We are seeking an Accounting Data & Technology Manager to join our Global Accounting team and serve as the architect of the redesign of our accounting processes by building automation solutions and managing data pipelines that power our global accounting organization. You will serve as the accounting team's S/4HANA expert - the person who ensures our in-flight SAP implementation reflects best practice rather than a lift-and-shift of how we operate in NetSuite today.\nYou will be responsible for bridging the gap between our team's subject matter experts, our technology solutions, and the business data needed to support accounting operations. In addition to SAP ownership, this role will build purposeful, reliable solutions on top of the Databricks platform and Finance Datalake to accelerate global accounting operations.\nDuring the SAP implementation, you will work alongside our system integrator to challenge design decisions, identify where SAP's native capabilities can replace manual workarounds, and ensure the accounting team is building on the right foundation from day one. \nPost go-live, the role transitions to continuous improvement - owning automation opportunities, streamlining close processes as SAP capabilities evolve, and ensuring Databricks is getting progressively more value out of the platform over time rather than running it as a static system. \nThis is a rare opportunity to shape a major ERP platform from day one at one of the world's fastest-growing technology companies, with the autonomy to define how SAP works for accounting at Databricks - and how it connects to the most advanced data and AI platform in the market.\nWhat You'll Do\nSAP Implementation Governance (Near-Term)\nWork alongside our system integrator as the accounting team's internal SAP S/4HANA subject matter expert throughout the implementation program.\nChallenge design decisions and configuration choices - ensuring they reflect SAP best practice rather than replicating current-state NetSuite processes.\nIdentify where SAP's native capabilities (standard workflows, automated postings, embedded analytics, Fiori apps) can replace manual workarounds and custom development.\nOwn the accounting team's requirements, testing, and sign-off for SAP configuration across core FICO areas - general ledger, accounts payable, accounts receivable, fixed assets, and close management.\nPartner with our system integrator, IT and Finance Transformation to ensure data migration, chart of accounts design, and master data governance meet accounting's needs.\nContinuous Improvement & Optimization (Post Go-Live)\nOwn the SAP continuous improvement roadmap for accounting - identifying automation opportunities, process simplifications, and new SAP capabilities as they are released.\nStreamline close processes within SAP - driving adoption of native automation, reducing cycle time, eliminating manual steps, and improving data quality with each close cycle.\nMonitor system performance and proactively address configuration issues, data quality gaps, and process bottlenecks.\nCollaborate with Tax, Treasury, FP&A, Accounts Payable, Revenue, and Procurement to ensure SAP configuration supports end-to-end finance processes - not just accounting in isolation.\nEnsure SOX-relevant system controls (automated, access and change management controls) within SAP are properly configured, documented, and operating effectively.\nSAP × Databricks Platform Integration\nOwn the design and governance of how SAP accounting data flows into the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform - ensuring clean, timely, and well-structured data for financial reporting, analytics, and AI use cases.\nPartner with Data Engineering and Finance Systems to define the SAP-to-Databricks integration architecture - including extraction patterns, data models, and refresh cadences that support close timelines and ad-hoc analysis.\nIdentify opportunities to leverage Databricks' AI and automation capabilities on top of SAP data - such as anomaly detection on journal entries, predictive accruals, automated reconciliation matching, and natural-language reporting via Genie.\nServe as the accounting team's voice in shaping how Databricks' own platform is used for internal finance operations - ensuring the company is a best-practice reference customer for its own technology.\nWhat We're Looking For\nRequired Qualifications\n8+ years of progressive experience in accounting systems, ERP administration, or finance technology - with deep, hands-on SAP S/4HANA FICO experience.\nDemonstrated expertise in SAP S/4HANA configuration across core accounting areas: general ledger, accounts payable, accounts receivable, fixed assets, and financial close and consolidation.\nExperience participating in or leading at least one full-cycle SAP S/4HANA implementation - ideally on the business/functional side rather than purely technical.\nStrong understanding of accounting close processes, U.S. GAAP, and how ERP configuration decisions impact financial reporting.\nExperience with SAP master data governance, chart of accounts design, and configuration documentation.\nSOX experience - understanding how system controls, access management, and segregation of duties operate within SAP.\nAbility to translate between accounting business requirements and SAP technical configuration - comfortable working with both accountants and technical consultants.\nStrong communication skills - able to articulate system design trade-offs to senior finance leadership clearly and concisely.\nHigh ownership, attention to detail, and the ability to work independently without constant direction.\nPreferred Qualifications\nSAP S/4HANA certification (e.g., SAP Certified Application Associate - Financial Accounting).\nExperience with SAP Central Finance, SAP Analytics Cloud, or SAP BTP.\nCPA, CA, or equivalent professional accounting certification.\nExperience working at a high-growth technology or SaaS company.\nPrior experience working on SAP implementations.\nFamiliarity with NetSuite (helpful for understanding the current-state processes being migrated).\nExperience with Databricks or other data platforms.\nPublic accounting experience (Big 4 or equivalent).\nWhy This Role\nShape SAP from day one - you are not inheriting a legacy system. You will define how SAP works for accounting at Databricks, with the authority to ensure it is built right the first time.\nChallenge, don't just configure - this role exists specifically to push back on \"that's how we've always done it\" and ensure the implementation reflects what SAP can do, not what NetSuite did.\nOwn the platform long-term - this is not a project role. Post go-live, you will own continuous improvement, automation, and system operations - ensuring Databricks gets progressively more value from SAP over time.\nBuild on the Databricks platform - this is not a typical ERP role. You will define how SAP connects to the most advanced data and AI platform in the market, shaping how accounting data is used for reporting, analytics, and AI-driven automation. Few finance roles anywhere offer this combination.\nWork at the intersection of accounting and technology - partner with a world-class finance team, a leading SI, and Databricks' own engineering organization to build something exceptional.\nGrow your career - gain deep exposure to global accounting operations, finance transformation, and enterprise technology at one of the world's fastest-growing companies.\nPay Range Transparency\nDatabricks is committed to fair and equitable compensation practices.
