- Demonstrated experience improving the close process and strengthening documentation and controls.
- Proven cross-functional collaboration with operations, product, and data teams to resolve billing, costing, and reconciliation issues.
- Advanced Excel/Google Sheets; comfort with SQL or BI tools is a plus.
- E-commerce, logistics, or fintech exposure, especially tax-at-checkout and cross-border operations.
- Familiarity with global indirect tax flows and reconciliations.
