- You effectively translate complex guidance into practical solutions, help teams structure transactions the right way, design scalable and defensible accounting positions, and proactively surface issues timely

- Support external financial reporting, including preparation and review of disclosures, footnotes, and tie-outs for quarterly and annual financial statements
- Play a key role in IPO readiness activities, including S-1 preparation, SEC comment responses, and coordination with external advisors
- Liaise with external auditors on technical accounting positions, ensuring issues are identified early and resolved efficiently
- Design, implement, and maintain scalable accounting policies, procedures, and internal controls to support a public-company operating model

Our take
In the world of sales, relying on traditional methods like CRM notes for customer insights can be a time-consuming nightmare. Sales reps often spend hours sifting through data, yet crucial details get lost and decisions end up being based on guesswork. Recognizing this challenge, Gong founders saw the potential of AI to bridge the information gap.
Gong's innovative solution goes beyond simply recording customer interactions, it analyzes them as well. Gong identifies potential red flags and offers recommendations on the fly, helping reps navigate conversations toward successful closures.
With a proven track record and a global customer base that includes tech giants like LinkedIn, Slack, and Shopify, Gong is making its mark on the industry. The company is now focused on expanding its reach internationally and forging new partnerships, solidifying its position as a leader in AI-powered sales intelligence.
