Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. CSC Generation is the AI-native holding company re-engineering omnichannel retail. As Accounting Manager, you will own the month-end close process, manage Accounts Payable operations, and leverage AI to automate accounting tasks, ensuring timely and accurate financial reporting.
Responsibilities
- Drive the full close cycle to completion within the 5-day target window and continuously work to compress it
- Prepare and post the complete slate of recurring journal entries — amortizations, prepaid schedules (insurance, advertising, IT, freight), and accruals (unpaid vendor bills, shipping, transportation fees, payroll, sales returns & allowances)
- Own balance sheet reconciliations, intercompany entries, reclasses, and cash/bank entries across accounts (Ramp, Stripe, sales tax, and bank transactions)
- Process all payroll-related journal entries
- Coordinate cross-functional close inputs (inventory, delayed revenue, loyalty true-ups, intercompany files) and keep the critical path moving
- Maintain close documentation, checklists, and the journal-entry support library; ensure SOX-style controls and a clean audit trail
- Own AP operations end-to-end: bill processing, payment proposals, aging management, and vendor account reconciliation
- Serve as the financial point of contact for vendors — fulfill reporting requests, reconcile statements, and resolve short-pay, allowance, and credit disputes with clean, data-backed analysis
- Provide financial documentation for vendor credit-line and partnership discussions in coordination with merchandising/buying teams and leadership
- Partner with merchandising/buying teams on vendor policy matters (allowances, restock, returns)
- Use AI as a daily tool — and Python where it helps — to eliminate manual accounting work, automating JE preparation, reconciliations, AP workflows, and vendor reporting
- Champion an AI-first approach to accounting operations: use LLMs (e.g., Claude, ChatGPT) as a daily analysis partner and build solutions ranging from CustomGPTs to automated workflows
- Prototype and deploy agent-based automations (e.g., n8n) and build lightweight utilities or micro-apps (e.g., with Claude Code) to scale output and shrink the close
- Build and maintain reliable, auditable integrations and queries against NetSuite (ODBC/SuiteAnalytics), bank portals, and other financial systems
- Operationalize recurring reconciliations and accruals into always-on checks and alerts that flag exceptions before they hit the close
- Ensure the general ledger is accurate, complete, and GAAP-compliant; support external audit and tax requests
- Produce reconciled, GL-level actuals and driver detail that feed the FP&A team's forecasting, planning, and executive reporting
- Identify and remediate process gaps, control weaknesses, and recurring discrepancies at the root cause

- Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field

- Daily working familiarity with AI/LLM tools and a demonstrated track record of applying them to eliminate manual finance work
- Strong SQL for data extraction and transformation; advanced Excel

- CPA or MBA

- Hands-on experience with workflow-automation and agent platforms (e.g., n8n) and building micro-apps/utilities (e.g., Claude Code)
