Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Alvys is building modern cloud-based infrastructure and transportation management software for the logistics industry. The Accounting Manager will own the full accounting cycle, including month-end close, general ledger, revenue, accounts payable, payroll, tax, and audit readiness. The role will also manage a small analyst team, improve accounting processes, oversee financial reporting, and expand finance automation.
Responsibilities
- Own the close calendar end to end — task assignment, deadlines, review, and the close results package delivered to the Head of Finance
- Review and post the journal entries prepared by the team, and prepare the entries that carry judgment — commission and bonus accruals, payroll true-ups, and period-end reclasses
- Perform detailed balance sheet reconciliations covering cash, AR, deferred revenue, prepaids and accruals
- Run flux analysis (MoM, YoY) across the P&L and balance sheet, and write variance commentary that explains the movement
- Maintain the chart of accounts and product master lists, and keep reporting mappings current
- Review and approve the monthly revenue close prepared by the billing analyst — the reconciliation of subscription and non-subscription revenue across Stripe, Salesforce and QuickBooks Online, and the entries that come out of it
- Own revenue recognition policy under ASC 606 and make the judgment calls: usage overages, multi-element contracts, contract modifications, concessions and early terminations
- Own annual recurring revenue reporting (ARR and CARR) — the monthly build, the roll-forward of new, expansion, contraction and churn, and the tie-out of that roll-forward back to booked revenue in the general ledger
- Connect recurring revenue reporting to Salesforce pipeline and contract reporting, reconciling bookings, billings and recognized revenue with the billing analyst
- Oversee invoicing, collections and the dunning cycle. Approve concessions, credit memos and refunds, and review the deferred revenue schedule against the billing system
- Oversee vendor bills, payment runs and employee reimbursements in Ramp, in partnership with People Operations
- Partner with People Operations on domestic and international payroll — review the runs, journalize them, and reconcile the clearing and benefits-payable accounts
- Review commission calculations and book the corresponding accruals and true-ups
- Update the monthly expense forecast off closed actuals — run rate by department and GL account, vendor and contract commitments, headcount and compensation roll-forward
- Maintain the amortization and accrual schedules that drive forward-looking operating expense, and carry the changes into the forecast as they’re booked
- Explain spend variance against budget at the account and department level, and keep the supporting detail current for leadership reporting
- Coordinate with our external advisors on federal, state and franchise tax filings
- Own sales tax, 1099 and entity registration compliance
- Run audit readiness and execution: PBC lists, supporting schedules, and auditor questions
- Manage and develop a small analyst team covering AP and expense operations, and billing and AR
- Serve as backup across the team’s work, and as the Head of Finance’s delegate on accounting matters
- Own the accounting SOP library, the close checklist and the task repository, and keep all three current
- Find manual and inefficient processes and eliminate them as we target an “autonomous close.” Our close, billing and reconciliation processes already run on a growing set of automations, and this role is expected to extend them
Skills
- 6+ years of progressive accounting experience, including ownership of a full close cycle and hands-on balance sheet reconciliation
- Solid full general ledger background — you've prepared and reviewed entries across payroll, accruals and revenue, can defend a balance, and understand how accounting activity flows through the income statement, balance sheet and cash flow statement
- Revenue recognition experience under ASC 606 in a subscription business
- Experience managing, reviewing and developing other accountants
- QuickBooks Online — required. Daily hands-on experience: chart of accounts, journal entries, bank reconciliation, reporting
- Stripe — required. Subscriptions, invoices, credit memos, disputes, payouts, and reconciling subscription billing activity into the general ledger
- Advanced Google Sheets. Pivots, lookups, nested logic, data validation
- Demonstrated, current use of AI in your accounting work. Be ready to tell us what you've automated, what it replaced, and how much time it gave back
- Comfort writing prompts, iterating on output, and knowing when not to trust it. Everything AI produces is reviewed before it touches the ledger
- Our finance function runs on a library of custom AI workflows built in-house. You'll use them daily and be expected to build on them
- Hands-on by instinct. You review the work, and you prepare it yourself when the cycle calls for it — working a reconciliation, chasing a variance or covering a teammate's queue during close week
- Comfortable operating on a small team where the person who owns the number also understands and builds the schedule behind it
- Growth mindset. This role is deliberately scoped to expand, and we're looking for someone who wants that
- Clear written communication. A large share of this job is explaining a variance or accounting issue to someone who does not work in finance
- Salesforce is a significant plus
- CPA or active CPA candidate — someone committed to a career in accounting and finance
- SaaS or technology industry experience
- Prior exposure to a modern expense, HRIS or close-management platform
Benefits
- This role is designed to expand in scope, with a path toward Controller as the business and finance organization mature.
- You’ll work directly with leadership and have real influence on how the accounting function is built as the company scales.
