Sr. Product Accounting Manager

Solve the Problems That Matter Most:

• Make accountants' lives easier. Then go solve the next hard problem.
• Every accountant has felt it. The standard is clear in theory, but the software doesn't quite handle the edge case, so you spend three hours in Excel doing what the system should have done in three seconds. Multiply that by every accounting team in the world, and now multiply it across lease accounting, debt management, accruals, prepaids, and every standard that governs the office of the controller, and you start to see the size of the problem we're solving.
• At FinQuery, accountants don't just use the software. We
• build
• it. As a Senior Product Accounting Manager, you'll sit at the table where the product is designed, decide how complex accounting requirements get translated into elegant software, and ship features that accounting teams across the US, UK, and beyond will rely on every close.
• This role is for you if:
• You want your work to matter at scale.
• A well-designed accounting feature saves a real controller a real weekend — across lease accounting, debt, accruals, and the products we're building next. You'll ship those.
• You're ready to stop auditing the work and start shaping it.
• Trade busy season for development cycles. Trade tying out workpapers for designing the calculation engine that produces them.
• You want influence over the product, not just opinions about it.
• Your interpretation of the standard becomes the requirement. Your example scenarios become the test cases. Your name comes up in the room where decisions get made.
• You like hard problems.
• Lease modifications. Debt restructuring. Accrual and prepaid true-ups. The questions that keep standard-setters busy across FASB, IASB, the FRC, and the Big 4 are the questions you'll be ensuring the software gets right every time, for everyone.
• You're building for a platform, not a point solution.
• FinQuery is expanding with new products, new geographies, and new standards. You won't just maintain what exists. You'll help establish the accounting foundation for what comes next.
• If you're a technical accountant who has ever muttered that "this software should just do this," this is the role where you make that happen.
• Hands on accounting experience is required for this role.  If you do not have accounting experience, no need to apply.

How You'll Make an Impact:

• Be the accounting expert inside Product. Partner with product engineers, engineers, designers, and QA to translate US GAAP, IFRS, GASB, and applicable international frameworks into software requirements, example scenarios, and test cases that hold up under scrutiny across FinQuery's growing product portfolio.

• Research and rule. Tackle ambiguous accounting questions escalated from teams across the organization, and make the call. Document your reasoning so the next person doesn't have to redo the work.

• Stay ahead of the standard-setters. Monitor publications, webinars, and emerging guidance from FASB, IASB, the FRC, GASB, and accounting firms across US, UK, and additional markets as FinQuery expands. Brief Product and leadership before guidance becomes a problem, not after.

• Build the accounting foundation for new products. As FinQuery expands its platform, you'll develop the example scenarios, edge case documentation, and requirements that establish sound accounting coverage for net new product areas.

• Use AI as a force multiplier and govern it. You'll lean on large language models to accelerate research, draft documentation, and pressure-test interpretations. You'll also be one of the people responsible for making sure AI-generated accounting content is right before it goes anywhere near a customer.

• Talk to customers. Join prospect and customer calls, articulate and defend how the software handles complex accounting scenarios, and bring real-world feedback back to the product team.

• Teach the company. Write customer bulletins for the Knowledge Base, brief leadership on emerging guidance, and explain accounting concepts to people who have never reconciled a thing in their lives.

• Test what we ship. Validate new accounting features end-to-end and drive anomalies through to resolution.

• Mentor. Bring junior team members along. Make the people around you better.

The Expertise You'll Bring:

• Write prompts that get useful, accurate output from LLMs and know why a prompt failed when it does

• Critically evaluate AI-generated accounting content, catch hallucinated citations, spot subtle misapplications of guidance, and know when to trust the output versus go back to the source

• Use AI to move faster on research, drafting, and analysis without outsourcing your judgment to it

• Independently. You set the approach on critical assignments. Nobody's going to hand you a checklist.

• Cross-functionally. You'll lead working groups that pull in Product, Engineering, Sales, and Customer Success. You won't have positional authority over most of them. You'll need to earn it.

• Visibly. Your work shapes product decisions and reaches customers. Leadership will know your name.

• Analytical. You break down hard questions and produce conclusions people can build on.

• Trustworthy. People come to you because your answers hold up and you follow through.

• Curious. You stay ahead of the standards — not because someone asked you to, but because you want to know what's coming.

• Positive. You're someone teammates are glad to see in the meeting invite.
