Job Overview:

Position Summary

The Revenue & Technical Accounting Manager will be a hands-on member of the Homecare Homebase (HCHB) accounting team, focused on the accuracy, completeness, and compliance of the company’s end-to-end Order-to-Cash process. This role will support the overall ownership of revenue recognition under ASC 606, validate the data that drives billing and revenue, perform revenue reconciliations, and provide high-quality support during month-end close and audit activities.

The right candidate is a detail-oriented SaaS accounting professional who can understand how a transaction moves from contract through billing, revenue recognition, subledger, and the general ledger—and then test whether each step is complete, accurate, and properly supported. This role will learn the existing processes, identify gaps, establish practical workflows, and build strong relationships with Sales, Revenue Operations, Finance, Operations, and Audit. This is an individual contributor role based in the Dallas–Fort Worth area with a hybrid schedule of two to three days per week in the office.

What You’ll Do

Revenue Recognition & ASC 606

  • Support the end-to-end revenue recognition process for all HCHB revenue streams, including SaaS subscriptions, implementation, professional services, renewals, amendments, upgrades, downgrades, credits, and other customer arrangements.
  • Apply and interpret ASC 606 in a practical SaaS environment, including identifying performance obligations, assessing contract modifications, evaluating variable consideration, and supporting transaction price allocation and revenue timing conclusions.
  • Review customer contracts, order forms, amendments, and non-standard terms for revenue implications and communicate clear conclusions to Accounting and business partners.
  • Maintain clear documentation, accounting analyses, and support for revenue recognition conclusions and recurring processes.
  • Partner with the CFO, Controller, and accounting team to strengthen revenue recognition processes and establish new workflows as the business evolves.

Order-to-Cash Validation & Revenue Controls

  • Validate the integrity of data across the full Order-to-Cash lifecycle—from Salesforce opportunity and contract data through billing, revenue schedules, invoicing, cash application, subledger activity, and Oracle Fusion general ledger reporting.
  • Perform recurring completeness and accuracy checks to identify missing, duplicated, delayed, or incorrectly configured transactions before they create revenue or billing gaps.
  • Reconcile system outputs and investigate variances across Zuora, Oracle Fusion Billing, Oracle Fusion ERP, Salesforce, and supporting operational reports.
  • Assess the effectiveness of existing controls, document gaps, and recommend practical improvements that improve accuracy, auditability, and close efficiency.
  • Partner with Sales, Revenue Operations, Finance, and Operations to resolve root causes—not only the downstream accounting symptoms—of billing and revenue issues.

Revenue Reconciliations & Month-End Close

  • Prepare and support monthly reconciliations for deferred revenue, unbilled revenue, billed and unbilled accounts receivable, contract assets and liabilities, revenue subledgers, and related general ledger accounts.
  • Support revenue-related journal entries, close schedules, flux analysis, variance explanations, and account reconciliations in accordance with the close calendar.
  • Substantiate revenue balances and activity with complete, traceable workpapers that can be understood by Accounting leadership and external auditors.
  • Identify unusual trends, unexpected movements, and potential revenue leakage, and escalate issues with clear analysis and recommended next steps.
  • Help improve the repeatability and timeliness of revenue close activities through better documentation, ownership, and workflow design.

Audit Support & Cross-Functional Partnership

  • Support internal and external audit requests related to revenue, billing, Order-to-Cash, reconciliations, and ASC 606, ensuring support is complete, accurate, and easy to follow.
  • Serve as a trusted accounting partner to Sales, Revenue Operations, Finance, Operations, and department heads when transactions or process changes may affect billing or revenue.
  • Build relationships across the organization to improve upstream data quality and create shared accountability for revenue accuracy.
  • Participate in special projects, system enhancements, process redesign, and other accounting initiatives as needed.

What Success Looks Like

In the first 6–12 months, you will:

  • Learn HCHB’s business model, systems, contracts, and existing revenue processes.
  • Identify gaps and risks across the end-to-end Order-to-Cash process, with particular focus on data validation, billing accuracy, and revenue completeness.
  • Establish or improve workflows for revenue substantiation, deferred and unbilled revenue reconciliations, issue resolution, and audit support.
  • Develop productive working relationships with department heads and cross-functional partners.
  • Help reduce revenue gaps, recurring reconciliation issues, and late surprises during month-end close.
  • Become a dependable day-to-day partner to the CFO, Controller, and accounting team in managing revenue recognition under ASC 606.

What You Bring

  • Bachelor’s degree in accounting, finance, or a related field.
  • Progressive accounting experience with meaningful hands-on experience in SaaS revenue accounting and ASC 606.
  • Strong understanding of revenue recognition across subscription, service, and other SaaS arrangements.
  • Experience supporting month-end close, account reconciliations, journal entries, variance analysis, and audit requests.
  • Demonstrated ability to validate data across multiple systems and trace transactions from source data to billing, revenue, and the general ledger.
  • Experience with Zuora, Oracle Fusion Billing, Oracle Fusion ERP, and Salesforce is strongly preferred.
  • Public accounting, internal audit, or SOX controls experience is beneficial; a CPA is a plus.
  • Strong Excel and analytical skills, with the ability to organize large data sets and identify exceptions.
  • Clear written and verbal communication, sound judgment, curiosity, and a collaborative working style.
  • Comfort working as an individual contributor in an evolving environment where processes may need to be built or improved.
