About the role

(GAQ427R221) Databricks is looking for a Revenue Accounting Manager to join our team. You will report to the Manager of Revenue Accounting and play a hands-on leadership role across the full revenue accounting close cycle, from evaluating complex contract terms and applying ASC 606, to leading UAT for new system logic, to preparing financial reporting deliverables for internal and external stakeholders. This is an individual contributor position with significant ownership and cross-functional influence. Our revenue accounting environment is evolving rapidly. New SKUs, new go-to-market motions, shifting policy requirements and system migrations are the norm. We need someone who thrives in ambiguity, adapts when priorities shift and takes ownership of complex problems. Our ideal candidate has a builder’s mindset: someone who digs into the details, challenges existing processes and leads improvements that make the close faster, more accurate and scalable.

Identify opportunities to improve quality and compress the close timeline. Apply ASC 606 with sound judgment. Evaluate complex and non-standard customer arrangements, document accounting conclusions and ensure consistent application of revenue recognition policies as our product portfolio evolves. Dig into the details. Pull, validate and troubleshoot data directly across contracts, billing systems, revenue systems and the general ledger. Trace discrepancies to the source and drive them through resolution. Own key revenue accounts. Manage revenue subledger-to-GL reconciliations for deferred revenue, contract assets and unbilled accounts receivable. Ensure balances are accurate, complete and supported. Turn data into insights. Analyze large datasets and explain key drivers affecting revenue, unbilled revenue, deferred revenue and other financial metrics. Provide clear recommendations to management. Lead system and process improvements. Define business requirements, lead UAT, assess accounting impacts and partner with Engineering and Finance Data Services to implement scalable solutions across revenue, billing and ERP systems. Automate relentlessly. Identify manual, repetitive processes and take ownership of building or championing automation through SQL, scripts, AI tools, workflow improvements or systematic solutions. Leverage AI to work smarter. Use AI tools and large language models to accelerate contract analysis, memo preparation, data reviews, reconciliations and process improvements. Strengthen internal controls. Execute and improve SOX controls, maintain clear documentation and ensure revenue processes comply with company policies. Support financial reporting.
