• Own work-in-process schedules, calculate percentage-of-completion revenue on fixed-fee engagements, and validate time-and-materials billing

• Maintain serial-level asset registers for GPU and compute nodes with Infrastructure and Technical Operations, covering transfers, RMAs, retirements, and disposals
• Reconcile high-volume vendor and colocation invoices to contracts, purchase orders, and asset receipts, and monitor open purchase commitments

• Execute assigned month-end and quarter-end close activities: journal entries, accruals, reconciliations, and flux analysis on project and contract balances
• Prepare revenue and cost-of-revenue schedules supporting management, sponsor, and lender reporting
• Serve as a primary preparer for external audit and diligence requests covering revenue, WIP, deferred revenue, and fixed assets
• Monitor data quality across the ERP, billing, procurement, and asset systems that feed accounting, and improve process and controls as the business scales

• Serve as the accounting subject-matter expert on complex projects and contracts, advising Sales, Legal, Operations, and Procurement before issues reach billing or close
• Lead recurring financial reviews with project and operational leadership on contract performance, margin risk, billing issues, and financial exposure

• Working knowledge of ASC 606, including multi-element arrangements and variable consideration
• Hands-on experience with percentage-of-completion, WIP, unbilled revenue, and deferred revenue schedules
