Opportunity
We’re hiring a Finance and Automation Manager to own our day-to-day accounting engine — ledgers, month-end/year-end close, tax-compliance oversight, AP, and payroll — and to build the tooling that makes finance faster. This is a player-coach role: you personally own key accounting areas and the automation build, while managing a team (3 today) to deliver the rest. You report to the Finance Transformation Manager and partner as a peer with the Controller.
The differentiator: you don’t just have ideas about automation — you ship them. You can build and maintain internal finance tools end to end (dashboards, web apps, data pipelines) using AI vibe coding tools such as Claude Code and Copilot Pro.
What you will do
Own financials, month end close, ad-hoc reports and models, cash flow, budgeting processes.
Manage, coach, and develop an accounting team — balancing hands-on ownership with delegation.
Oversee AP and payroll delivered by the team
Own cash oversight: monitor position and upcoming outflows, and coordinate with banking partners.
Build and ship internal finance tooling end to end — dashboards, automations, and web apps with some internal support
Partner with the Finance Transformation Manager so accounting operations support strategic and high level decisions.
Act as the key point of accountability for accounting as the function scales.
What we’re looking for
Strong, hands-on technical accounting: ledgers, close, tax, AP, payroll.
Proven people leadership — managing and developing a small team (this is half the role).
Demonstrated ability to independently build and ship finance tools, dashboards, or automations using AI vibe coding tools— portfolio or code sample expected.
US accounting-practice experience and exposure to US-based companies.
Comfortable holding release-level payment authority and the controls that come with it.
Experience with global, distributed, culturally diverse teams; fluent written and spoken English; high autonomy.
Latam-based preferred.
Reporting
Reports to: Finance Transformation Manager. Team of 3.
