Finance Systems & Transformation Manager

We're looking for a Finance Systems & Transformation Manager to own the technology ecosystem that powers ClickHouse's Finance organization. This is a rare, high-impact role at the intersection of Finance, Engineering, and Operations, reporting to the Corporate Controller and serving as the Finance technology leader. 

In this role, you'll own Finance systems end-to-end such as implementations, integrations, data integrity, AI adoption, and the governance framework that keeps it all running reliably. If you've thrived in high-growth environments, love building systems that didn't exist before, and want to do work that directly shapes a company's path to IPO, this role is built for you.

What You'll Do

Process Transformation & Strategic Leadership

• Develop and own the long-term Finance Systems roadmap, ensuring investments align with business priorities and operational scalability.
• Lead Finance's technology transformation by driving strategic initiatives that modernize business processes, improve effectiveness, and enable the Finance team to scale toward public-company readiness.
• Challenge existing Finance workflows such as Record-to-Report, Procure-to-Pay, and Order-to-Cash to identify opportunities to simplify, standardize, and automate.
• Serve as the bridge between Finance and technical teams, translating business requirements into scalable system solutions and owning successful delivery, adoption, and change management.

System Implementations

• Lead enterprise-wide Finance system implementations, major enhancements, and platform migrations.
• Own cross-functional dependency mapping for every implementation by documenting upstream and downstream impacts.
• Embed IT General Controls (ITGCs) into each new system as it's implemented, building the SOX-ready control environment required for a public company.

Integration Management & Data Integrity

• Lead the implementation of integrations and remediate recurring failure points across the Finance technology stack, reducing manual intervention and improving data reliability.
• Own the integrity of Finance data flows across all integrated systems by proactively identifying breakdowns, resolving mapping failures, and eliminating manual workarounds that create control risk.
• Develop scalable reconciliation frameworks and automated controls that surface discrepancies in real time, before they reach financial reporting.

AI & Automation

• Design, prototype, and deploy AI agents and intelligent workflows that automate repetitive processes, manage exceptions, improve reconciliations, and increase the speed and accuracy of Finance operations.
• Partner with Engineering, IT, and business stakeholders to design and deploy secure, governed AI-enabled workflows that improve productivity, reduce manual effort, and enhance decision-making.
• Define the governance framework for AI adoption in Finance by developing data access controls, acceptable use policies, auditability standards, and human-in-the-loop checkpoints.

What You Bring Along

• 7+ years of experience in Finance Systems, Enterprise Applications, Business Systems, or Finance Transformation within a high-growth technology company. You’ve been in this environment before and know what it demands.
• Deep understanding of Finance business processes: Record-to-Report, Order-to-Cash, Procure-to-Pay, Treasury, and the Financial Close.
• Proven track record leading enterprise system implementations and large, cross-functional initiatives from requirements through go-live and adoption.
• Hands-on experience owning and optimizing Finance technology ecosystems: NetSuite is required; experience with Stripe, Ramp, Workday, or CaptivateIQ is a meaningful plus.
• Experience designing and managing integrations across enterprise business applications. You understand what breaks, why it breaks, and how to fix it at the root.
• Strong data skills: SQL, API integrations, data transformation (dbt), and moving data between the warehouse and the Finance stack.
