Your Team, Your Impact

Our team is leading the transformation of Finance IT at scale—modernizing how a global, publicly traded technology company handles its accounting and procurement operations. We're not just automating old processes—we’re redefining them using Generative AI, large language models (LLMs), and intelligent automation. This role gives you full visibility and ownership from ideation to impact, within a mission-critical enterprise function. Here’s what makes us different:
Business Alignment: Our work isn’t speculative—it’s directly tied to enterprise priorities in Finance transformation and cost control.
Enterprise at Scale: You’ll operate at the level of a global company with real-world data, production systems, and executive sponsorship.
End-to-End Innovation: From LLM design to ERP integration, you’ll touch every layer of the AI stack.
Cultural Leverage: We’re blending startup speed with the deep domain knowledge and process rigor of Finance IT.

What You Can Expect

1. Accounting Innovation & Automation

  • Drive Gen AI-based automation across core accounting processes such as journal entry creation, account reconciliations, period close, and subledger-to-GL flows.
  • Identify opportunities to use LLMs for anomaly detection, intelligent GL coding, and automated narrative reporting.
  • Enable real-time insights from large volumes of accounting transactions using AI summarization and classification.

2. ERP & Subledger Modernization

  • Architect scalable Gen AI use cases integrated with ERP modules to improve operational efficiency and accuracy.
  • Collaborate with system owners to embed AI/ML capabilities natively or through extension platforms.

3. Indirect Procurement Transformation

  • Apply Gen AI to optimize the indirect procurement lifecycle — vendor onboarding, contract review, PO creation, and spend analytics.
  • Enable smart assistant capabilities for buyers (e.g., AI-driven sourcing, automated RFQ responses).
  • Partner with procurement leadership to digitize workflows and improve compliance using AI.

4. Ecosystem & Platform Strategy

  • Lead evaluation and implementation of AI platforms and tools that integrate with Oracle and procurement solutions.
  • Establish data pipelines and governance frameworks that support safe and explainable AI in financial operations.
  • Build a flexible architecture to support rapid prototyping and deployment of AI use cases.

5. Leadership & Governance

  • Partner closely with Controllers, Internal Audit, Procurement, and IT to align on priorities and compliance requirements.
  • Ensure solutions meet SOX, audit, and data privacy standards.

Build and lead a cross-functional team including engineers, data scientists, and business analysts.
