• Surface the three expense lines quietly eating the finance margin
• Keep depreciation schedules synced as assets retire across Sunnyvale
• Conduct profitability analysis by product, region, and customer segment
• Run the cost-accounting layer beneath every finance product line
• Price out vendor contracts and surface the savings nobody else spotted

• Variance Analysis fundamentals plus the Revenue Recognition polish clients notice
• Willingness to commute to Sunnyvale, CA or work flexibly as needed
