Requires experience with novel transactions, GAAP reporting, and audit scrutiny.

## Job Description

## Role Scope
- Own technical accounting positions across revenue recognition, leases, project finance, and equity, writing the memos that document how the company accounts for first-of-a-kind data center transactions.
- Run the financial reporting close and produce accurate financial statements on a fast cycle as the company scales toward audit and public-company readiness.
- Stand up technical accounting policies and controls from the ground up on a lean finance stack (NetSuite, Zip, Shareworks, Pigment).
- Manage the external audit relationship, preparing the support and positions that let auditors sign off without surprises.
- Partner with strategic finance, legal, and commercial teams to structure and account for complex, high-value transactions correctly the first time.

## Requirements
- Written technical accounting memos on complex areas such as revenue recognition, leases, business combinations, or equity, and they held up under audit scrutiny.
- Owned a financial reporting close and produced GAAP financial statements on a demanding timeline.
- Built accounting policies, processes, or controls from scratch rather than maintaining a mature function.
- Managed external auditors through a full audit and resolved contentious positions without the timeline blowing up.
- Worked through the accounting for genuinely novel or complex transactions where the precedent was thin.
- Explain technical accounting conclusions clearly enough that non-accountants can act on them.

## Nice-to-Haves
- CPA.
- Big Four technical accounting or national-office background.
- Capital-intensive industry experience (data centers, energy, real estate, infrastructure).
- NetSuite or comparable ERP implementation.
- Pre-IPO or audit-readiness experience.
