[Remote] Sr. Product Accounting Manager

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. FinQuery is an AI-powered contract management and accounting automation company, recognized as a leader in lease accounting. The Senior Product Accounting Manager will be responsible for translating complex accounting requirements into software solutions, collaborating with product engineers and other teams to ensure the software meets accounting standards and customer needs.

Responsibilities

• Be the accounting expert inside Product. Partner with product engineers, engineers, designers, and QA to translate US GAAP, IFRS, GASB, and applicable international frameworks into software requirements, example scenarios, and test cases that hold up under scrutiny across FinQuery's growing product portfolio
• Research and rule. Tackle ambiguous accounting questions escalated from teams across the organization, and make the call. Document your reasoning so the next person doesn't have to redo the work
• Stay ahead of the standard-setters. Monitor publications, webinars, and emerging guidance from FASB, IASB, the FRC, GASB, and accounting firms across US, UK, and additional markets as FinQuery expands. Brief Product and leadership before guidance becomes a problem, not after
• Build the accounting foundation for new products. As FinQuery expands its platform, you'll develop the example scenarios, edge case documentation, and requirements that establish sound accounting coverage for net new product areas
• Use AI as a force multiplier and govern it. You'll lean on large language models to accelerate research, draft documentation, and pressure-test interpretations. You'll also be one of the people responsible for making sure AI-generated accounting content is right before it goes anywhere near a customer
• Talk to customers. Join prospect and customer calls, articulate and defend how the software handles complex accounting scenarios, and bring real-world feedback back to the product team
• Teach the company. Write customer bulletins for the Knowledge Base, brief leadership on emerging guidance, and explain accounting concepts to people who have never reconciled a thing in their lives
• Test what we ship. Validate new accounting features end-to-end and drive anomalies through to resolution
• Mentor. Bring junior team members along. Make the people around you better

Skills

• Hands on accounting experience is required for this role
• Four to six years of progressive experience in audit or assurance at a Big 4 firm and/or senior-level corporate accounting
• US GAAP expertise is required
• Ability to read a standard, identify what's actually being asked, and explain it to a software engineer in plain English
• AI fluency, non-negotiable
• Ability to write prompts that get useful, accurate output from LLMs and know why a prompt failed when it does
• Ability to critically evaluate AI-generated accounting content, catch hallucinated citations, spot subtle misapplications of guidance, and know when to trust the output versus go back to the source
• Ability to use AI to move faster on research, drafting, and analysis without outsourcing your judgment to it
• Ability to communicate effectively, including writing a memo a partner would sign, explaining a new FASB standard to a developer over Slack, and presenting a recommendation to executives
• Strong judgment skills to know which questions need a definitive answer, which need a footnote, and which need to be escalated
• Ability to operate independently and set the approach on critical assignments
• Ability to work cross-functionally and lead working groups that pull in Product, Engineering, Sales, and Customer Success
• Working knowledge of IFRS and applicable international frameworks is strongly preferred
• CPA strongly preferred; equivalent technical experience considered
