Revenue Accountant

About the Role

You'll support the monthly revenue close and ASC 606 revenue accounting for a defined area of our business, with a focus on usage-based and AI-credit revenue. This role exists because we're scaling quickly and need more dedicated support to keep revenue recognition accurate and audit-ready as complexity increases. What's different at Notion: you'll help build an AI-native finance function, and you'll work at the intersection of billing systems, product usage, and accounting judgment—so your work directly impacts how fast we can launch and iterate.

This role can be based in either San Francisco or New York City. We work from our offices on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays (our Anchor Days) because we do our best thinking and building together in person. We're looking for someone who's excited to work alongside the team during those days.

What You'll Achieve

• Big bet: Help make the close faster and cleaner — your accurate, on-time work keeps revenue accounting from becoming the bottleneck.

• By day 90, you'll: support month-end close for a defined rev-rec area with clean, audit-ready support.

• By day 90, you'll: use AI as leverage: partner with the team to generate and validate SQL queries, automate variance checks, and build a lightweight agent/workflow that flags discrepancies before they surprise the close.

• By the end of year 1, you'll: produce reliable, well-documented reconciliations and audit support, and contribute to SOX/control documentation.

Skills You'll Need to Bring

• 3+ years of progressive accounting experience, including Big 4 public accounting.

• Working knowledge of ASC 606, with a desire to deepen your judgment on subscription + usage-based revenue and contract changes.

• Comfort with SQL (or eagerness to ramp quickly) — you can query datasets to investigate discrepancies.

• Demonstrated ability to run detailed reconciliations, investigate breaks, and land on root cause with clear, audit-ready support.

• Strong ownership and attention to detail: you reliably hit close deadlines without trading off quality.

• AI fluency in practice: you actively use AI tools to improve the quality and reliability of your analyses, checks, and close workflows (not just speed).

Nice to Haves

• Experience with NetSuite (ARM), Salesforce CPQ, Stripe, or Metronome.

• Exposure to usage-based or consumption pricing and the billing/rev-rec complexity it creates.

• SOX / internal controls experience.
