Description
Neo Security is hiring a Financial Controller to own the accuracy, integrity, and efficiency of our accounting operations as we scale. Based out of our Boston, MA office, you'll manage the close process, financial reporting, internal controls, and compliance, while building the systems and processes needed to support a fast-growing security software company. You'll report to finance leadership and work closely with the CEO, CFO/VP of Finance, FP&A, HR, and outside auditors and tax advisors.
This is a hands-on role for an experienced accounting leader who has run month-end close and built controls in a SaaS environment, is comfortable being the primary owner of the books, and wants to build out the finance function's foundation as the company grows.
What You'll Do
- Own the monthly, quarterly, and annual close process, ensuring accurate and timely financial statements in accordance with GAAP.
- Manage day-to-day accounting operations, including accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll accounting, revenue recognition, and general ledger.
- Design, implement, and maintain internal controls and accounting policies appropriate for a scaling SaaS business.
- Own revenue recognition for subscription/SaaS contracts in accordance with ASC 606, partnering with Sales and Legal on contract structuring.
- Manage relationships with external auditors, tax advisors, and banking partners, and lead the annual audit process.
- Ensure timely and accurate tax compliance (federal, state, sales/use tax) in partnership with outside tax advisors.
- Partner with FP&A on budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis, ensuring the books support accurate financial planning.
- Manage cash flow, treasury operations, and banking relationships, including monitoring runway and burn rate.
- Build and improve accounting systems and processes (e.g., ERP/accounting software, expense management, billing) to support scale.
- Support due diligence and reporting needs tied to fundraising, board reporting, and potential M&A activity.
- Hire, manage, and develop accounting staff as the team grows.
Requirements
- 8+ years of progressive accounting experience, including at least 3 years in a Controller or similar leadership role.
- Experience in B2B SaaS or software, with a strong understanding of ASC 606 revenue recognition for subscription businesses.
- CPA required.
- Proven experience owning the full close process and producing accurate, timely GAAP financial statements.
- Experience designing and maintaining internal controls, ideally including experience preparing for or supporting a SOC 2 or similar audit.
- Hands-on experience managing external audits and working with outside tax advisors.
- Proficiency with modern accounting/ERP systems (e.g., NetSuite, QuickBooks, Sage Intacct) and billing/subscription management tools.
- Strong analytical and organizational skills, with high attention to detail and a bias toward clean, well-documented processes.
- Excellent communication skills, with the ability to explain financial results and controls to non-finance stakeholders.
- Based in or near Boston, MA.
Nice to Haves
- Experience at a venture-backed startup, including supporting fundraising due diligence and board reporting.
- Prior public accounting experience (Big 4 or regional firm) before moving in-house.
- Experience implementing or migrating accounting/ERP systems as a company scales.
- Familiarity with equity accounting and cap table management (e.g., Carta).
- Experience working in a company that has gone through a SOC 2 Type II audit or similar security compliance certification, given the nature of Neo Security's business.
- Experience managing multi-entity or multi-currency accounting.
