About the role

- Own the architecture, implementation, and administration of revenue recognition systems such as Zuora Revenue, Salesforce Revenue Cloud, or similar platforms, ensuring ASC 606 compliance for consumption based business models.
- Design and maintain CPQ (Configure Price Quote) systems architecture, including Salesforce CPQ, Nue.io, or equivalent platforms, ensuring seamless integration with downstream billing and revenue systems.
- Lead month end close processes related to revenue recognition, identifying and resolving reconciliation issues, automation opportunities, and process bottlenecks.
- Architect integrations between CPQ, billing, revenue recognition, and ERP systems to create a cohesive quote to cash technology stack.
- Develop and maintain technical documentation, data flow diagrams, and system configuration guides.
- Partner with Accounting, FP&A, and Sales Operations teams to translate business requirements into scalable technical solutions.
- Troubleshoot complex revenue recognition scenarios, particularly those unique to consumption and usage based pricing models.

What you bring

- Deep expertise in ASC 606 revenue recognition standards, particularly as applied to consumption based and usage based business models.
- Hands on experience with CPQ platforms (Salesforce CPQ, Nue.io, DealHub, or similar) and their integration with billing and revenue systems.
- Track record of solving complex month end close issues and optimizing revenue accounting processes.
- Comfortable working directly in systems - configuring, troubleshooting, and building solutions yourself rather than solely managing vendors.
- Strong understanding of quote to cash processes and the technical architecture that supports them.
- Ability to communicate complex technical concepts clearly to both technical and non technical stakeholders.
- Tendency to thrive in unstructured environments and energized by building processes and systems from the ground up.
Strong candidates may also
