Domain Expert - ERP(NetSuite)

NetSuite knowledge we require

Core (required of all candidates)

• Knows how to run a month-end close in NetSuite end to end: accruals, reclasses, the period close checklist, and locking periods, not just post a single journal entry

• Knows how to reconcile a subledger (AP, AR, bank, inventory) to the general ledger and trace a variance back to the transaction that caused it

• Knows how intercompany transactions and eliminations work across subsidiaries in NetSuite OneWorld, including currency revaluation and consolidated reporting

• Knows how to judge cutoff: which period a transaction belongs in, and when a posted entry needs reversing rather than editing

• Knows how to build and read saved searches and reports well enough to verify a number, not just export one

Specialized depth (strong working knowledge in at least 2–3 of the following)

• Revenue recognition under ASC 606 (Advanced Revenue Management, revenue arrangements and schedules)

• Procure-to-pay: purchase orders, vendor bills, three-way match, approval routing

• Order-to-cash: sales orders, invoicing, customer payments, credit memos, collections

• Inventory and costing (standard vs. average cost, landed cost, inventory adjustments)

• Fixed assets and amortization schedules

• Multi-book or multi-currency accounting

• NetSuite administration as a user or admin: roles and permissions, approval workflows, custom fields

What you'll do

• Confirm a posted entry, reconciliation, or close step is actually correct in the ledger, not just that a transaction exists

• Catch entries posted to the wrong period, account, subsidiary, or currency, and changes made to records the task never asked to touch

• Judge completeness: did the work account for every related transaction (the original bill, the credit memo, the intercompany leg), or stop at the first one

• Distinguish "the system allowed it" from "an accountant would sign off on it": flag work that posts cleanly but breaks policy or cutoff

• Verify that a request that should be refused (a closed period, a missing approval, a record that does not exist) is refused rather than forced through

Requirements

• Frequent NetSuite use - weekly or more - for accounting work in your current or recent role

• 3+ years of professional accounting experience, including month-end close

• Can spot a misposted entry, an unreconciled variance, or a cutoff error on sight

• CPA (active or inactive) preferred; otherwise a degree in accounting or finance, or equivalent controller-level experience

• Strong working knowledge in at least 2–3 specialized areas above

• Hands-on experience as a NetSuite user or administrator; SuiteScript development or implementation-only experience does not qualify on its own

• Prior data annotation, labeling, or AI evaluation experience is a plus
