Requirements
• 7+ years’ experience — ideally Big 4 plus growth-stage SaaS or tech company background. • Deep knowledge of U.S. GAAP and ASC 606. • Proven success leading an ERP implementation and driving systems improvement. • Experience with multi-entity consolidations and international subsidiaries. • Hands-on operator who documents, automates, and follows through. • Comfortable managing external and offshore teams; clear communicator and builder of process. • You’re a builder and operator who thrives in fast-moving environments where people take ownership. You take pride in getting things done thoughtfully, efficiently, and without drama. You’re energized by ambiguity, skilled at bringing clarity, and comfortable moving between strategy and execution. • You value feedback in all directions and see collaboration as a competitive advantage. You’re low ego but high initiative: you care about collective success more than personal credit. You move quickly, communicate directly, and make decisions grounded in impact and data. • You’re proactive and create momentum when you see an opportunity. You care about doing things well and helping others do the same. • We work with focus and intention, holding ourselves to a high bar while respecting the need for balance. Axion Ray isn’t a traditional 9 to 5 job, but it’s also not a place that glorifies overwork. We take pride in the work, support each other through hard problems, and make space to recharge. • We’re a highly collaborative team that stays connected throughout the day, often over Slack. We share feedback freely, communicate clearly, and make decisions quickly so we can keep momentum without unnecessary meetings. If you value openness, iteration, and shared problem-solving, you’ll fit right in. • Collaborate deeply. Feedback is part of how we build; everyone has a voice, and ideas win on merit. • Leave ego at the door. Titles don’t define value—contribution does. • Bias toward action. We favor progress over perfection and learn as we go. • Communicate with clarity. Direct, transparent, and always in service of the mission. • Act like owners. Everyone is accountable for outcomes, not just tasks. • Aim for excellence sustainably. We challenge ourselves, support each other, and stay in it for the long game. • If you’re excited to help shape a company redefining how manufacturing operates—and you thrive in a culture built on ownership, clarity, and trust—you’ll feel at home here.
