• Design, prototype, implement, or help deploy AI-enabled tools, agents, and automated workflows that improve efficiency, scalability, analytical capability, and control.
• Apply a clean-sheet mindset to existing processes, challenging legacy workflows and identifying opportunities to simplify or redesign them using generative AI, advanced automation.
• Leverage automation to enhance areas such as contract review, reconciliations, fluctuation analysis, large-dataset analysis, audit support, and management reporting.

Cross-Functional Business Partnership

• Partner proactively with Sales, Deal Desk, Legal, Revenue Operations, Sales Operations, FP&A, Product, Engineering, and IT to evaluate the accounting implications of proposed transactions.
• Provide accounting guidance before deal execution to help the business structure arrangements in a manner that supports commercial objectives while maintaining accounting compliance.
• Advise on the revenue implications of new products, pricing models, go-to-market initiatives, and changes to commercial practices.
• Translate complex accounting conclusions into clear, actionable guidance for non-accounting stakeholders.
