Job description

Description: Our mission is to automate coding. The first step in our journey is to build the best tool for professional programmers, using a combination of inventive research, design, and engineering. Our organization is very flat, and our team is small and talent dense. We particularly like people who are truth-seeking, passionate, and creative. We enjoy spirited debate, crazy ideas, and shipping code.

About the role

Cursor is rethinking how software gets built. We want the same ambition for how revenue is accounted for: one accountable owner from contract and billing reality - books - controls - reporting - audit, with processes that stay fast as the business changes. You will own that thread, build best-in-class close and controllership deliverables, and use Cursor itself to automate repetitive work, tighten documentation, and move faster with fewer errors - not as a gimmick, but as how a modern revenue team should operate. You should be comfortable going from first principles, making decisions with incomplete information, and building processes that don’t yet exist. We’re in-person in San Francisco (North Beach) and New York (Manhattan).

What you’ll do

• Run and improve the monthly/quarterly close for revenue, deferred revenue, unbilled receivables, and related balance sheet accounts - reconciliations, JEs, and flux that hold up to scrutiny.
• Run revenue-related reconciliations and journal entries; investigate and resolve discrepancies.
• Perform flux analysis on revenue; explain drivers to leadership and partner teams in plain language.
• Partner early on pricing, packaging, promotions, credits/refunds, and billing logic so revenue recognition and operational readiness are clear before changes ship.
• Work with User Ops, Finance Systems, Finance Data, and Billing so that what the product and pipes produce is what the GL reflects - especially for high-volume and automated revenue streams.
• Help select, implement, and improve billing and revenue systems (e.g., NetSuite, Stripe, or similar)
• Design, document, and maintain internal controls over revenue and order-to-cash; maintain audit-ready evidence (including control matrices and testing support).

How you’ll work - Cursor as a multiplier

We hire people who want to set the standard, not just check boxes. In this role, that includes using Cursor to:

• Automate workstreams - scripts, reconciliation helpers, repeatable close steps, and lightweight tooling that reduce manual drag and human error.
• Produce best-in-class deliverables - clear memos, control narratives, close packages, and analyses that are easy for leadership, audit, and partners to consume.
• Create efficiencies - templates, checklists, and workflows that scale as headcount and transaction volume grow.
• Move faster safely - pair AI-assisted drafting and exploration with your judgment on GAAP, controls, and what actually happened economically.

You may be a fit if

• Bachelor’s degree in accounting or finance (or equivalent experience); CPA or equivalent strongly preferred.
• 8+ years of progressive accounting experience with meaningful revenue accounting depth
• Strong command of ASC 606
• Experience with subscription and usage-based SaaS and high volume self-service revenue
• Experience designing and implementing systems and integrations that keep accounting data flowing automatically from source to GL
• SQL or other data skills for reconciliations of large datasets
• Hands on experience with Netsuite, Stripe, HubiFi, Salesforce, or other similar tools
• Demonstrated ability to work cross-functionally, influence without authority, and deliver in a fast-changing, high-growth environment.
• Excellent attention to detail, communication, and ownership—you spot issues, propose fixes, and drive them to completion.
