With industry-leading safety standards and years of proven deployment data, we're pioneering a new era of automation that enhances human potential
• As the Accounts Payable Manager, you will lead and modernize our procure-to-pay (P2P) lifecycle during a critical phase of hyper-growth and increased purchasing volume.

The AP Manager will also bring experience leveraging AI technology and modern automated solutions to drive continuous process improvement, eliminate manual friction, and optimize workflow efficiency across the P2P lifecycle

• Identify, evaluate, and implement the use of AI technology and intelligent automation (such as AI-powered OCR invoice capture, automated exception routing, smart fraud prevention, and predictive analytics) to drive ongoing process improvement and operational efficiency
• Partner closely with Supply Chain, Operations, Engineering, and Accounting leadership to drive organization-wide adoption of new procurement policies, eliminate approval bottlenecks, and enforce PO compliance
• Directly manage, mentor, and develop the Accounts Payable team; set strategic operational focus areas, conduct performance reviews, and foster professional growth across the department
• Perform secondary reviews and final authorizations for payment runs (ACH, wires, checks), evaluate high-value or complex payment exceptions, and ensure proper GL alignment across inventory and corporate expenses
• Establish robust SOX-compliant internal controls, update and enforce travel & expense (T&E) and purchasing policies, and serve as the main point of contact for internal/external audits related to payables
• Oversee the month-end AP close process managed by the team, reviewing subledger-to-GL reconciliations, AP aging, unbilled PO accrual methodologies, and delivering cash flow forecasting inputs to senior management
