Desirable

• We’re looking for a Senior Accounting Manager who will own and scale our accounting operations across two entities and four revenue lines—setting the foundation for audit readiness and our next stage of growth
• This is a high-impact, hands-on role with a clear path to Controller as the company scales
• You’ll report to the VP of Finance and work with the extended leadership team to run a tight financial operation, navigate revenue edge cases, and build a modern, scalable FinOps system
• Leading and optimizing the month-end close (MEC): Own the close process across the U.S. and India entities, including accruals, deferred revenue, expenses, reimbursements, and payroll journals—delivering accurate 3-statement reporting
• Establishing revenue recognition and invoicing standards: Make calls on how to represent revenue commitments, discounts, pauses, and contractual changes across contracts to ensure clean ARR and GAAP-aligned reporting
• Governing our internal controls: Build internal controls that can stand up to audit and govern our internal expense system to be fair and streamlined
• Building leverage through AI and automation: Continuously improve our financial systems and processes through ERP enhancements, automation, and tooling
• Preparing the business for audit by 2027: Lay the foundation for clean audits —including documentation, controls, and policy standardization
• You won’t be inheriting a clunky, overgrown finance org—you’ll be shaping it
• You’ll operate close to leadership and have a front-row seat to FERMÀT’s growth trajectory. If you're excited about designing foundational accounting infrastructure and leveling up into a Controller role, this is your opportunity
