Revenue Accounting Manager

Responsibilities

• Lead the Contract Review process end-to-end: evaluate non-standard and complex customer contracts, determine the appropriate ASC 606 treatment, and document technical accounting positions in memos that stand up to auditor, leadership, and SEC-reporting scrutiny.
• Drive automation and enhancement of existing processes and controls: scope and lead improvements to revenue systems, close activities, and control design — from business case through go-live — eliminating manual effort while improving accuracy and timeliness.
• Partner with Sales, Legal, and Deal Desk teams during contract negotiations to structure deals and optimize revenue outcomes, advising on terms that affect revenue timing, classification, and presentation before agreements are signed.
• Support internal and external audits and maintain SOX compliance: own the revenue control narratives, deliver audit-ready support, and resolve requests directly with internal audit and our external auditors.
• Own complex, ambiguous revenue issues that require in-depth evaluation of variable factors (material right options, variable consideration, contract modifications), determining the methods and procedures to apply where precedent does not yet exist.
• Build AI-enabled routines across revenue workstreams — contract review triage, memo drafting, reconciliation and anomaly detection, and audit-support preparation — while setting clear guardrails for quality, privacy, and where human accounting judgment must remain explicit.
• Champion, role model, and embed Samsara’s cultural principles (Focus on Customer Success
• Build for the Long Term, Adopt a Growth Mindset, Be Inclusive, Win as a Team) as we scale globally and across new offices.
• Hire, develop, and lead an inclusive, engaged, and high performing team.
