  • Own end-to-end reporting model quality and performance, maintaining long-term hygiene and data integrity across customer implementations.

  • Translate unique customer requirements into repeatable, efficient reporting configurations and dashboards.

  • Partner cross-functionally with Engineering, Product, and Customer Success to influence data-output standards and compliance-ready product enhancements.

  • Elevate the team by contributing templates, documentation, and mentorship that raise the overall bar for delivery excellence.


Requirements


  • 7+ years of experience in financial modeling, data integrity, or reporting within sales compensation, ERP, or financial-systems environments.

  • Accounting or finance background—degree, MBA, CPA, or equivalent applied experience—with a solid grasp of ASC 606 and related standards.

  • CPA or formal accounting background, educational or professional.

  • Proven experience implementing or designing financial reporting systems or compensation-related data models.

  • Advanced Excel or Sheets skills for complex, large-dataset modeling; SQL or scripting familiarity preferred.

  • Highly analytical, detail-oriented, and comfortable operating independently in a fast-paced, client-facing environment.


Nice to Have


  • Experience with CaptivateIQ, Xactly, Varicent, SAP Commissions, or Anaplan.

  • Familiarity with Salesforce, NetSuite, Zuora, or other ERP/CRM systems.

  • Exposure to SQL/Python for financial data analysis or automation.

  • Background in FP&A, revenue operations, or audit/compliance.


Benefits


  • Comprehensive Healthcare: 100% coverage for medical, dental, and vision for all FTEs, with roughly 75% coverage for dependents.

  • Flexible Time Off: Flexible vacation days plus quarterly mental health days to ensure you have the space to recharge.

  • Annual Stipends: Dedicated funds for your professional development and caretaking needs.
