This is a full-cycle, dual-function accounting role — the candidate will own both the payables and receivables sides of the ledger. Day-to-day work includes invoice processing and vendor payments (AP), billing, collections, and cash application (AR), account reconciliations, and supporting month-end close. This is an onsite, individual contributor role at a growing company with private equity backing — meaning pace is fast, processes may still be maturing, and accuracy under pressure matters.The industrial/manufacturing background listed in the ATS suggests the company has a physical operations component alongside its software business. ERP experience (SAP, Epicor, or Infor LN specifically) is likely important given the tech and industrial context.D.
