Role
Who you are
- Bachelor’s in Accounting, Finance, or related field (CPA or progress toward CPA preferred)
- 2–6+ years of accounting experience in SaaS/technology or high-growth environments (public accounting/Big 4 a plus)
- Strong command of U.S. GAAP with hands-on month-end close, consolidations, and management reporting; working knowledge of ASC 606 impacts on reporting

What the job involves
- We’re seeking a highly motivated Senior Accountant to own our month-end reporting process for a growing global business. In this role, you will orchestrate the reporting calendar, prepare key journals like ASC 718 and reconciliations, build KPI dashboards and variance analyses, and partner across FP&A, Sales, and Operations to turn data into actionable insights. You’ll also ensure reporting accuracy under U.S. GAAP (including ASC 606 impacts) and drive scalable process and systems improvements
- Lead the monthly close: prepare JEs (revenue), reconcile key balance sheet accounts, maintain revenue/deferral schedules, and ensure timely, accurate results across multiple entities and geographies
- Produce the management reporting package: consolidate financials and prior-period flux analyses, and craft commentary for Finance leadership and Board-level materials
- Partner cross-functionally with FP&A on reporting, with Sales/Legal on deal terms that affect reporting, and with Data/IT on ERP/BI enhancements; identify and implement automation opportunities
- Identify and implement automation and process improvements in revenue recognition and reporting
- Prepare revenue-related reporting items under ASC 606 (SSP analyses, contract assets/liabilities roll-forwards) to ensure completeness and consistency in monthly/quarterly results
- Prepare and file sales & use/VAT/GST returns, reconcile tax GLs to filings, support audits and respond to notices, and drive process/automation improvements with our tax engine/ERP
Our take
Smart devices within the home have become the norm, but Plume Design believes that this influx of revolutionary home tech is only as smart as the networks that support them. With many issues concerning smart devices, treatment is reliant on generic WiFi, unsafe networks, and expensive analysis. Plume Design remedies this with cloud-controlled internet platforms that are defined by the needs of the devices that use them.
With home office setups now the norm, Plume has fast become a necessary service for many small businesses and casual users. Its smart Wi-Fi networks are ground-level products upon which Plume offers more smart home services and it now has more than a billion devices on its network.
With substantial funding behind it, Plume’s post-COVID surge in business was one thing, but keeping up the momentum throughout the 2020s is quite another. Time will tell if the company can continue on its upward trajectory. But as long as it keeps its networks fresh (as it did in 2022 through its partnership with opensync software agent SamKnows), it shouldn’t have a problem as it scales up.
