Job Description
Join Peregrine as a Revenue Accountant, where you will be the technical backbone of our revenue recognition function. You will own the mechanics of ASC 606 in practice, prepare revenue journal entries, and draft workpapers that support our revenue recognition process. This role combines disciplined monthly close execution with contract-level analysis, historical revenue projects, and audit support. You will have the opportunity to deepen your revenue accounting expertise in a growing SaaS business.
- Ownership of the mechanics of ASC 606 in practice, including building and maintaining the monthly revenue waterfall, preparing revenue journal entries, and drafting workpapers.
- Independently preparing technical analyses and recommendations, partnering closely with the Revenue Accounting Manager on revenue recognition matters.
- Drafting the annual ASC 606 workpaper set, including performance obligation analyses, standalone selling price reviews, and contract-level revenue patterns.
- Solid working knowledge of the ASC 606 five-step model, including SSP, contract modifications, variable consideration, and performance obligation identification
- Experience with month-end close mechanics: journal entry preparation, account reconciliation, multi-currency transactions, and audit workpaper support
- Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field or equivalent experience
- A proven record of accuracy and follow-through, with the ability to work against a fixed close calendar and flag risk to it in advance
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to translate complex revenue information into clear analyses, provide recommendations, and collaborate effectively across teams
- 2+ years of public accounting experience in audit or advisory, ideally with technology or SaaS clients, providing a strong foundation in ASC 606
- Nice to have: NetSuite experience, and exposure to government or public-sector contracts — milestone billing, multi-agency or consortium billing structures, or public-sector procurement terms
- Strong spreadsheet skills, including formulas and reconciling data across systems
- 5+ years of operational, in-house SaaS revenue accounting experience applying ASC 606 to revenue waterfalls, performance obligation analyses, and a live contract population
- Ability to independently draft technically sound workpapers, identify open judgment questions, and present clear recommendations for review
