From the original posting

Founded in 2014 by Harshil Mathur and Shashank Kumar with a simple vision - to simplify payments for Indian businesses - we’ve since grown into a fintech powerhouse driving India’s digital payment revolution.
About the Role
We are looking for a finance professional who refuses to be just a gatekeeper. This role is not about data entry; it is about Data Architecture and Business Strategy.
You will act as the de-facto Finance Lead for the Engage vertical, bridging the gap between strict Audit compliance and aggressive Sales targets. We need a "builder"—someone who can construct complex financial models, automate reporting logic, and sit across the table from Business Heads to drive P&L decisions.
Roles and Responsibilities
- Strategic Revenue Modelling
- Revenue Modelling: Manage complex revenue recognition models You will be responsible for maintaining the logic that allows us to recognize revenue progressively rather than as a lump sum.
- Sales Enablement: Act as a POC to the Sales team. Maintain and upgrade "Scenario Simulators" that help Key Account Managers structure profitable deals and predict their incentive achievements in real-time.
- Controllership & Audit Management
- Audit lead: Take ownership of the statutory audit for the division. You must be able to defend complex revenue positions to external auditors with deep technical rationale (IFRS/IndAS).
- Month-End Precision: Own the month-end close process. Ensure 100% accuracy in accruals and provisions, minimizing the timeline between month-end and final reporting.
- Working Capital & Cash Flow
- Liquidity Management: Monitor the AP/AR split to ensure the division remains cash-flow positive, proactively flagging liquidity risks to the central treasury
- Automation & Process Design
- Reporting Architecture: Move away from manual Excel dependencies. Maintain and build live dashboards (Looker/Excel) to give leadership a real-time view of "Forecast vs. Actuals."
- Process Improvement: Identify bottlenecks in billing or reconciliation (e.g., Engineering/Product gaps) and lead cross-functional projects to fix them permanently.
Mandatory Qualifications
- Education: CA / ACCA / MBA (Finance) or equivalent from a reputed institute.
- Experience: 2–4 years of experience. Prior exposure to Fintech, SaaS, or high-transaction environments is a massive plus.
- Advanced Excel: VLOOKUPs, Index-Match, Pivot Tables and Advanced Excel fluency. You must know how to build models that don't crash under heavy data.
- Data Fluency: Basic knowledge of SQL or experience with BI tools (Looker/PowerBI) is highly desirable.
- Compliance: Strong grasp of Revenue Recognition standards (IndAS 115).
- First-Principles Thinker: You don't just follow the process; you ask, "Why does this process exist?" and fix it if it's broken. You are able to formulate new methodologies and come up with better fixes to problems on the go.
- Effective Communicator: You can explain complex accounting constraints to a sales head without using jargon.
- Mentor Mindset: Ability to guide and upskill interns/junior analysts, fostering a culture of ownership within the team.
