Accounts Payable Specialist

Mountain View, CA

About the Role 

Own accounts payable end to end at a fast-scaling AI-hardware company. As our dedicated AP Specialist, you’ll be the person vendors and employees actually deal with — processing invoices, running payments, onboarding new suppliers, and managing travel and expense. Reporting to the Controller, you’ll take AP from a shared responsibility to a real function with clean process behind it. 

This is a hands-on role at a company where the vendor base is unusually complex: foundries and OSAT partners overseas, contract manufacturers, EDA and IP licensors, lab equipment, and a team that travels internationally to make all of it happen. 

What You’ll Do 

Accounts Payable Operations 

  • Own the full AP cycle — invoice intake, coding, approval routing, three-way match against POs and receipts, and payment runs 
  • Manage vendor onboarding and maintenance: W-9 and W-8BEN-E collection, banking details, payment terms, and keeping the vendor master clean and accurate 
  • Partner with Supply Chain and Procurement on PO matching, receipts, and invoice discrepancies — and be the person who chases them down 
  • Process international and multi-currency payments, including wires, and track FX and fee impacts 

Travel and Credit card Operations 

  • Run the travel and expense program: expense report review and approval, corporate card administration, policy compliance, and employee support 
  • Support domestic and international travel logistics and booking, including trips to foundry, OSAT, and manufacturing partners 

General Accounting and Reporting 

  • Perform month end and quarter end close activities — journal entries, accruals, amortization reconciliations, aging review, and vendor statement reconciliation 
  • Perform fixed asset accounting including capitalization, depreciation, asset verification per accounting policies  
  • Prepare and review balance sheet reconciliations and month-over-month flux analysis, with clear written explanations of drivers for the Controller 
  • Serve as the primary contact for vendor inquiries and payment status, and keep those relationships smooth 
  • Prepare 1099 filings and support annual audit requests with clean documentation 
  • Build and document AP and T&E policies, controls, and workflow as the company grows 

What We’re Looking For 

  • 3+ years of accounts payable experience, ideally at a high-growth company 
  • Hands-on with an ERP or accounting system (NetSuite, QuickBooks, or equivalent) and AP automation tools (Bill.com, Ramp, Brex, Coupa, or similar) 
  • Experience administering a travel and expense platform (Navan, Expensify, Brex, or similar) 
  • Strong Excel skills and comfort reconciling high transaction volume accurately 
  • Detail-oriented and organized, with genuine ownership of your close deadlines 
  • Clear, service-minded communicator — you’ll be the face of finance to both vendors and employees 
  • Comfortable building process where none exists yet, and improving it as volume grows 
  • (Optional) International and multi-currency payments, W-8BEN-E and withholding, or 1099 filing experience 
  • (Optional) Hardware, manufacturing, or semiconductor industry background 
  • (Optional) Experience supporting an audit or implementing AP automation 

Full compensation packages are based on candidate experience and relevant certifications.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 07/31/2029

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.
