In this role, you will lead the revenue accounting team as a strategic change agent, leveraging deep ASC 606 and US GAAP expertise to modernize processes and systems. You will bridge the gap between financial compliance and go-to-market execution by partnering closely with Revenue Operations and Deal Desk to advise on contract structures and deal language.
