About the role

Accounts Receivable / Accounts Payable Specialist | Nox Metals | Detroit, MI or Los Angeles, CA

About Nox Metals. American factories deserve a supply chain that moves as fast as they do. Nox Metals is building it, along with the tools that run it. We’re a technology company with operations in Metro Detroit and Los Angeles, supplying aluminum plate, bar, and rounds to aerospace and defense manufacturers. We use software and automation to supply metal to American factories faster than the industry thought possible.

The role. We’re hiring an Accounts Receivable / Accounts Payable Specialist to keep money and documentation moving accurately through Nox Metals. You will own daily invoicing, collections support, vendor bills, payment preparation, reconciliations, and the records that make a fast-growing operation trustworthy.

You will work closely with customers, suppliers, sales, purchasing, receiving, and finance. The right person follows an issue to its source, communicates clearly, and leaves the ledger cleaner than they found it.

You will:

· Create and send accurate customer invoices with supporting documentation

· Apply cash, reconcile customer accounts, and follow up on past-due balances professionally

· Review vendor bills and resolve purchase-order, receipt, price, and quantity differences

· Prepare approved payment runs and maintain complete payment records

· Reconcile accounts and investigate unmatched or unusual transactions

· Maintain vendor and customer records, including tax and payment information

· Support month-end close with schedules, documentation, and cutoff checks

· Respond promptly to customer, vendor, and internal questions

· Improve controls and workflows as transaction volume grows

· Protect confidential financial and banking information

You are:

· Accurate, organized, and persistent about resolving discrepancies

· Comfortable managing a high volume of transactions and competing deadlines

· Clear and professional with customers and vendors

· Strong in spreadsheets and quick to learn financial systems

· Able to distinguish an isolated mistake from a broken process

· Dependable with approvals, documentation, and sensitive information

· Willing to ask when something does not make sense

Nice to have:

· Experience in accounts receivable, accounts payable, bookkeeping, or general accounting

· Experience in manufacturing, distribution, inventory, or a purchase-order environment

· Familiarity with ERP, accounting, expense, or bill-payment systems

· Experience with customer collections or vendor statement reconciliation

· Comfort using AI and automation tools to reduce repetitive work while maintaining controls

Benefits:

· Equity in Nox Metals

· Company-paid medical, dental, and vision insurance
