- Lead audits and reporting, including annual financial statements, audit preparation, investor updates, due diligence, and management dashboards with variance analyses.
- Build and automate scalable finance processes across accounting, billing, payroll, and reporting, implementing tools to reduce manual work and error risk.

- Deep US GAAP and financial-statement expertise.
- Hands-on US + international tax experience across multi-entity structures and complex reconciliations.
