complex global receivables matters, bad debt modeling, and close accruals to ensure an audit-ready subledger. You will own a high-quality close today while directly shaping how our global receivables accounting operates tomorrow, using an AI-first automation mindset to scale our processes alongside rapid company growth.

The impact you will have:

• Own the Global AR Month-End Close: Autonomously lead the monthly close cycle for Global AR balances, preparing end-to-end subledger-to-GL reconciliations, roll-forward schedules, unbilled revenue, deferred revenue adjustments, contra-AR, complex close accruals, and AR management reporting with clear analysis of material movements and key drivers.
• Technical Accounting AFDA Modeling: Own the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts (AFDA) and Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) accounting models; assess underlying assumptions and portfolio trends, prepare monthly provision recommendations, process approved write-offs with full audit trails, and ensure technical U.S. GAAP compliance
• Lead AI Automation Adoption: Lead the identification, design, and adoption of AI and automation opportunities across AR accounting workflows, leveraging Databricks, LLMs, and advanced analytics to automate manual reconciliations, improve accrual accuracy, strengthen controls, and accelerate period closes.
• Maintain Balance Sheet Integrity: Own AR subledger integrity, flux analyses, variance explanations, and period-over-period movement schedules, providing clear management insights into AR trends, material movements, and key balance sheet drivers for senior Finance leadership.
• Drive Audit Readiness SOX Controls: Maintain audit-ready workpapers and process documentation; serve as the primary point of contact for internal and external auditors regarding AR schedules, walkthroughs, and audit request responses.
• Cross-Functional Process Alignment: Partner with Billing Operations, Cash
