Job description

At CloudScale Systems the finance team is small enough that your Senior Controller fingerprints land on Eau Claire's biggest decisions. What makes this CloudScale Systems role different is the ownership; the $90,000 - $126,000 and contract hours are just the entry fee.

Key Responsibilities

• Track grant funding, restricted accounts, and compliance reporting
• Stress-test the annual budget against three proudly-nerdy demand scenarios
• Watch DSO and DPO together, not as isolated numbers
• Own the tax provision and the footnotes that explain it
• Lean on Tableau and Creativity to automate what used to be manual
• Monitor key finance metrics and report on performance to leadership

What You'll Bring

• A history of leaving finance processes better than you found them
• The reflex to surface risk before it surfaces itself
• The grit to debug at 4pm on a Friday without complaint
• The discipline to finish the boring 20% that makes the rest matter
• Comfort owning a number that goes up or down because of you
• The diplomacy to align stakeholders who don't agree yet
• Comfort with contract arrangements and the rhythms of a sharp-but-gentle workplace

The reputation CloudScale Systems enjoys across WI wasn't bought; the goal-oriented Eau Claire team earned it one finance project at a time. We assume good intent first and ask clarifying questions second, which keeps the high-trust days drama-free.

The compensation here starts at $90,000 - $126,000, paired with unlimited PTO and a manager committed to your professional growth.

Our Eau Claire team is currently shortlisting candidates for this position.
