- Ensure timely and accurate financial reporting by applying IFRS and local GAAP, reviewing accounting treatment consistently and reviewing accounting treatment against Camunda’s group policies.
- Maintain complete and reliable audit documentation, including account analysis, control evidence, and variance commentaries to support external audits and internal reviews.
- Drive accounting process improvements by identifying opportunities for automation, standardization, and improved reconciliation quality in a lean, remote environment.
- Strengthen cross-functional alignment by collaborating with FP&A, Tax, Legal, and Treasury to resolve accounting issues and ensure statutory and management reporting requirements are met.
What you bring:
- Ability and/or willingness to use our product.
- CPA or equivalent certification, e.g. Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
- 5+ years of experience in General Ledger (GL) accounting, including close ownership, preparing accurate journal entries, reconciliations and financial reporting across multiple entities under tight deadlines.
- Strong technical accounting knowledge (IFRS/local GAAP) and experience preparing for audits and working with external auditors.
- Proven ability to implement and improve internal controls and process documentation aligned with audit-readiness and compliance standards.
- Excellent stakeholder communication skills, with the ability to explain accounting topics clearly to non-finance colleagues and lead cross-functional alignment.
- Hands-on experience with NetSuite and/or FloQast, or proven capability as a power user in similar ERP and close management systems.
Nice to haves:
- Experience in a remote, global, or high-growth SaaS company, handling international entities and intercompany eliminations.
- Prior involvement in system enhancements, automation initiatives, or finance tool implementations (e.g. Brex, Zip, Kyriba).
