Head of Product Consulting

BigTime is a PSA platform built for professional services firms. Our customers use BigTime to scope and sell work, staff it, track time and expense, bill their clients, and see where their margin actually comes from. Thousands of consulting, IT, engineering, and accounting firms run their business on the platform.

We are building the next generation of that platform, organized into cross-functional pods that own a product surface end to end. The Financial Core pod owns the accounting engine underneath the platform: the project accounting subledger, the cost model, revenue recognition, WIP and unbilled balances, period close, and the integrations that tie all of it back to a firm's general ledger.

The pod carries real demand from day one, and the person leading it will be making calls that shape the platform for years.

You will own the roadmap, the specification quality, and the outcome for that surface, working alongside an engineering lead, a designer, and a team of engineers who sit with you.

This is also an underlying foundational layer for our next generation, AI-native platform. You will have the opportunity to build something brand new, while leveraging the expertise, data, customer knowledge and codebase from our existing platform.

The project accounting subledger. Trial balance, subledger detail, aging, GL reconciliation, and the controls around period open, soft close, and hard close.

*
ASC 606 support covering performance obligations, transaction price allocation, and recognition by method, including percent complete on cost, hours, or progress, along with milestone, ratable, and on-invoice.

*
Employee cost, contractor cost, vendor and pass-through spend, and the margin visibility that sits on top of all of it.

*
Starting with QuickBooks and extending to the major mid-market and enterprise accounting systems, with bidirectional reconciliation and error handling a finance team can trust.

*
Agents that run the recognition cycle, drive the close checklist, reconcile subledger to GL, and explain every exception in language an accountant accepts.

Track regulatory and accounting-standard changes on an ongoing basis, and represent their downstream compliance impact in roadmap decisions.

*
Define acceptance criteria, including for agent behavior, and hold the quality line before anything ships to a customer close cycle.

*
Work closely with Sales, Customer Experience, and Finance so the roadmap reflects what wins deals and what keeps customers.

*
Own the financial contract other pods build against, and review any feature across the platform that creates or changes financial data.

Product Management Foundation

*
A track record of shipping complex, backend-heavy capability that customers adopted, not just features that launched.

*
You can hold a position in a document and change your mind in public when the evidence moves.

*
Experience working directly with engineering on data models and system design, and enough technical fluency to be useful in that conversation.

*
That means pulling signals from several data sources at once, standing up a working prototype yourself instead of waiting on a design cycle, and using AI to draft and maintain PRDs, specs, competitive analysis, and customer research synthesis. ERP or accounting platform implementation, solution consulting, or solution architecture, where you configured a chart of accounts, revenue recognition, or the close process for real clients. NetSuite, Sage Intacct, Microsoft Dynamics, Workday Financials, Deltek, Unanet, and QuickBooks all count. Product management on a financial product, such as a subledger, revenue recognition engine, billing system, close platform, or reconciliation tooling.

*
Hands-on accounting or finance operations experience, as a staff accountant, revenue accountant, controller, or in FP&A, with a working command of the general ledger and a move into software already behind you or clearly underway.

The job requires that you understand what belongs in a subledger versus the GL, how percent-complete recognition behaves when the estimate changes, what a period close involves week to week, and why an auditor cares about the difference between an adjusting entry and an edit. If you have run financial system implementations for years and have less time in a formal product role, we want to see your application.

Background in professional services, consulting, agency, or architecture and engineering firms.

*
Experience with multi-entity, multi-currency, intercompany, or transfer pricing.

*
You have shipped your own pull requests, or worked with engineering through spec-driven and agentic development where the specification feeds the build directly.

*
Having migrated customers off a legacy financial system.

*
The actual salary will be determined on an individualized basis, taking into account a wide range of factors including, but not limited to, relevant skills, experience, education, and, where applicable, licenses or certifications held. In addition to base salary and a competitive benefits package, this position may be eligible for additional types of compensation such as bonuses.
