About the role
We are hiring an Accounting Automation Engineer to replace manual accounting work across a multi-entity, multi-country enterprise, using Claude Code and agentic AI.
You will use Claude Code and agentic AI, plus Python or JavaScript/TypeScript, to automate accounts payable, accounts receivable, reconciliations, month-end close and the wider day-to-day accounting operation. You need strong IFRS or US GAAP knowledge to get the numbers right, because an automation that posts wrong entries is worse than no automation.
Key Responsibilities
The goal is to automate the repeatable core of enterprise accounting, with human review kept only where judgment is needed.
Accounts payable
Invoice capture and data extraction from PDFs and email, using AI where useful
Vendor matching, coding suggestions, and 2-way/3-way PO matching
Duplicate invoice detection and approval routing
Payment run preparation and vendor statement reconciliation
Accounts receivable
Invoice generation and delivery
Cash application and bank receipt matching
Aging reports, dunning and collections reminders
Credit note handling and bad debt/ECL provision support
Reconciliations
Bank and card reconciliations across all accounts and currencies
Balance sheet account reconciliations (prepayments, accruals, deferred revenue, fixed assets)
Intercompany and subledger-to-GL reconciliations
Exception reports that flag only the items a human needs to review
Month-end close
Close checklist tracking and scheduled reminders
Recurring, accrual, prepayment and amortization journals
Depreciation runs and FX revaluation
Trial balance checks, flux/variance analysis, and draft commentary
Management reporting packs
General accounting operations
Expense report and employee reimbursement checks
Chart of accounts and master data hygiene
Audit support: evidence collection, PBC lists, sample extraction
Data pipelines between ERP, banks, payment platforms and spreadsheets
Qualifications
Two things matter most, and we weigh them above everything else:
Strong knowledge of IFRS or US GAAP
Real experience with AI coding tools, ideally Claude Code, backed by solid engineering basics
We accept two paths: an accountant who learned to code, or an engineer who learned accounting. Both are judged on the same practical test.
