Oversee end-to-end accounting for sales and partner commissions, including accruals, expense recognition, capitalization, amortization, and reporting.
Ensure full compliance with ASC 606, including assessment of contract modifications, renewals, disputes, settlements, and clawbacks.
Define, enhance, and maintain commission accounting policies aligned with evolving go-to-market and partner strategies.
Lead technical accounting evaluations and operational readiness for new commission plans and partner structures prior to launch.
Design and implement automated, scalable commission accounting frameworks capable of handling large global datasets.
Eliminate manual processes and strengthen system-driven controls through modernization and automation initiatives.
Develop predictive models and AI-enabled solutions for accrual accuracy, anomaly detection, reconciliation, and data quality monitoring.
Ensure SOX-compliant control design and operation, including audit coordination and financial statement support.
Partner with cross-functional teams to improve commission systems architecture and data integration.
Mentor team members and build deep technical expertise within commission accounting practices.

Requirements:

10+ years of progressive accounting experience with strong focus on commission accounting and revenue-related cost structures.
Deep expertise in ASC 606 and US GAAP, particularly related to contract acquisition costs and SaaS/subscription models.
CPA certification is required.
Strong experience with commission systems such as Xactly, CaptivateIQ, Varicent, or similar platforms.
Advanced ERP experience (e.g., NetSuite, SAP, Oracle, Workday).
Strong data analytics skills, including SQL and ability to manage and analyze large datasets.
Experience designing and operating SOX-compliant financial controls.
Proven ability to automate accounting processes and modernize financial systems.
Strong analytical mindset with ability to identify risks, trends, and inefficiencies in complex data environments.
Ability to translate accounting requirements into system and technical solutions.
Strong communication and leadership skills with experience collaborating across technical and business teams.
Highly detail-oriented, systems-driven, and comfortable operating in a fast-paced, transformation-focused environment.

Benefits:

Competitive base salary ranging from approximately $126,000 to $244,000 depending on location and experience.
Eligibility for annual performance-based bonus.
Comprehensive health benefits including medical, dental, and vision coverage.
Life and disability insurance coverage.
