About the Role

We are looking for a highly motivated and detail-oriented Financial Compute Analyst to join our Accounting team. This role will help build and run the accounting, allocation, and reporting for compute cost of revenue as the company continues to scale.

Compute is by far our largest expense category and the single biggest driver of gross margin. Cloud spend runs across a growing set of CSP and neocloud vendors under a mix of on-demand, reserved, prepaid, and committed-capacity structures — each with its own invoicing cadence, true-up mechanics, and credit terms. The ideal candidate is comfortable turning GPU utilization data into defensible accounting conclusions and enjoys building the schedules, reconciliations, and controls that make cost of revenue accurate, explainable, and auditable.

This is a hands-on role that will partner closely with Infrastructure, Capital Efficiency, FP&A, Procurement, Partnerships, and Data teams to ensure compute costs are captured in the right period, classified to the right cost center, and reported in a way the business can actually use.

Responsibilities

• Support the monthly close for compute cost of revenue, including preparing cloud cost journal entries, accruals for unbilled usage, prepaid amortization, true-ups to actual usage, and supporting schedules.

• Perform reconciliations of GPU utilization data to CSP invoices, contracted capacity, and the general ledger; research utilization-to-billed variances, idle capacity, and billing discrepancies, and escalate complex items with a proposed resolution.

• Prepare and maintain prepaid cloud balance schedules, including short-term/long-term classification, amortization tied to committed capacity, and rollforwards that tie to contract terms, for senior review.

• Support the accounting for complex vendor and partnership arrangements, including committed spend, prepayment and reimbursement structures, revenue share, SLA and downtime credits, and capacity arranged through third parties.
