we are seeking a highly experienced Revenue Accounting Lead. Operating in a flat team structure where you and a team of Staff Accountants and Senior Accountants report directly to the Director of Global Revenue Accounting, this role is critical to maintaining the quality and speed of our accounting close and operations.
In this critical role, you will lead daily accounting operations by driving technical rigor and close efficiency throughout our global revenue organization. Working closely with staff and senior accountants, you will review core deliverables, manage close logistics across international entities, provide peer mentorship, and resolve intricate ASC 606 contract matters prior to escalation to the Director.
How You'll Contribute:
Quality Assurance & Close Coordination
Serve as the primary reviewer for month-end journal entries, deferred revenue schedules, Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) / fulfillment cost accruals, and contract asset/liability reconciliations prepared by the Staff and Senior Accountants
Coordinate the daily logistics of the global revenue close, ensuring the team meets all deadlines across U.S. and international entities
Review initial revenue flux analyses and variance commentary prepared by the team, refining the narratives before final submission to the Director and FP&A
Operational ASC 606 Application
Perform secondary reviews of customer contract evaluations prepared by the team, ensuring accurate accounting treatment for performance obligations, revenue allocation, and variable consideration for ASC 606 and associated Cost of Goods Sold (COGS)
Act as the team’s first-line technical escalation resource: resolve routine technical questions from the team and identify/escalate only highly complex, non-standard contracts that require formal technical memos
Ensure the team consistently applies the globally established revenue accounting policies in their day-to-day work
Workflow Leadership & Mentorship
Provide dotted-line leadership, training, and day-to-day mentorship to the Staff and Senior Accountants, elevating the overall technical competency of the team
Guide the team in troubleshooting discrepancies between billing platforms and our current revenue subledger
Foster an operational culture of accuracy, ownership, and continuous process improvement
SOX & Audit Execution
Compile & Review Audit Deliverables: Review the walkthrough documentation, audit schedules, and sample selections prepared by the team, delivering the compiled packages to the Director for final review and approval before they are provided to external auditors
Control Execution: Ensure the team is accurately executing day-to-day SOX 404 controls over the revenue recognition process (e.g., ensuring proper workflows and providing compliant documentation)
Cross-Functional Escalation & ERP Implementation
Cross-Functional Liaison: Act as the senior operational liaison for Order-to-Cash, Procure-to-Pay, Sales, Operations, and Legal, stepping in to resolve upstream data quality issues or contract intake bottlenecks
Systems Implementation: Partner with the Director, the Financial Systems team, and the broader Product group to prepare for and execute an upcoming enterprise ERP migration (e.g., NetSuite, Oracle)
Data Validation & Testing: Lead data cleansing, process mapping, and user-acceptance testing (UAT) for the revenue accounting team during the system transition
What You'll Bring to Xometry:
Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field. Active CPA license (or international equivalent such as CA/ACCA), or active progress toward licensure, is a plus
5+ years of progressive accounting experience, with significant hands-on expertise in corporate revenue accounting
Strong track record acting as a primary reviewer of month-end reconciliations, complex journal entries, and close deliverables prepared by Staff and Senior Accountants
Demonstrated proficiency applying ASC 606 and U.S. GAAP to customer contracts, complex deal structures, variable consideration, and associated Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) in daily operations
Familiarity with working in a public company/SOX 404 environment and supporting external audit requests
Experience navigating complex revenue data and legacy systems, with a strong readiness and desire to help lead the transition to a major ERP system (e.g., NetSuite, Oracle, SAP)
Excellent peer leadership skills, with the ability to mentor, train, and guide a team through influence rather than direct reporting lines
