• Accounting Systems and Process Improvement: Support the optimization, configuration, and integration of cloud-based accounting platforms and financial tools. Identify opportunities to automate workflows, improve reporting, and increase operational efficiency.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with finance leadership and other teams to address accounting questions, support business decisions, and maintain consistent financial practices across multiple entities.
• Continuous Improvement: Adapt to evolving business needs, take ownership of new responsibilities, and contribute to building scalable accounting processes in a fast-growing clean energy environment.

• Accounts Payable Expertise: Proficiency with accounts payable systems such as Bill.com, Ramp, or Tipalti, including configuring approval workflows, onboarding vendors, coding expenses to entities and projects, and integrating transactions with the general ledger.
