About the Team:

The Accounting team at Netlify is responsible for ensuring the accuracy, integrity, and timeliness of our financial reporting in accordance with GAAP. We lead the month-end close process, maintain audit readiness, uphold strong internal controls, and partner cross-functionally to provide financial clarity across the business.

As Netlify continues to grow, this role exists to strengthen our close operations and expand our capacity to handle both recurring accounting processes and strategic ad hoc initiatives. Reporting to the Controller, the Senior Accountant will play a key role in owning critical areas of the month-end close, ensuring compliance, and contributing to process improvements that support scale across a multi-entity business.

What You’ll Do:

• Own key components of the month-end close process, including prepaids, fixed assets, bank reconciliations, lease schedules, accruals, intercompany eliminations, and various other balance sheet reconciliations, ensuring compliance with GAAP
• Build, iterate on, and maintain reliable reconciliation, reporting, and close documentation processes
• Prepare journal entries with clear supporting documentation and a strong understanding of underlying accounting principles
• Manage intercompany transactions and eliminations to ensure accurate consolidated financial reporting
• Perform detailed balance sheet account analyses, identifying discrepancies and proactively resolving issues
• Partner closely with the Controller to manage close timelines, address technical accounting questions, and support audit readiness
• Collaborate with our AP consultant on payables-related workflows and reconciliations
• Work cross-functionally with the Revenue, Billing, and FP&A teams to answer accounting questions, investigate variances, and ensure financial alignment
• Assist with payroll operations and related accounting, including bonus and commission accruals
• Support ad hoc accounting projects, process improvements, and system enhancements as the company scales
• Leverage systems, automation, and emerging technologies, including AI, to streamline workflows and strengthen controls

What You'll Bring:

• 3+ years of accounting experience, ideally within a SaaS or high-growth technology environment
• Strong working knowledge of U.S. GAAP and its application in a corporate accounting environment
• Experience managing multiple areas of the month-end close process with increasing ownership
• Hands-on experience with balance sheet reconciliations and analysis
• Solid understanding of the “why” behind journal entries, reconciliations, and financial reporting treatment
• Comfort supporting payroll accounting processes
• Strong Excel skills and confidence working with large sets of financial data
• Systems-savvy with the ability to learn new tools quickly, and curiosity about how AI and automation can improve accounting workflows
• A breadth of exposure across various accounting functions, or strong foundational knowledge, with the ability to ramp quickly in new areas
• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail

This Role is a Great Fit If:

• You’re energized by owning core accounting processes and ensuring they are accurate and GAAP-compliant
• You’re comfortable rolling up your sleeves to investigate and resolve accounting questions independently
• You enjoy understanding the technical reasoning behind accounting treatment, not just completing tasks
• You thrive in a collaborative environment where you partner closely with Finance and cross-functional stakeholders
• You have a hunger for learning and are excited to expand your accounting breadth
• You’re confident working in Excel and enjoy using systems to drive efficiency
• You’re curious about emerging technologies, including AI, and how they can improve accounting operations
