About Boom Supersonic

About the role

You will be expected to both execute core accounting work reliably and improve the systems around it in real time. Some processes will be undocumented. Some cycles will require triage. You will be expected to think, not just execute.

What they're looking for

  • Execute month-end close end-to-end — journal entries, reconciliations, accruals, and variance explanations — every balance traceable, documented, and explainable at a business-driver level
  • Support financial reporting and audit readiness by maintaining clean, well-documented workpapers and supporting schedules
  • Identify recurring issues and manual workarounds and actively work to reduce or eliminate them, including through automation and AI tools
  • Research, evaluate, and account for complex accounting areas and transactions, including equity, investments, interest, taxes, etc., resolving questions with confidence and clarity
  • Manage and support the accounting systems and associated projects
  • Support procurement, facilities, and legal teams through expert knowledge of the systems and great working relationships
