Senior Technical Accountant at Mixpanel · LumiJobs · LumiJobs

Responsibilities

The Senior Technical Accountant will own Mixpanel s most technically complex accounting workstreams, including revenue recognition, equity accounting, and consolidated financial reporting. This is a dedicated role for a technically strong accountant who can operate independently, advise cross-functional partners on accounting implications, and ensure our highest-risk close areas are covered with rigor and accuracy.
Reporting to the Controller, this individual will be a trusted subject matter expert across ASC 606, stock-based compensation, and group financial statement preparation—partnering closely with FP A, Legal, and external auditors to deliver accurate, well-controlled financials every period. As the company grows, this role will evolve into a broader technical accounting function, with the expectation that this person will help shape that buildout.
Own the monthly revenue close, including flux analysis, deferred revenue review, renewals reconciliation, and reconciliation between internal systems.
Research and document accounting positions for complex, non-routine transactions, including contract modifications, variable consideration, new product offerings, and warrant-related entries.
Prepare and review stock-based compensation accounting on a quarterly basis, including journal entries, disclosures, and variance analysis.
Prepare group financial statements, including consolidation and entity-level reporting required for lender compliance.
Draft, maintain, and evolve the ASC 606 revenue recognition policy memo and related revenue playbook, keeping both current with business and product changes.
Advise cross-functional partners—Finance, Legal, Sales Operations, and Product—on accounting implications of business decisions, contract structures, and new go-to-market offerings.
Serve as the primary preparer and day-to-day liaison with external auditors for revenue and equity-related items, including PBC management and audit readiness.
Translate complex technical accounting concepts into clear, practical guidance for non-accounting stakeholders and leadership.
Use AI tools to accelerate technical research, memo drafting, and close process improvements—consistent with Mixpanel s commitment to being an AI-native organization.
Support SOX-readiness by maintaining strong controls and documentation across all owned workstreams.
