• Exposure to SOX 404 compliance activities, including process walkthroughs, control testing procedures, and risk and control matrix (RCM) documentation
• Experience supporting Technology, Media, or Telecommunications (TMT) organizations or clients
• Foundational experience with revenue accounting (e.g., ASC 606) and related finance processes
• Experience supporting finance systems, process improvement, or control-related projects
• Exposure to or experience working with Revenue Operations (RevOps) processes
• Experience with ERP systems (e.g., NetSuite, SAP, Oracle) and/or revenue/billing platforms (e.g., Zuora, Salesforce CPQ/Billing, Stripe, or similar)
• Experience working with data and reconciliation processes
• Strong communication skills and ability to work with client stakeholders and project teams
• Based in or willing to relocate to the San Francisco Bay Area, with hybrid expectations (2–3 days onsite); willingness to travel ~50%, work extended hours as needed, and hold a valid passport

Ideally, you’ll also have

• Progress toward certifications such as CPA, CIA, PMP, or similar
• Experience working with revenue processes in high-growth environments
