Analog is looking for a hands-on Financial Controller to own accounting operations, close and compliance, and—critically—build a high-quality, professional reporting engine for leadership, investors, and internal stakeholders. There is a meaningful volume of reporting required, and we need it to be consistent, automated, and scalable (not manual spreadsheet-heavy work).

You’ll partner closely with the FD to develop clean reporting packs, automate recurring reporting workflows, and improve visibility through Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Power BI (e.g., cash waterfall, runway, unit economics, and performance dashboards).

• Own monthly/quarterly/year-end close (P&L, balance sheet, cash flow) and continuously improve close speed and accuracy.
• Maintain the general ledger, chart of accounts, accounting policies, and reconciliation discipline.
• Revenue recognition & contract accounting
  • Lead revenue recognition for subscription, milestone-based projects, implementation/services, and hardware-enabled offerings, including:
  • Partner with Sales/Delivery to ensure contract terms support clean accounting and reporting.
• Reporting excellence & automation (major focus)
  • Own the production of professional, board/investor-grade reporting that is clear, consistent, and decision-useful.
  • Build and maintain a recurring reporting cadence including (examples):
  • Monthly management reporting pack (financials + KPIs)
  • Cash runway and cash waterfall reporting
  • Gross margin by product line and customer/project profitability
  • Billing, collections, deferred revenue, churn, and backlog views
  • Reduce manual effort by automating reporting wherever possible:
  • Standardized Dynamics 365 reports, data models, and mapping
  • Power BI datasets/dashboards with governed definitions
  • Repeatable close checklist + automated reconciliations/controls
  • Templates and processes that scale with growth
• Cash, working capital & controls
  • Own AR/AP workflows, collections cadence, vendor payment runs, and working capital tracking.
  • Build and maintain a cash waterfall/runway view with clean reconciliation to books.
  • Implement controls and approval workflows appropriate for an early-stage company (procurement, expenses, authorization matrices).
• Systems, process design & data integrity
  • Be the finance systems owner for Microsoft Dynamics 365, including workflow design, master data governance, and control implementation.
  • Partner on Power BI reporting: finance KPIs, margin, cash, and operational analytics—ensuring metrics are consistent and auditable.
• Operational finance
  • Establish and monitor COGS and gross margin drivers (robot costs, field service/service costs, cloud/GPU/compute spend, logistics).
  • Improve project profitability tracking and inform pricing and delivery decisions.
  • Work closely with Sales, Ops, Engineering, and Delivery to ensure data integrity and finance alignment.
• Audit, tax & compliance
  • Coordinate external accountants/auditors; keep documentation diligence-ready.
  • Manage tax compliance (VAT/sales tax, payroll-related filings where applicable).

• 7-10 years progressive experience (Controller, Audit + industry, etc.).
• Strong technical accounting foundation (IFRS and/or US GAAP); revenue recognition experience (IFRS 15 / ASC 606).
• Track record of building high-quality recurring reporting and automating finance reporting workflows.
• Hands-on ERP experience;
  Microsoft Dynamics 365 strongly preferred.
• Strong Excel skills plus BI/reporting tools (Power BI preferred).
• High ownership, attention to detail, and strong cross-functional communication.

• Hardware + software + services models (RaaS/IoT/robotics/consumer tech/industrial tech).
• Lease accounting familiarity.
• Experience tying cloud/GPU/compute usage to unit economics and product profitability.
• Experience supporting fundraising diligence and investor reporting.
