• Collaborate with the Sponsorships Project Manager, Accounting Manager, and engineering teams to improve tooling, reduce manual work, and transition from spreadsheets to scalable systems.
• Handle large transactional datasets from Stripe, Mode, and other payment platforms, using advanced Google Sheets functions (filter views, data validation, multi-tab workflows) to maintain data hygiene.
• Support month-end close activities with precision, ensuring all revenue recognition, payout accruals, and reconciliations comply with accounting standards.
• Take on additional finance operations tasks as assigned by the Finance & Accounting team, adapting to evolving priorities and process improvements.
• Operate independently in a remote, async environment with high ownership, meeting deadlines without constant oversight and maintaining meticulous records.

• Proven experience with month-end close processes under strict deadlines
• Hands-on experience with Stripe or a comparable payments platform at volume
