About the Role
Figure is hiring a Director, Revenue Accounting to lead accounting across Figure's technology and lending revenue and the balance sheet accounts that go with it — loans, receivables, and related reserves. You'll own core close processes, build scalable infrastructure, and partner cross-functionally to support a rapidly growing platform, with the loan accounting function reporting into you.
This is a high-ownership role with direct responsibility for people, processes, and systems spanning revenue and its related balance sheets across the business.
What You’ll Do
- Take full accountability for month-end close across revenue and its related balance sheet accounts — loans, receivables, and reserves — this means owning the outcome, not just overseeing the process.
- Prepare and deliver clear and concise reporting on close status, open items and risk areas to the Controller, escalating issues proactively with recommended solutions.
- Oversee accounting for loan origination, servicing, and sales, along with technology and platform revenue, with meticulous attention to accuracy and completeness.
- Own the balance sheet accounts tied to that revenue — loans, accounts receivable, and reserves — ensuring they're accurately valued, reconciled, and supported.
- Accountable for the accuracy, completeness and timeliness of financial statements, ensure all revenue and related balance sheet positions are well supported and audit ready documentation at every close.
- Design accounting frameworks and policies that are built to scale, anticipating the needs of a growing business, not just solving for today.
- Partner with Technical Accounting to establish and maintain revenue recognition policies and controls that hold up under audit and regulatory scrutiny.
- Support new product launches by thinking through the full accounting lifecycle from day one, so that downstream processes are clean and defensible from the start.
- Identify risks and opportunities in our accounting infrastructure before they become problems, and develop a roadmap to address them.
- Serve as the primary accounting liaison to Product and Engineering on new product launches, evaluating accounting implications from inception and ensuring revenue flows are accurately reflected in the ledger from day one.
- Manage and grow a high-performing accounting team, including the loan accounting function, setting clear expectations and holding people accountable with both directness and care.
- Leverage large, complex data sets to investigate and resolve reconciliation variances across revenue and related balance sheet accounts, driving root cause analysis and implementing long term solutions.
- Work with the Director of Internal Controls on design, documentation, and ongoing monitoring of SOX controls across revenue accounting processes to ensure control effectiveness and audit readiness.
What We Look For
- 10+ years of progressive accounting experience, including at least 5 years in a people management role - ideally in fintech, or a high-growth environment with complex or multi-stream revenue.
- Deep knowledge of GAAP revenue recognition, related balance sheet accounting, and reconciliation management at scale.
- Demonstrated experience designing and improving accounting systems and workflows, not just operating within them.
- Strong analytical skills with demonstrated ability to work through large data sets to resolve complex reconciliation variances.
- Experience managing accounting across multiple or diverse revenue streams preferred.
- Experience with SOX compliance, including maintaining controls in a public company or pre-IPO environment.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, with a track record of reporting financial status and risk clearly to Controllers, CFO, or equivalent management.
- Experience collaborating directly with Product and Engineering teams, with the ability to translate accounting requirements into system and operational design.
- Adhere to all company security policies and data handling procedures.
- Complete mandatory security awareness training within required timeframes.
- Promptly report any suspected security incidents or suspicious activity to the Security team.
