Make Your Mark: We're looking for a Senior Director, Technical Accounting & Financial Reporting to serve as BlackLine's subject-matter expert across complex accounting and external reporting, while playing a leading role in the transformation of our own finance organization. Beyond owning the technical accounting and SEC/financial reporting mandate, this leader will drive three strategic initiatives that make BlackLine's finance team a showcase for the market: advancing our Customer Zero journey (being the first and best user of our own platform), leading AI adoption across the reporting function, and owning the strategy and rollout of our data warehouse reporting capability. This is a rare opportunity to shape both what we report and how modern finance teams should operate in the agentic era. You'll Get To: Technical Accounting & Financial Reporting (Subject-Matter Expert) Serve as the go-to authority on complex and emerging accounting matters (e.g., revenue recognition/ASC 606, business combinations, stock-based compensation, leases, debt/equity, and other judgmental areas), delivering clear, well-documented technical accounting positions and memos. Own the preparation and review of external financial reporting deliverables, including SEC filings (10-K, 10-Q, 8-K), earnings support, and disclosures, ensuring accuracy, completeness, and compliance with US GAAP and SEC requirements. Monitor new accounting standards and regulatory developments, assess impact to BlackLine, and lead adoption and implementation. Partner with external auditors and internal audit; support SOX compliance and maintain a strong control environment across reporting processes. Act as a trusted advisor to the Controller, CAO, CFO, and cross-functional partners (FP&A, Legal, Tax, Treasury, Investor Relations) on the accounting implications of transactions and business decisions. Finance Transformation & Customer Zero Lead BlackLine's Customer Zero agenda for technical accounting and reporting - championing the adoption and use of our own products to run BlackLine's reporting processes. Push BlackLine's finance team to the leading edge of product usage, piloting new and early-release capabilities ahead of the broader market and pressure-testing them in a live, high-stakes enterprise environment.
