Job description

SNI has an immediate need for a Senior Controller to join a fast-paced, founder-led organization where you will have an immediate impact while having a direct line to the C-Suite!

The successful Senior Controller candidate will lead like an owner, not a caretaker. This is not a maintain the-status-quo role — it's a build-and-scale role.

As Senior Controller, you will own the financial engine behind a hyper-growth organization, setting the standard for speed, accuracy, and accountability across every close, every audit, and every dollar that moves through the business.

Responsibilities

• Own the monthly, quarterly, and annual financial reporting cycle end-to-end — reviewing,

analyzing, and correcting to guarantee accuracy the first time, not after the fact.

• Set the standard for whether accounting is run on a cash or accrual basis, and drive the roadmap

to full GAAP compliance as the business scales.

• Deliver board- and executive-ready reporting that turns financial data into a growth narrative, not

just a compliance exercise.

Revenue & Audit Compliance

• Partner cross-functionally to ensure revenue recognition is accurate, timely, and defensible under

scrutiny.

• Design audit procedures around how the business actually operates, proactively identifying risk

before it becomes a finding.

• Own the external audit relationship and drive it to a clean result — no surprises, no scrambling.

Tax & Regulatory Expertise

• Serve as the internal authority on tax compliance, directing preparation and filing of corporate

returns with precision.

• Anticipate regulatory exposure and build controls that keep the company ahead of it, not reacting

Transaction Integrity & Reconciliation

• Own reconciliation of related-party transactions, holding the line on accounting standards

without exception.

• Root-cause discrepancies in the financials and drive the fix, not just flag the problem.

• Oversee bank reconciliation across all company accounts with zero tolerance for unexplained

variance.

Month-End & Annual Close

• Lead a fast, clean close — entries, reconciliations, and analysis delivered with speed and

precision every cycle.

• Translate financial results into a clear, decision-ready summary of company performance each

month.

Revenue Collections & Billing Oversight

• Own billing schedules, chargebacks, and refunds, ensuring revenue is recorded and collected

accurately and on time.

• Drive collections performance across payment platforms including Stripe, Shopify, and

• Ensure refunds and chargebacks are properly adjusted in NetSuite and Invoiced.com to close

• Partner with FP&A on commission reporting, catching and correcting errors in ecommerce commission structures before they compound.

• Own credit card reconciliation completeness and accuracy across the business.

• Recruit, coach, and develop a high-performance accounting team — building bench strength, not just headcount.

• Drive continuous process improvement, replacing manual work with scalable systems as the company grows 10X.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's Degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field required; CPA or CMA strongly

preferred.

• 7+ years of progressive accounting/finance experience, including proven success as a Controller or Senior Controller.

• Track record leading finance functions inside a hyper-growth or private-equity-backed

environment — building the plane while flying it.

• Deep command of GAAP and applicable financial regulations, with hands-on experience

transitioning a company from cash to accrual accounting.

• Minimum 3 years of revenue recognition experience; strong grasp of audit methodology, risk management, and tax regulation.

• Experience with related-party transactions and multi-entity consolidations.

• Demonstrated ability to lead budgeting, reporting, and financial close cycles at scale.

• Advanced proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets (complex formulas, modeling) and NetSuite or comparable ERP systems.

• Proven people leadership — experience hiring, coaching, and growing an accounting team.

• Project management skill and the presence to run cross-functional meetings and drive alignment.

• A bias for ownership: someone who builds trust and commands respect quickly, treats problems as theirs to solve, and operates with urgency in ambiguity.
