About the role Hi, my name is Eric Anderson, Senior Controller at Customer.io, and I'm looking for a Revenue Manager to own our monthly revenue close as we scale into consumption-based and hybrid billing models. We don't have a dedicated revenue accounting owner today — I'm the escalation point for every technical question, and our billing infrastructure project (Metronome/Stripe) is moving fast. This role will run point on the close, partner closely with Rev Ops, Deal Desk, and Legal, and help build out the process as our revenue streams get more complex. What we value Ownership — you'll run the monthly close autonomously once ramped, not wait to be told what's next. Judgment over perfection — you know the operational fundamentals cold, and you know when a question needs to go to Eric.

Starting salary for this role is $99k–$139k USD depending on location and experience, and subject to market rate adjustment. We ...
