Position Summary

LTi Technology Solutions is seeking a Controller to serve as a critical operational and technical partner within a lean, high-impact Finance & Accounting function. This role is designed for an experienced accounting leader who thrives at the intersection of hands-on close ownership and the systems and process work required to scale.

Reporting directly to the VP, Finance & Accounting, this position will own day-to-day accounting operations — including the monthly close, financial reporting, revenue recognition, sales tax compliance, and audit execution — while leading a team of two Senior Accountants and partnering on LTi's active migration from Microsoft Dynamics GP to Oracle NetSuite. The ideal candidate brings deep technical accounting expertise, strong process discipline, and the ability to work autonomously in a fast-moving environment.

Technical Accounting & Compliance

• Own ASC 606 revenue recognition policy, execution, and documentation, including deferred revenue rollforward and sales commissions accounting
• Author technical accounting memos for unusual transactions and new contract types
• Lead audit execution, including PBC list management, auditor communication, and remediation of findings
• Coordinate tax compliance and reporting with outside firms
• Own multi-state sales tax compliance, including nexus analysis, registration, and filing execution
• Design, document, and enforce internal controls appropriate for the company's size and stage

Systems, Process & NetSuite Implementation

• Serve as a key partner in the active migration from Dynamics GP to NetSuite, including requirements definition, chart of accounts design, data conversion, testing, and cutover
• Own accounting-side design decisions during the implementation, including revenue recognition, subscription billing, and reporting configuration
• Establish reconciliation templates, close calendars, and journal entry standards
• Identify and implement process improvements and automation opportunities
• Support treasury operations, including bank reconciliations, wire approvals, and cash positioning

Team Leadership & Development

• Manage and develop a team of two Senior Accountants covering revenue and billing operations, general ledger, and accounts payable
• Set clear expectations, priorities, and performance goals
• Provide coaching and feedback that supports the team's professional growth
• Foster cross-training and reduce single-person dependencies within the accounting team

Strategic & Cross-Functional Support

• Partner with the VP, Finance & Accounting on audit readiness, technical accounting decisions, and reporting improvements
• Collaborate with cross-functional partners including Sales, Customer Success, Legal, and IT on matters that touch accounting or reporting
• Contribute to a culture of accountability, continuous improvement, and operational excellence
