Job summary

Hadrian in San Francisco seeks a hybrid accounting/systems/AI professional to be the technical backbone of our finance stack. You will design and deploy AI agents to automate reconciliations, close tasks, and journal entry prep while coordinating with engineering on home-grown tooling.

You’ll own plans, timelines, and risk across initiatives, optimize NetSuite and Salesforce integrations, and build dashboards for finance reporting.

Qualifications

7–10 years combined experience in accounting/finance operations and systems administration, including leading implementations, transformation initiatives, or enterprise systems projects.
Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, MIS, or Computer Science.
Strong understanding of accounting processes (close, reconciliations, revenue) sufficient to identify automation opportunities.
Demonstrated experience building or deploying AI/LLM-based automation (agents, workflow automation, RPA, or similar) — not just “AI-curious,” actual hands-on build experience.
Demonstrated experience taking ownership of projects from planning through execution, testing/UAT, training, and go-live.
Active CPA
Background in high-growth tech or manufacturing environment.
Scripting ability (Python, SuiteScript, or similar) for light automation/integration work.
Experience working in a fast-paced and ambiguous environment, and experience communicating complex information and solutions to senior stakeholders and influencing decisions.

Responsibilities

Lead design and deployment of AI agents to automate accounting and finance workflows.
Act as primary liaison between accounting/finance and internal engineering on home-grown tooling.
Own project plans, timelines, milestones, dependencies, risks, and executive-level status reporting across multiple initiatives.
Optimize NetSuite (GL, subledgers, workflows, saved searches, SuiteScript) and Salesforce (quote-to-cash, CPQ) integrations.
Build and maintain integrations between NetSuite, proprietary systems, and other internal tools.
Support Finance with dashboards, data pipelines, and ad hoc automation reports.
Drive cross-functional alignment across Accounting, Finance, Operations, Product, Engineering, Solution Architecture, Internal Controls, and implementation partners.
Evaluate and pilot new AI/automation vendor tools; build the business case for adoption.
Document processes and maintain system controls in coordination with SOX/audit requirements.
Train accounting/finance staff on new tools and workflows.
