Position Overview

Archera is seeking a Senior GL Accountant to own and scale our general ledger and day-to-day accounting operations as we grow across multiple entities and cloud ecosystems. Reporting into Archera's accounting leadership, you will own the full procure-to-pay cycle, maintain our spend controls, and drive an accurate, on-time monthly and quarterly close. This is a builder's role: you'll establish and document scalable processes where few exist yet, partnering closely with Finance, Product, Sales, and Engineering to keep our books accurate, compliant, and audit-ready. It's ideal for a hands-on, detail-oriented accountant who thrives in a high-growth environment and wants to help build a finance function from the ground up.

  • Maintain prepaid asset schedules and amortization, and manage lease accounting and amortization in accordance with ASC 842.
  • Manage cash and banking activity, including reconciliations across multiple entities.
  • Support GL, budget, and close activities, and partner with FP&A and leadership on variance analysis.
  • Responsible for state and multi-state tax compliance and reporting.
  • Prepare ad hoc reporting and analysis for Finance and cross-functional stakeholders.
  • Drive system and process improvements across the accounting tool stack (e.g., Sage Intacct, RAMP, FloQast) to build and maintain scalable, well-documented processes in a rapidly growing, multi-entity environment.

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection.

Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
