Accounting Manager

Accounting Manager $100000 - $130000 per year | San Carlos, CA | On-site | Permanent Accounting Manager - Hybrid A bit about us: Our client is building the intelligence layer for safer streets globally. Why join us? Fast growing company Great benefits Strong culture Job Details What You'll Do Own the transition from outsourced to in-house accounting — take over books, processes, and vendor relationships (bookkeeping firm, tax preparer) currently run externally, and rebuild them as an internal function with proper controls. Run month-end and year-end close — journal entries, reconciliations, accruals, and a close calendar that gets faster and tighter each cycle. Lead implementation of Campfire as our accounting system of record — chart of accounts design, data migration, integrations, and internal training, following a project plan you help define. Manage revenue recognition for Obvio's municipal contracts — including revenue-share arrangements and percentage-of-completion structures that don't fit off-the-shelf SaaS revenue models, in partnership with Finance leadership. Own AP, AR, and payroll processing — vendor payments, municipal billing and collections, expense management, and payroll/benefits administration (directly or via a payroll provider). Prepare accurate, timely financial statements — P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow, with account-level detail Finance leadership can trust for board and investor reporting. Build the internal controls and documentation a growing company needs — policies, SOPs, and audit-ready workpapers ahead of Obvio's first financial statement audit. Partner cross-functionally with Finance, Sales, and Operations to track unit economics and contract terms across Obvio's growing footprint of municipal ATE programs. Manage sales/use tax and multi-jurisdiction compliance as Obvio's municipal footprint expands across states. What We're Looking For 5–10 years of progressive accounting experience, including time in an Accounting Manager, Senior Accountant, or Controller-track role. Direct experience transitioning a company's books from an outsourced provider to an in-house function — you've done this before and know where the landmines are. Hands-on ERP/accounting system implementation experience (Campfire, NetSuite, Sage Intacct, QuickBooks Online, or similar) — chart of accounts design, migration, and rollout. Full-cycle month-end close ownership, from journal entries through finalized financial statements. Comfort operating without a large team around you — you're equally happy doing the transactional work yourself and building the process that eventually lets you delegate it. Strong Excel skills and a genuine interest in efficient, well-documented processes. Experience in a hardware, hardware-enabled-services, or similarly operationally complex business (physical asset deployment, field operations, multi-site billing) is a strong plus. CPA or CPA-track strongly preferred. Bonus Points Experience with revenue-share, usage-based, or percentage-of-completion revenue models. Experience with government or municipal contracts and public-sector billing/collections. Prior experience preparing a company for its first financial statement audit. Exposure to AI/automation tools for close, reconciliation, or reporting workflows. Jobot is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
