• Process Improvement: identify opportunities to streamline and automate the processes and implement or upgrade the systems related to the supervised areas.
• Coordinate with external auditors during the annual audit process, providing necessary documentation and explanations related to revenue recognition. 
• Supervise and mentor a global team primarily based out of the APAC region, providing guidance and support in their day-to-day activities.
• Collaborate with sales, customer success, and revenue operations, to review and structure contracts, ensuring proper revenue recognition and reporting.
